This module lets you use parameter lists in your subroutines. Thanks to
-L<perlapi/PL_keyword_plugin> it works without source filters.
+L<PL_keyword_plugin|perlapi/PL_keyword_plugin> it works without source filters.
WARNING: This is my first attempt at writing L<XS code|perlxs> and I have
almost no experience with perl's internals. So while this module might
The effect of C<fun foo($bar, $baz) {> is as if you'd written
C<sub foo { my ($bar, $baz) = @_; >, i.e. the parameter list is simply

+copied into L<my|perlfunc/my-EXPR> and initialized from L<@_|perlvar/"@_">.
In addition you can use C<method>, which understands the same syntax as C<fun>
but automatically creates a C<$self> variable for you. So by writing
=head2 Customizing the generated keywords
-You can customize the names of the keywords injected in your package. To do that
-you pass a hash reference in the import list:
+You can customize the names of the keywords injected into your scope. To do
+that you pass a reference to a hash mapping keywords to types in the import
+list:
+
+ use Function::Parameters {
+ KEYWORD1 => TYPE1,
+ KEYWORD2 => TYPE2,
+ ...
+ };
+
+Or more concretely:
use Function::Parameters { proc => 'function', meth => 'method' }; # -or-
use Function::Parameters { proc => 'function' }; # -or-
- use Function::Parameters { meth => 'method' };
+ use Function::Parameters { meth => 'method' }; # etc.
The first line creates two keywords, C<proc> and C<meth> (for defining
functions and methods, respectively). The last two lines only create one
-keyword. Generally the hash keys can be any identifiers you want while the
-values have to be either C<function>, C<method>, or a hash reference (see
-below). The difference between C<function> and C<method> is that C<method>s

+keyword. Generally the hash keys (keywords) can be any identifiers you want
+while the values (types) have to be either a hash reference (see below) or
+C<'function'>, C<'method'>, C<'classmethod'>, C<'function_strict'>,
+C<'method_strict'>, or C<'classmethod_strict'>. The main difference between
+C<'function'> and C<'method'> is that C<'method'>s automatically
+L<shift|perlfunc/shift> their first argument into C<$self> (C<'classmethod'>s
+are similar but shift into C<$class>).
The following shortcuts are available:

+The following shortcuts are deprecated and may be removed from a future version
+of this module:
+
+ # DEPRECATED
use Function::Parameters 'foo';
# is equivalent to #
use Function::Parameters { 'foo' => 'function' };
=pod
+ # DEPRECATED
use Function::Parameters 'foo', 'bar';
# is equivalent to #
use Function::Parameters { 'foo' => 'function', 'bar' => 'method' };
-You can customize things even more by passing a hashref instead of C<function>
-or C<method>. This hash can have the following keys:
+That is, if you want to pass arguments to L<Function::Parameters>, use a
+hashref, not a list of strings.

+You can customize the properties of the generated keywords even more by passing

=over
Valid values: strings that look like a scalar variable. Any function created by
this keyword will automatically L<shift|perlfunc/shift> its first argument into
-a local variable with the name specified here.
+a local variable whose name is specified here.
+
+=item C<attributes>, C<attrs>
+
+Valid values: strings that are valid source code for attributes. Any value
+specified here will be inserted as a subroutine attribute in the generated
+code. Thus:
+
+ use Function::Parameters { sub_l => { attributes => ':lvalue' } };
+ sub_l foo() {
+ ...
+ }
+
+turns into
+
+ sub foo :lvalue {
+ ...
+ }
+
+It is recommended that you use C<attributes> in new code but C<attrs> is also
+accepted for now.
+
+=item C<default_arguments>
+
+Valid values: booleans. This property is on by default, so you have to pass
+C<< default_arguments => 0 >> to turn it off. If it is disabled, using C<=> in
+a parameter list causes a syntax error. Otherwise it lets you specify
+default arguments directly in the parameter list:
+
+ fun foo($x, $y = 42, $z = []) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+turns into
+
+ sub foo {
+ my ($x, $y, $z) = @_;
+ $y = 42 if @_ < 2;
+ $z = [] if @_ < 3;
+ ...
+ }
+
+You can even refer to previous parameters in the same parameter list:
+
+ print fun ($x, $y = $x + 1) { "$x and $y" }->(9); # "9 and 10"
+
+This also works with the implicit first parameter of methods:
+
+ method scale($factor = $self->default_factor) {
+ $self->{amount} *= $factor;
+ }
+
+=item C<check_argument_count>
+
+Valid values: booleans. This property is off by default. If it is enabled, the
+generated code will include checks to make sure the number of passed arguments
+is correct (and otherwise throw an exception via L<Carp::croak|Carp>):
+
+ fun foo($x, $y = 42, $z = []) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+turns into
+
+ sub foo {
+ Carp::croak "Not enough arguments for fun foo" if @_ < 1;
+ Carp::croak "Too many arguments for fun foo" if @_ > 3;
+ my ($x, $y, $z) = @_;
+ $y = 42 if @_ < 2;
+ $z = [] if @_ < 3;
+ ...
+ }

-Plain C<function> is equivalent to C<< { name => 'optional' } >>, and plain

+=head2 Syntax and generated code
Normally, Perl subroutines are not in scope in their own body, meaning the
-parser doesn't know the name C<foo> or its prototype while processing
-C<sub foo ($) { foo $bar[1], $bar[0]; }>, parsing it as
+parser doesn't know the name C<foo> or its prototype while processing the body
+of C<sub foo ($) { foo $bar[1], $bar[0]; }>, parsing it as
C<$bar-E<gt>foo([1], $bar[0])>. Yes. You can add parens to change the
interpretation of this code, but C<foo($bar[1], $bar[0])> will only trigger
a I<foo() called too early to check prototype> warning. This module attempts
-to fix all of this by adding a subroutine declaration before the definition,
+to fix all of this by adding a subroutine declaration before the function body,
so the parser knows the name (and possibly prototype) while it processes the
body. Thus C<fun foo($x) :($) { $x }> really turns into
-C<sub foo ($); sub foo ($) { my ($x) = @_; $x }>.
+C<sub foo ($) { sub foo ($); my ($x) = @_; $x }>.
-If you need L<subroutine attributes|perlsub/"Subroutine Attributes">, you can
+If you need L<subroutine attributes|perlsub/Subroutine-Attributes>, you can
put them after the parameter list with their usual syntax.
Syntactically, these new parameter lists live in the spot normally occupied
by L<prototypes|perlsub/"Prototypes">. However, you can include a prototype by
specifying it as the first attribute (this is syntactically unambiguous
-because normal attributes have to start with a letter).
+because normal attributes have to start with a letter while a prototype starts
+with C<(>).
+
+As an example, the following declaration uses every available feature
+(subroutine name, parameter list, default arguments, prototype, default
+attributes, attributes, argument count checks, and implicit C<$self>):
+
+ method foo($x, $y, $z = sqrt 5) :($$$;$) :lvalue :Banana(2 + 2) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+And here's what it turns into:
+
+ sub foo ($$$;$) :method :lvalue :Banana(2 + 2) {
+ sub foo ($$$;$);
+ Carp::croak "Not enough arguments for method foo" if @_ < 2;
+ Carp::croak "Too many arguments for method foo" if @_ > 4;
+ my $self = shift;
+ my ($x, $y, $z) = @_;
+ $z = sqrt 5 if @_ < 3;
+ ...
+ }
+
+Another example:
+
+ my $coderef = fun ($p, $q) :(;$$)
+ :lvalue
+ :Gazebo((>:O)) {
+ ...
+ };
+
+And the generated code:
+
+ my $coderef = sub (;$$) :lvalue :Gazebo((>:O)) {
+ # vvv only if check_argument_count is enabled vvv
+ Carp::croak "Not enough arguments for fun (anon)" if @_ < 2;
+ Carp::croak "Too many arguments for fun (anon)" if @_ > 2;
+ # ^^^ ^^^
+ my ($p, $q) = @_;
+ ...
+ };

+=head2 Wrapping Function::Parameters
If you want to wrap L<Function::Parameters>, you just have to call its
C<import> method. It always applies to the file that is currently being parsed
-and its effects are lexical (i.e. it works like L<warnings> or L<strict>);
-
- package Some::Wrapper;
- use Function::Parameters ();
- sub import {
- Function::Parameters->import;
- # or Function::Parameters->import(@other_import_args);
- }
+and its effects are L<lexical|perlpragma> (i.e. it works like L<warnings> or
+L<strict>).
+
+ package Some::Wrapper;
+ use Function::Parameters ();
+ sub import {
+ Function::Parameters->import;
+ # or Function::Parameters->import(@custom_import_args);
+ }
