to the sequence C<die 'BANG' if $BANG> in any piece of code following a
C<use BANG;> statement (until the next C<no BANG;> statement, if any):
- package BANG;
+ package BANG;
- use Filter::Util::Call ;
-
- sub import {
- filter_add( sub {
- my $caller = caller;
- my ($status, $no_seen, $data);
- while ($status = filter_read()) {
- if (/^\s*no\s+$caller\s*;\s*?$/) {
- $no_seen=1;

- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g
- unless $status < 0;

- })

+
+ sub import {

+ my $caller = caller;
+ my ($status, $no_seen, $data);
+ while ($status = filter_read()) {

+ $no_seen=1;

}
+ $_ = $data;
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g
+ unless $status < 0;
+ $_ .= "no $class;\n" if $no_seen;

- }

This level of sophistication puts filtering out of the reach of
many programmers.
In other words, the previous example, would become:
- package BANG;
- use Filter::Simple;
-
- FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- };
+ package BANG;
+ use Filter::Simple;
+
+ FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ };
- 1 ;
+ 1 ;
Note that the source code is passed as a single string, so any regex that
uses C<^> or C<$> to detect line boundaries will need the C</m> flag.
By default, the installed filter only filters up to a line consisting of one of
the three standard source "terminators":
- no ModuleName; # optional comment
+ no ModuleName; # optional comment
or:
- __END__
+ __END__
or:
- __DATA__
+ __DATA__
but this can be altered by passing a second argument to C<use Filter::Simple>
or C<FILTER> (just remember: there's I<no> comma after the initial block when
For example, to cause the previous filter to filter only up to a line of the
form:
- GNAB esu;
+ GNAB esu;
you would write:
- package BANG;
- use Filter::Simple;
-
- FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- }
- qr/^\s*GNAB\s+esu\s*;\s*?$/;
+ package BANG;
+ use Filter::Simple;
+
+ FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ }
+ qr/^\s*GNAB\s+esu\s*;\s*?$/;
or:
- FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- }
- { terminator => qr/^\s*GNAB\s+esu\s*;\s*?$/ };
+ FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ }
+ { terminator => qr/^\s*GNAB\s+esu\s*;\s*?$/ };
and to prevent the filter's being turned off in any way:
- package BANG;
- use Filter::Simple;
-
- FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- }
- ""; # or: 0
+ package BANG;
+ use Filter::Simple;
+
+ FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ }
+ ""; # or: 0
or:
- FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- }
- { terminator => "" };
+ FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ }
+ { terminator => "" };
B<Note that, no matter what you set the terminator pattern to,
the actual terminator itself I<must> be contained on a single source line.>
Separating the loading of Filter::Simple:
- use Filter::Simple;
+ use Filter::Simple;
from the setting up of the filtering:
- FILTER { ... };
+ FILTER { ... };
is useful because it allows other code (typically parser support code
or caching variables) to be defined before the filter is invoked.
any terminator specification directly to the C<use> statement that loads
Filter::Simple, like so:
- use Filter::Simple sub {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- };
+ use Filter::Simple sub {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ };
This is exactly the same as:
- use Filter::Simple;
- BEGIN {
- Filter::Simple::FILTER {
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
- };
- }
+ use Filter::Simple;
+ BEGIN {
+ Filter::Simple::FILTER {
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g;
+ };
+ }
except that the C<FILTER> subroutine is not exported by Filter::Simple.
One of the problems with a filter like:
- use Filter::Simple;
+ use Filter::Simple;
- FILTER { s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g };
+ FILTER { s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g };
is that it indiscriminately applies the specified transformation to
the entire text of your source program. So something like:
- warn 'BANG BANG, YOU'RE DEAD';
- BANG BANG;
+ warn 'BANG BANG, YOU'RE DEAD';
+ BANG BANG;
will become:
- warn 'die 'BANG' if $BANG, YOU'RE DEAD';
- die 'BANG' if $BANG;
+ warn 'die 'BANG' if $BANG, YOU'RE DEAD';
+ die 'BANG' if $BANG;
It is very common when filtering source to only want to apply the filter
to the non-character-string parts of the code, or alternatively to I<only>
(and possibly multiple) filters that act on only parts of the source code.
For example:
- use Filter::Simple;
+ use Filter::Simple;
- FILTER_ONLY
- code => sub { s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g },
- quotelike => sub { s/BANG\s+BANG/CHITTY CHITTY/g };
+ FILTER_ONLY
+ code => sub { s/BANG\s+BANG/die 'BANG' if \$BANG/g },
+ quotelike => sub { s/BANG\s+BANG/CHITTY CHITTY/g };
The C<"code"> subroutine will only be used to filter parts of the source
code that are not quotelikes, POD, or C<__DATA__>. The C<quotelike>
Filters only those sections of the source code that are not quotelikes, POD, or
C<__DATA__>.
+=item C<"code_no_comments">
+
+Filters only those sections of the source code that are not quotelikes, POD,
+comments, or C<__DATA__>.
+
=item C<"executable">
Filters only those sections of the source code that are not POD or C<__DATA__>.
+=item C<"executable_no_comments">
+
+Filters only those sections of the source code that are not POD, comments, or C<__DATA__>.
+
=item C<"quotelike">
Filters only Perl quotelikes (as interpreted by
macro-preprocessor that is only applied within regexes,
with a final debugging pass that prints the resulting source code:
- use Regexp::Common;
- FILTER_ONLY
- regex => sub { s/!\[/[^/g },
- regex => sub { s/%d/$RE{num}{int}/g },
- regex => sub { s/%f/$RE{num}{real}/g },
- all => sub { print if $::DEBUG };
+ use Regexp::Common;
+ FILTER_ONLY
+ regex => sub { s/!\[/[^/g },
+ regex => sub { s/%d/$RE{num}{int}/g },
+ regex => sub { s/%f/$RE{num}{real}/g },
+ all => sub { print if $::DEBUG };
Most source code ceases to be grammatically correct when it is broken up
into the pieces between string literals and regexes. So the C<'code'>
-component filter behaves slightly differently from the other partial filters
-described in the previous section.
+and C<'code_no_comments'> component filter behave slightly differently

Rather than calling the specified processor on each individual piece of

This approach makes it comparatively easy to write code preprocessors

moved and re-ordered within the source code as needed.
-Once the filtering has been applied, the original strings, regexes,
-POD, etc. are re-inserted into the code, by replacing each

+Once the filtering has been applied, the original strings, regexes, POD,
+etc. are re-inserted into the code, by replacing each placeholder with
+the corresponding original component (from C<@components>). Note that
+this means that the C<@components> variable must be treated with extreme

+interstitial source code between placeholders. If the placeholder
+backtranslations are altered in C<@components>, they will be similarly
+changed when the placeholders are removed from C<$_> after the filter

For example, the following filter detects concatentated pairs of
strings/quotelikes and reverses the order in which they are
concatenated:
- package DemoRevCat;
- use Filter::Simple;
+ package DemoRevCat;
+ use Filter::Simple;
- FILTER_ONLY code => sub { my $ph = $Filter::Simple::placeholder;
- s{ ($ph) \s* [.] \s* ($ph) }{ $2.$1 }gx
- };
+ FILTER_ONLY code => sub {
+ my $ph = $Filter::Simple::placeholder;
+ s{ ($ph) \s* [.] \s* ($ph) }{ $2.$1 }gx
+ };
Thus, the following code:
- use DemoRevCat;
+ use DemoRevCat;
- my $str = "abc" . q(def);
+ my $str = "abc" . q(def);
- print "$str\n";
+ print "$str\n";
would become:
- my $str = q(def)."abc";
+ my $str = q(def)."abc";
- print "$str\n";
+ print "$str\n";
and hence print:
- defabc
+ defabc
=head2 Using Filter::Simple with an explicit C<import> subroutine
I<must> be declared I<before> the filter is installed. If you use C<FILTER>
to install the filter:
- package Filter::TurnItUpTo11;
+ package Filter::TurnItUpTo11;
- use Filter::Simple;
+ use Filter::Simple;

that will almost never be a problem, but if you install a filtering
subroutine by passing it directly to the C<use Filter::Simple>
statement:
- package Filter::TurnItUpTo11;
+ package Filter::TurnItUpTo11;
- use Filter::Simple sub{ s/(\w+)/\U$1/ };
+ use Filter::Simple sub{ s/(\w+)/\U$1/ };
then you must make sure that your C<import> subroutine appears before
that C<use> statement.
Likewise, Filter::Simple is also smart enough
to Do The Right Thing if you use Exporter:
- package Switch;
- use base Exporter;
- use Filter::Simple;
+ package Switch;
+ use base Exporter;
+ use Filter::Simple;
- @EXPORT = qw(switch case);
- @EXPORT_OK = qw(given when);
+ @EXPORT = qw(switch case);
+ @EXPORT_OK = qw(given when);
- FILTER { $_ = magic_Perl_filter($_) }
+ FILTER { $_ = magic_Perl_filter($_) }
Immediately after the filter has been applied to the source,
Filter::Simple will pass control to Exporter, so it can do its magic too.
list to the filtering subroutine, so the BANG.pm filter could easily
be made parametric:
- package BANG;
+ package BANG;
- use Filter::Simple;
-
- FILTER {
- my ($die_msg, $var_name) = @_;
- s/BANG\s+BANG/die '$die_msg' if \${$var_name}/g;
- };
+ use Filter::Simple;
+
+ FILTER {
+ my ($die_msg, $var_name) = @_;
+ s/BANG\s+BANG/die '$die_msg' if \${$var_name}/g;
+ };
- # and in some user code:
+ # and in some user code:
- use BANG "BOOM", "BAM"; # "BANG BANG" becomes: die 'BOOM' if $BAM
+ use BANG "BOOM", "BAM"; # "BANG BANG" becomes: die 'BOOM' if $BAM
The specified filtering subroutine is called every time a C<use BANG> is
