56 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
57 | |
de673bbf |
58 | =head2 Keeping packages clean |
59 | |
40aef9d6 |
60 | When you define a function, or import one, into a Perl package, it will |
61 | naturally also be available as a method. This does not per se cause |
62 | problems, but it can complicate subclassing and, for example, plugin |
6c0ece9b |
63 | classes that are included via multiple inheritance by loading them as |
64 | base classes. |
40aef9d6 |
65 | |
66 | The C<namespace::clean> pragma will remove all previously declared or |
67 | imported symbols at the end of the current package's compile cycle. |
6c0ece9b |
68 | Functions called in the package itself will still be bound by their |
69 | name, but they won't show up as methods on your class or instances. |
70 | |
71 | By unimporting via C<no> you can tell C<namespace::clean> to start |
72 | collecting functions for the next C<use namespace::clean;> specification. |
40aef9d6 |
73 | |
53e92ec5 |
74 | You can use the C<-except> flag to tell C<namespace::clean> that you |
472d4b1e |
75 | don't want it to remove a certain function or method. A common use would |
76 | be a module exporting an C<import> method along with some functions: |
53e92ec5 |
77 | |
78 | use ModuleExportingImport; |
79 | use namespace::clean -except => [qw( import )]; |
80 | |
472d4b1e |
81 | If you just want to C<-except> a single sub, you can pass it directly. |
82 | For more than one value you have to use an array reference. |
83 | |
de673bbf |
84 | =head2 Explicitely removing functions when your scope is compiled |
85 | |
86 | It is also possible to explicitely tell C<namespace::clean> what packages |
87 | to remove when the surrounding scope has finished compiling. Here is an |
88 | example: |
89 | |
90 | package Foo; |
91 | use strict; |
92 | |
93 | # blessed NOT available |
94 | |
95 | sub my_class { |
96 | use Scalar::Util qw( blessed ); |
97 | use namespace::clean qw( blessed ); |
98 | |
99 | # blessed available |
100 | return blessed shift; |
101 | } |
102 | |
103 | # blessed NOT available |
104 | |
1a1be5dc |
105 | =head2 Moose |
106 | |
107 | When using C<namespace::clean> together with L<Moose> you want to keep |
108 | the installed C<meta> method. So your classes should look like: |
109 | |
110 | package Foo; |
111 | use Moose; |
112 | use namespace::clean -except => 'meta'; |
113 | ... |
114 | |
115 | Same goes for L<Moose::Role>. |
116 | |
fcfe7810 |
117 | =head2 Cleaning other packages |
118 | |
119 | You can tell C<namespace::clean> that you want to clean up another package |
120 | instead of the one importing. To do this you have to pass in the C<-cleanee> |
121 | option like this: |
122 | |
123 | package My::MooseX::namespace::clean; |
124 | use strict; |
125 | |
126 | use namespace::clean (); # no cleanup, just load |
127 | |
128 | sub import { |
129 | namespace::clean->import( |
130 | -cleanee => scalar(caller), |
131 | -except => 'meta', |
132 | ); |
133 | } |
134 | |
135 | If you don't care about C<namespace::clean>s discover-and-C<-except> logic, and |
136 | just want to remove subroutines, try L</clean_subroutines>. |
137 | |
40aef9d6 |
138 | =head1 METHODS |
139 | |
140 | You shouldn't need to call any of these. Just C<use> the package at the |
141 | appropriate place. |

146 | |
fcfe7810 |
147 | This exposes the actual subroutine-removal logic. |
148 | |
149 | namespace::clean->clean_subroutines($cleanee, qw( subA subB )); |
150 | |
151 | will remove C<subA> and C<subB> from C<$cleanee>. Note that this will remove the |
152 | subroutines B<immediately> and not wait for scope end. If you want to have this |
153 | effect at a specific time (e.g. C<namespace::clean> acts on scope compile end) |
154 | it is your responsibility to make sure it runs at that time. |

319 | =head1 BUGS |
320 | |
321 | C<namespace::clean> will clobber any formats that have the same name as |
322 | a deleted sub. This is due to a bug in perl that makes it impossible to |
323 | re-assign the FORMAT ref into a new glob. |
324 | |
6c0ece9b |
325 | =head1 IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS |
326 | |
327 | This module works through the effect that a |
328 | |
329 | delete $SomePackage::{foo}; |
330 | |
331 | will remove the C<foo> symbol from C<$SomePackage> for run time lookups |
332 | (e.g., method calls) but will leave the entry alive to be called by |
472d4b1e |
333 | already resolved names in the package itself. C<namespace::clean> will |
334 | restore and therefor in effect keep all glob slots that aren't C<CODE>. |
6c0ece9b |
335 | |
336 | A test file has been added to the perl core to ensure that this behaviour |
337 | will be stable in future releases. |
338 | |
339 | Just for completeness sake, if you want to remove the symbol completely, |
340 | use C<undef> instead. |
