# NAME Open::This - Try to Do the Right Thing when opening files # VERSION version 0.000007 # DESCRIPTION This module powers the `ot` command line script, which tries to do the right thing when opening a file. Imagine your `$ENV{EDITOR}` is set to `vim`. (This should also work for `emacs` and `nano`.) The following examples demonstrate how your input is translated when launching your editor. ot Foo::Bar # vim lib/Foo/Bar.pm ot Foo::Bar # vim t/lib/Foo/Bar.pm Imagine this module has a `sub do_something` at line 55. ot "Foo::Bar::do_something()" # vim +55 lib/Foo/Bar.pm Or, when copy/pasting from a stack trace. (Note that you do not need quotes in this case.) ot Foo::Bar line 36 # vim +36 lib/Foo/Bar.pm Copy/pasting a `git-grep` result. ot lib/Foo/Bar.pm:99 # vim +99 Foo/Bar.pm # FUNCTIONS ## parse\_text Given a scalar value or an array of scalars, this function will try to extract useful information from it. Returns a hashref on success. Returns undef on failure. `file_name` is the only hash key which is guaranteed to be in the hash. use Open::This qw( parse_text ); my $parsed = parse_text('t/lib/Foo/Bar.pm:32'); # $parsed = { file_name => 't/lib/Foo/Bar.pm', line_number => 32, } my $with_sub_name = parse_text( 'Foo::Bar::do_something()' ); # $with_sub_name = { # file_name => 't/lib/Foo/Bar.pm', # line_number => 3, # sub_name => 'do_something', # }; ## to\_editor\_args Given a scalar value, this calls `parse_text()` and returns an array of values which can be passed at the command line to an editor. my @args = to_editor_args('Foo::Bar::do_something()'); # @args = ( '+3', 't/lib/Foo/Bar.pm' ); # ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES By default, `ot` will search your `lib` and `t/lib` directories for local files. You can override this via the `$ENV{OPEN_THIS_LIBS}` variable. It accepts a comma-separated list of libs. # AUTHOR Olaf Alders # COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2018 by Olaf Alders.
