It has been optimized for performance to not import all features right away: thereby making its startup cost quite low. ## How to Import This module will overwrite existing methods of the same name (which triggers a warning)! Should this happen and it is not desired, simply import this module first. Should you prefer the methods in this module, import this module last (if needed, at the end of the file). # SUBROUTINES ## Investigation ### repl Add a breakpoint using [Runtime::Debugger](https://metacpan.org/pod/Runtime%3A%3ADebugger). Basically inserts a Read Evaluate Print Loop. Version 0 was basically: while ( 1 ) { my $input = <STDIN>; last if $input eq 'q'; eval "$input"; } (Much more powerful since then). Enable to analyze code in the process. CODE ... # Breakpoint use e; repl CODE ... Simple debugger on the command line: $ perl -Me -e 'repl' ### trace Show a stack trace. trace( OPTIONS ) OPTIONS: -levels => NUM, # How many scope levels to show. NUM, # Same. -raw => 1, # Include internal calls. -NUM, # Same. -message => STR, # Message to display. STR, # Same. ### watch Watch a reference for changes. watch( $ref, OPTIONS ) OPTIONS: -clone => 0, # Will not watch cloned objects. -methods => "fetch", # Monitor just this method. -methods => [ "fetch" ], # Same. -levels => NUM, # How many scope levels to show. NUM, # Same. -raw => 1, # Include internal calls. -NUM, # Same. -message => STR, # Message to display. STR, # Same. ### prof Profile the code from this point on. my $obj = prof; ... # $obj goes out of scope and builds results. ### n Benchmark and compare different pieces of code. Time single block of code. n sub{ ... }; n sub{ ... }, 100000; # Compare blocks of code. n { slow => sub{ ... }, fast => sub{ ... }, }; n { slow => sub{ ... }, fast => sub{ ... }, }, 10000; $ perl -Me -e '$v = 333; n { concat => sub { 111 . $v }, interp => sub { "111$v" }, list => sub { 111,$v } }, 100000000' Rate interp concat list interp 55248619/s -- -6% -62% concat 58479532/s 6% -- -60% list 144927536/s 162% 148% -- ## Format Conversions ### j JSON Parser. my $bytes = j([1, 2, 3]); my $bytes = j({foo => 'bar'}); my $value = j($bytes); Encode Perl data structure or decode JSON with ["j" in Mojo::JSON](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AJSON#j). Convert Perl object to JSON string: $ perl -Me -e 'say j { a => [1..3]}' Convert JSON string to Perl object: $ perl -Me -e 'p j q({"a":[1,2,3]})' ### x XML parser. my $dom = x('<div>Hello!</div>'); Turn HTML/XML input into [Mojo::DOM](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3ADOM) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say x("<div>hey</dev>")->at("div")->text' Force HTML semantics: $ perl -Me -e 'say x->xml(0)->parse("<Tag>Name</Tag>")' <tag>Name</tag> Force XML semantics (case sensitive tags and more): $ perl -Me -e 'say x->xml(1)->parse("<Tag>Name</Tag>")' <Tag>Name</Tag> ### yml YAML parser. Convert Perl object to YAML string: $ perl -Me -e 'say yml { a => [1..3]}' Convert YAML string to Perl object: $ perl -Me -e 'p yml "---\na:\n- 1\n- 2\n- 3"' ### clone Storable's deep clone. $ perl -Me -e ' my $arr1 = [ 1..3 ]; my $arr2 = clone $arr1; $arr2->[0] = 111; say $arr1; p $arr1; say ""; say $arr2; p $arr2; ' # Output: ARRAY(0x5d0b8a408518) [ [0] 1, [1] 2, [2] 3, ] ARRAY(0x5d0b8a42d9e0) [ [0] 111, [1] 2, [2] 3, ] ### enc Encode UTF-8 code point to a byte stream: $ perl -Me -e 'printf "%#X\n", ord for split //, enc "\x{5D0}"' 0XD7 0X90 ### dec Decode a byte steam to UTF-8 code point: $ perl -C -Me -e 'say dec "\xD7\x90"' × ### utf8 Set STDOUT and STDERR as UTF-8 encoded. If given a filehandle, will set the encoding for it to UTF-8. utf8($fh); ## Enhanced Types ### b Work with strings. my $stream = b('lalala'); Turn string into a [Mojo::ByteStream](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AByteStream) object. $ perl -Me -e 'b(g("mojolicious.org")->body)->html_unescape->say' ### c Work with arrays. my $collection = c(1, 2, 3); Turn list into a [Mojo::Collection](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3ACollection) object. ### set Work with sets. my $set = set(2,4,6,4); Turn list into a [Set::Scalar](https://metacpan.org/pod/Set%3A%3AScalar) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say set(2,4,6,2)' (2 4 6) Get elements: $ perl -Me -e 'say for sort(set(2,4,6,2)->elements)' $ perl -Me -e 'say for sort(set(2,4,6,2)->@*)' 2 4 6 Check for existence of an element: $ perl -Me -e 'say set(2,4,6,2)->has(7)' $ perl -Me -e 'say set(2,4,6,2)->has(4)' 1 Intersection: $ perl -Me -e 'say set(2,4,6,2) * set(3,4,5,6)' (4 6) Create a new universe: # Universe 1: # ...

Operations: set value $a (a b c d e _ _ _ _) $b (_ _ c d e f g _ _) $c (_ _ _ _ e f g h i) union: $a + $b (a b c d e f g _ _) union: $a + $b + $c (a b c d e f g h i) intersection: $a * $b (_ _ c d e _ _ _ _) intersection: $a * $b * $c (_ _ _ _ e _ _ _ _) difference: $a - $b (a b _ _ _ _ _ _ _) difference: $a - $b - $c (a b _ _ _ _ _ _ _) unique: $a % $b (a b _ _ _ f g _ _) symm_diff: $a / $b (a b _ _ _ f g _ _) complement: -$a (_ _ c d e f g h i) ## Files Convenience ### f Work with files. my $path = f('/home/sri/foo.txt'); Turn string into a [Mojo::File](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AFile) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say r j f("hello.json")->slurp' ## List Support ### max Get the biggest number in a list. $ perl -Me -e 'say max 2,4,1,3' 4 ### min Get the smallest number in a list. $ perl -Me -e 'say max 2,4,1,3' 1 ### sum Adds a list of numbers. $ perl -Me -e 'say sum 1..10' 55 ### uniq Get the unique values in a list. $ perl -Me -e 'say for uniq 2,4,4,6' 2 4 6 ## Output ### say Obnoxious print with a newline. $ perl -Me -e 'say 123' $ perl -Me -e 'say for 1..3' Always sends output to the terminal even when STDOUT and/or STDERR are redirected: $ perl -Me -e ' say "Shown before"; close *STDOUT; close *STDERR; say "Shown with no stdout/err"; print "Print not seen\n"; ' 111 222 ### p Pretty data printer. $ perl -Me -e 'p [1..3]' ### np Return pretty printer data. $ perl -Me -e 'my $v = np [1..3]; say "got: $v"' Can be used with `say` to output to the terminal (incase STDOUT/STDERR are redirected): $ perl -Me -e ' close *STDOUT; close *STDERR; say np [ 1.. 3 ]; ' ### d Data dumper. $ perl -Me -e 'd [1..3]' ### dd Internal data dumper. $ perl -Me -e 'dd [1..3]' ### dye Color a string. $ perl -Me -e 'say dye 123, "RED"' ### table Print data as a table: $ perl -Me -e 'table( [qw(key value)], [qw(red 111)], [qw(blue 222)] )' +------+-------+ | key | value | +------+-------+ | red | 111 | | blue | 222 | +------+-------+ Context sensitive! - Void - output table. - List - return individual lines. - Scalar - return entire table as a string. ## Web Related ### g my $res = g('example.com'); my $res = g('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => 'Hi!'); my $res = g('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => form => {a => 'b'}); my $res = g('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => json => {a => 'b'}); Perform `GET` request with ["get" in Mojo::UserAgent](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AUserAgent#get) and return resulting [Mojo::Message::Response](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AMessage%3A%3AResponse) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say g("mojolicious.org")->dom("h1")->map("text")->join("\n")' ### post my $res = post('example.com'); my $res = post('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => 'Hi!'); my $res = post('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => form => {a => 'b'}); my $res = post('http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => json => {a => 'b'}); Perform `POST` request with ["get" in Mojo::UserAgent](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AUserAgent#get) and return resulting [Mojo::Message::Response](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AMessage%3A%3AResponse) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say post("mojolicious.org")->dom("h1")->map("text")->join("\n")' ### l Work with URLs. my $url = l('https://mojolicious.org'); Turn a string into a [Mojo::URL](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AURL) object. $ perl -Me -e 'say l("/perldoc")->to_abs(l("https://mojolicious.org"))' ## Asynchronous This sector includes commands to run asynchronous (or pseudo-async) operations. It is not entirely clear which method to always use. `runf` limits to number of action or 20 (whichever is smaller). `runt` and `runio` have no such limits. Typically using threads (with `runt`) seems to be fastest. Some statistics using different run commands: $ gitb status -d s/iter runt runio runf series runt 1.74 -- -35% -59% -74% runio 1.12 55% -- -36% -59% runf 0.716 142% 56% -- -36% series 0.456 281% 146% 57% -- $ gitb branch -d Rate runt runf series runio runt 0.592/s -- -71% -81% -83% runf 2.02/s 240% -- -34% -42% series 3.05/s 415% 51% -- -12% runio 3.47/s 486% 72% 14% -- $ gitb pull -d s/iter runio series runt runf runio 4.27 -- -7% -21% -33% series 3.97 8% -- -15% -28% runt 3.38 26% 17% -- -15% runf 2.87 49% 38% 18% -- ### runf Run tasks in parallel using [Parallel::ForkManager](https://metacpan.org/pod/Parallel%3A%3AForkManager). Returns the results. $ perl -Me -e ' p { runf map { my $n = $_; sub{ $n => $n**2 }; } 1..5 } ' { 1 => 1, 2 => 4, 3 => 9, 4 => 16, 5 => 25, } Takes much overhead to start up! Will use up to 20 processes. ### runio Run tasks in parallel using [Mojo::IOLoop](https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo%3A%3AIOLoop). Returns the results. $ perl -Me -e ' p { runio map { my $n = $_; sub{ $n => $n**2 }; } 1..5 } ' { 1 => 1, 2 => 4, 3 => 9, 4 => 16, 5 => 25, } This is apparently better to use for IO related tasks. ### runt Run tasks in parallel using [threads](https://metacpan.org/pod/threads). Returns the results. $ perl -Me -e ' p { runt map { my $n = $_; sub{ $n => $n**2 }; } 1..5 } ' { 1 => 1, 2 => 4, 3 => 9, 4 => 16, 5 => 25, } This is the fastest run\* command usually. ## Package Tools ### monkey\_patch Insert subroutines into the symbol table. Extracted from Mojo::Util for performance. Imports method(s) into another package (as done in this module): Take a look at the import method for an example. ### pod Work with perl pod. ### import Imports a DSL into another package. Can be used in a sub class to import this class plus its own commands like this: package e2; use parent qw( e ); sub import { shift->SUPER::import( scalar caller, my_command_1 => sub {}, my_command_2 => sub {}, my_command_3 => sub {}, ); } # AUTHOR Tim Potapov, `<tim.potapov[AT]gmail.com>` # BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to [https://github.com/poti1/e/issues](https://github.com/poti1/e/issues). # SUPPORT You can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command. perldoc e You can also look for information at: [https://metacpan.org/pod/e](https://metacpan.org/pod/e) [https://github.com/poti1/e](https://github.com/poti1/e) Logo was generated using: [https://emojicombos.com/dot-art-editor](https://emojicombos.com/dot-art-editor) # LICENSE AND COPYRIGHT This software is Copyright (c) 2024 by Tim Potapov.
