=head1 NAME
Data::Phrasebook::Loader::Text - Absract your phrases with plain text files.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Data::Phrasebook;
my $q = Data::Phrasebook->new(
class => 'Fnerk',
loader => 'Text',
file => 'phrases.txt',
);
# use default delimiters (:variable)
my $phrase = $q->fetch($keyword,{variable => 'substitute'});
# use Template Toolkit style delimiters
$q->delimiters( qr{ \[% \s* (\w+) \s* %\] }x );
my $phrase = $q->fetch($keyword,{variable => 'substitute'});
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This loader plugin implements phrasebook patterns using plain text files.
Phrases can be contained within one or more dictionaries, with each phrase
accessible via a unique key. Phrases may contain placeholders, please see
L<Data::Phrasebook> for an explanation of how to use these. Groups of phrases
are kept in a dictionary. In this implementation a single file is one
complete dictionary.
An example plain text file:
foo=Welcome to :my world. It is a nice :place.
Within the phrase text placeholders can be used, which are then replaced with
the appropriate values once the get() method is called. The default style of
placeholders can be altered using the delimiters() method.
=head1 INHERITANCE
L<Data::Phrasebook::Loader::Text> inherits from the base class
L<Data::Phrasebook::Loader::Base>.
See that module for other available methods and documentation.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 load
Given a C<file>, load it. C<file> must contain a valid phrase map.
my $file = 'english.txt';
$loader->load( $file );
This method is used internally by L<Data::Phrasebook::Generic>'s
C<data> method, to initialise the data store.
To utilise the dictionary framework for a Plain Text phrasebook, the idea is
to use a directory of files, where the directory is passed via the C<file>
argument and the dictionary, the specific name of the file, is passed via
the C<dictionary> argument.
my $file = '/tmp/phrasebooks';
my $dictionary = 'english.txt';
$loader->load( $file, $dictionary );
=cut
my %phrasebook;
sub load {
my ($class, $file, @dict) = @_;
$class->store(3,"->load IN - @_") if($class->debug);
$file ||= $class->{parent}->file;
@dict = $class->{parent}->dict unless(@dict);
croak "No file given as argument!" unless defined $file;
my @file;
if(@dict) {
while(@dict) {
my $dict = pop @dict; # build phrases in reverse order
$dict = "$file/$dict";
croak "File [$dict] not accessible!" unless -f $dict && -r $dict;
push @file, $dict;
}
} else {
croak "File [$file] not accessible!" unless -f $file && -r $file;
push @file, $file;
}
%phrasebook = (); # ignore previous dictionary
for my $file (@file) {
my $book = IO::File->new($file) or next;
while(<$book>) {
my ($name,$value) = (/(.*?)=(.*)/);
$phrasebook{$name} = $value if($name); # value can be blank
}
$book->close;
}
return;
}
=head2 get
Returns the phrase stored in the phrasebook, for a given keyword.
my $value = $loader->get( $key );
=cut
sub get {
my ($class, $key) = @_;
if($class->debug) {
$class->store(3,"->get IN");
$class->store(4,"->get key=[$key]");
$class->store(4,"->get phrase=[$phrasebook{$key}]");
}
return $phrasebook{$key};
}
=head2 dicts
Having instantiated the C<Data::Phrasebook> object class, and using the C<file>
attribute as a directory path, the object can return a list of the current
dictionaries available as:
my $pb = Data::Phrasebook->new(
loader => 'Text',
file => '/tmp/phrasebooks',
);
my @dicts = $pb->dicts;
or
my @dicts = $pb->dicts( $path );
=cut
sub dicts {
my ($self,$path) = @_;
$path ||= $self->{parent}->file;
return () unless($path && -d $path && -r $path);
my @files = map { my $x = $_ ; $x =~ s/$path.//; $x } grep {/^[^\.]+.txt$/} glob("$path/*");
return @files;
}
=head2 keywords
Having instantiated the C<Data::Phrasebook> object class, using the C<file>
and C<dict> attributes as required, the object can return a list of the
current keywords available as:
my $pb = Data::Phrasebook->new(
loader => 'Text',
file => '/tmp/phrasebooks',
dict => 'TEST',
);
my @keywords = $pb->keywords;
or
my @keywords = $pb->keywords( $path, $dict );
Note that $path can either be the directory path, where $dict must be the
specific file name of the dictionary, or the full path of the dictionary file.
In the second instance, the function will not load a dictionary, but can be
used to interrogate the contents of a known dictionary.
=cut
sub keywords {
my @keywords;
if(@_ == 1) {
@keywords = sort keys %phrasebook;
return @keywords;
}
my ($self,$file,$dict) = @_;
$file ||= $self->{parent}->file;
$dict ||= $self->{parent}->dict;
croak "No file given as argument!" unless defined $file;
$file = "$file/$dict" if(-d $file && defined $dict);
croak "File [$file] not accessible!" unless -f $file && -r $file;
my $book = IO::File->new($file) or return;
while(<$book>) {
push @keywords, $1 if(/(.*?)=/ && $1);
}
$book->close;
my %keywords = map { $_ => 1 } @keywords;
@keywords = sort keys %keywords;
return @keywords;
}
1;
