Any::Renderer::JavaScript - render as a JavaScript object
use Any::Renderer; my %options = ( 'VariableName' => 'myvariable' ); my $format = "JavaScript"; my $r = new Any::Renderer ( $format, \%options ); my $data_structure = [...]; # arbitrary structure code my $string = $r->render ( $data_structure );
You can get a list of all formats that this module handles using the following syntax:
my $list_ref = Any::Renderer::JavaScript::available_formats ();
Also, determine whether or not a format requires a template with requires_template:
my $bool = Any::Renderer::JavaScript::requires_template ( $format );
Any::Renderer::JavaScript renders any Perl data structure passed to it as a sequence of JavaScript statements to create the corresponding data structure in JavaScript. For example:
perl -MAny::Renderer -e "print Any::Renderer->new('JavaScript')->render({a => 1, b => [2,3]})"
results in:
var script_output = new Object;script_output['a'] = 1;script_output['b'] = new Array;script_output['b'][0] = 2;script_output['b'][1] = 3;
See "FORMATS" for a description of valid values for $format. See "OPTIONS" for a description of valid %options.

%options

False in this case.
See "FORMATS" for a list.
