NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern - simple policy for enforcing a package naming policy

AFFILIATION

This policy is a policy in the Perl::Critic::logicLAB distribution. The policy is themed: logiclab.

VERSION

This documentation describes version 0.05.

DESCRIPTION

The policy can be used to enforced naming conventions for packages.

SYNOPSIS

Policy configuration:

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = Acme

Your package:

    package This::Is::A::Test;

        # code goes here

    1;

Invocation of policy:

    $ perlcritic --single-policy logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern lib

Explanation:

    Use specified requirement for package naming for This::Is::A::Test

Description:

    Package name: This::Is::A::Test is not complying with required standard

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

This policy allow you to configure the contents of the shebang lines you want to allow using "names".

names

names, is the configuration parameter used to specify the patterns you want to enforce.

The different usage scenarios are documented below

Toplevel namespace

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = ^App::

Subclass

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = ::JONASBN$

Postfix

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = Utils$

Prefix

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = ^Acme

Contains

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = Tiny

Or

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    names = Acme || logicLAB

debug

Optionally and for development purposes I have added a debug flag. This can be set in your Perl::Critic configuration file as follows:

    [logicLAB::RequirePackageNamePattern]
    debug = 1

This enables more explicit output on what is going on during the actual processing of the policy.
