NAME
Mojo::Autobox - Some extra Mojo for Perl native datatypes
SYNOPSIS
use Mojo::Base -strict;
use Mojo::Autobox;
# "site.com\n"
'{"html": "<a href=\"http://site.com\"></a>"}'
->json('/html')
->dom->at('a')->{href}
->url->host
->byte_stream->say;
DESCRIPTION
Using autobox, methods are provided to Perl native datatypes. This ability is then used to provide methods useful with classes from the Mojolicious toolkit. These are especially useful to contruct objects to continue a "chain" of method invocations.
The effect is lexical, and therefore is contained within the scope that the module is imported into.
CLASSES
When the pragma is in effect, the types are effectively blessed into the following classes:
- STRING - Mojo::Autobox::String
- ARRAY - Mojo::Autobox::Array
- HASH - Mojo::Autobox::Hash
ONE-LINERS
Additionally, for one-liner fun, the class ojoBox may be used to load Mojo::Autobox and ojo.
perl -MojoBox -E 'g("http://mojolicio.us")->dom->find("a")->each(sub{$_->{href}->url->host->b->say})'
