NAME

RoleBundle::TinyCommons::Tree - Roles related to object tree

VERSION

This document describes version 0.129 of RoleBundle::TinyCommons::Tree (from Perl distribution RoleBundle-TinyCommons-Tree), released on 2021-10-07.

DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides several roles you can use to create a tree class. The roles are designed for maximum reusability and minimum clashes with your existing class.

To create a tree class, all you need to do is apply the Role::TinyCommons::Tree::Node role:

use Role::Tiny::With;
with 'Role::TinyCommons::Tree::Node';

The Tree::Node common role just requires you to have two methods: parent (which should return parent node object) and children (which should return a list or arrayref of children node objects).

Utility methods such as descendants, walk, is_first_child and so on are separated to Role::TinyCommons::Tree::NodeMethods which you can apply if you want.

The actual methods in Role::TinyCommons::Tree::NodeMethods are actually implemented in Code::Includable::Tree::NodeMethods, so you can import them to your class manually or just call the routines as a normal function call if you do not want to involve Role::Tiny. See an example of this usage in Data::CSel.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
