NAME

new - Object instantiation sugar for one-liners

SYNOPSIS

Simplest possible usage:

perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny -E \
  'say $O->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}'

With arguments:

perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,max_redirects,3 -E \
  'say $O->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}'

With custom object name:

perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,\$H -E \
  'say $H->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}'

With both:

perl -Mnew=HTTP::Tiny,\$H,max_redirects,3 -E \
  'say $H->get("http://trout.me.uk/X11/vimrc")->{content}'

DESCRIPTION

import

new->import($class, @args)

First we require the file for $class, then call

$class->new(@args)

then install the resulting object in $O in the calling package.

Caveat: if $class loads successfully but does not have a new method, we install the $class instead since you might want to call class methods.

If the first argument to import after $class begins with $, this is treated as the name to install the object as, so

new->import($class, '$Obj', @args);

will create a variable $Obj in the calling package instead of $O.
