This package integrates behaviors from:
METHODS
This package provides the following methods:
all
all(CodeRef $code) (Bool)
The all method returns true if the callback returns true for all of the elements.
Since 0.01
- all example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $all = $hash->all(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value > 1 }); # 1
any
any(CodeRef $code) (Bool)
The any method returns true if the callback returns true for any of the elements.
Since 0.01
- any example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $any = $hash->any(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value < 1 }); # 0
count
count() (Int)
The count method returns the total number of keys defined.
Since 0.01
default
default() (HashRef)
The default method returns the default value, i.e. {}
.
Since 0.01
delete
delete(Str $key) (Any)
The delete method returns the value matching the key specified in the argument and returns the value.
Since 0.01
each
each(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)
The each method executes callback for each element in the hash passing the routine the key and value at the current position in the loop. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
Since 0.01
- each example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $each = $hash->each(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; [$key, $value] }); # [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6], [7, 8]]
empty
empty() (HashRef)
The empty method drops all elements from the hash.
Since 0.01
exists
exists(Str $key) (Bool)
The exists method returns true if the value matching the key specified in the argument exists, otherwise returns false.
Since 0.01
find
find(Str @data) (Any)
The find method traverses the data structure using the keys and indices provided, returning the value found or undef. In list-context, this method returns a tuple, i.e. the value found and boolean representing whether the match was successful.
Since 0.01
- find example 1
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $find = $hash->find('foo', 'bar'); # "baz"
- find example 2
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $find = $hash->find('bar', 0); # "baz"
- find example 3
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $find = $hash->find('bar'); # ["baz"]
- find example 4
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my ($find, $exists) = $hash->find('baz'); # (undef, 0)
grep
grep(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)
The grep method executes callback for each key/value pair in the hash passing the routine the key and value at the current position in the loop and returning a new hash reference containing the elements for which the argument evaluated true. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
Since 0.01
- grep example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $grep = $hash->grep(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value >= 3 }); # [3..8]
iterator
iterator() (CodeRef)
The iterator method returns a code reference which can be used to iterate over the hash. Each time the iterator is executed it will return the values of the next element in the hash until all elements have been seen, at which point the iterator will return an undefined value. This method can return a tuple with the key and value in list-context.
Since 0.01
- iterator example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $iterator = $hash->iterator; # sub { ... } # while (my $value = $iterator->()) { # say $value; # 1 # }
- iterator example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $iterator = $hash->iterator; # sub { ... } # while (grep defined, my ($key, $value) = $iterator->()) { # say $value; # 1 # }
keys
keys() (ArrayRef)
The keys method returns an array reference consisting of all the keys in the hash.
Since 0.01
list
list() (Any)
The list method returns a shallow copy of the underlying hash reference as an array reference.
Since 0.01
map
map(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)
The map method executes callback for each key/value in the hash passing the routine the value at the current position in the loop and returning a new hash reference containing the elements for which the argument returns a value or non-empty list. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
Since 0.01
- map example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $map = $hash->map(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; [$key, ($value * 2)] }); # [[1, 4], [3, 8], [5, 12], [7, 16]]
merge
merge(HashRef @data) (HashRef)
The merge method returns a hash reference where the elements in the hash and the elements in the argument(s) are merged. This operation performs a deep merge and clones the datasets to ensure no side-effects. The merge behavior merges hash references only, all other data types are assigned with precendence given to the value being merged.
Since 0.01
- merge example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $merge = $hash->merge({1 => 'a'}); # { 1 => "a", 3 => 4, 5 => 6, 7 => 8 }
- merge example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $merge = $hash->merge({1 => 'a'}, {5 => 'b'}); # { 1 => "a", 3 => 4, 5 => "b", 7 => 8 }
none
none(CodeRef $code) (Bool)
The none method returns true if none of the elements in the array meet the criteria set by the operand and rvalue.
Since 0.01
- none example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $none = $hash->none(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value < 1 }); # 1
one
one(CodeRef $code) (Bool)
The one method returns true if only one of the elements in the array meet the criteria set by the operand and rvalue.
Since 0.01
- one example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $one = $hash->one(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value == 2 }); # 1
pairs
pairs() (ArrayRef)
The pairs method is an alias to the pairs_array method. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
Since 0.01
path
path(Str $expr) (Any)
The path method traverses the data structure using the path expr provided, returning the value found or undef. In list-context, this method returns a tuple, i.e. the value found and boolean representing whether the match was successful.
Since 0.01
- path example 1
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $path = $hash->path('/foo/bar'); # "baz"
- path example 2
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $path = $hash->path('/bar/0'); # "baz"
- path example 3
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my $path = $hash->path('/bar'); # ["baz"]
- path example 4
-
package main; use Venus::Hash; my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']}); my ($path, $exists) = $hash->path('/baz'); # (undef, 0)
random
random() (Any)
The random method returns a random element from the array.
Since 0.01
- random example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $random = $hash->random; # 6 # my $random = $hash->random; # 4
reset
reset() (ArrayRef)
The reset method returns nullifies the value of each element in the hash.
Since 0.01
- reset example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $reset = $hash->reset; # { 1 => undef, 3 => undef, 5 => undef, 7 => undef }
reverse
reverse() (HashRef)
The reverse method returns a hash reference consisting of the hash's keys and values inverted. Note, keys with undefined values will be dropped.
Since 0.01
- reverse example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $reverse = $hash->reverse; # { 2 => 1, 4 => 3, 6 => 5, 8 => 7 }
