Requisite Plug-in Functions
See CAD::Drawing::IO for a description of the plug-in architecture.
The command-line type specification for this module is 'ysplit'.
check_type
Returns true if $type is "ysplit" or $filename is a directory (need a tag?)
$fact = check_type($filename, $type);
Load/Save Methods
Concept here is to strip data down to the absolute bare minumum in an effort to find a generic and extensible incarnation of same.
save
Saves data into $toplevel_directory into a file for each id.
save($drw, $toplevel_directory, \%options);
Requires that the directory exists and is empty (?)
Selective saves not yet supported.
Needs a clear_all_like => $regex option.
load
load($drw, $toplevel_directory, \%options);
%options may include selective-load arguments
Naming Functions
_dir_list
@list = _dir_list($dir);
keymap_in
Remaps keys (and possibly data) into the input version.
($key, $value) = keymap_in($key, $value);
keymap_out
Remaps keys (and possibly data) into the output version.
($key, $value) = keymap_out($key, $value);
Inherited Methods
clear_flatyml
Removes items from the flat directory $dir.
Defaults to removing all.
$drw->clear_flatyml($dir, \%options);
- Available options:
-
like => qr/regex/, # if regex matches layer name not_like => qr/regex/, # negative of above (compounded)
- check_select() options:
-
%options is passed through CAD::Drawing::Defined::check_select(), so the selections returned by it will be utilized here.
select_layers => \@layer_list, select_types => \@types_list,
Returns the number of items removed or undef() if $dir does not exist.
