NAME

Pod::Coverage::TrustMe - Pod::Coverage but more powerful

SYNOPSIS

use Pod::Coverage::TrustMe;

Pod::Coverage::TrustMe->new(package => 'My::Package')->print_report;

DESCRIPTION

Checks that all of the functions or methods provided by a package have documentation. Compatible with most uses of Pod::Coverage, but with additional features.

CONSTRUCTOR OPTIONS

These options can be passed to Pod::Coverage::TrustMe->new.

package

The package to check coverage for. The module must be loadable.

pod_from

The Pod file to parse. By default, the module that is loaded will be used, or a pod file existing in the same directory, if it exists.

private

An array ref of regular expressions for subs to consider private and not needing to be documented. If non-regular expressions are included in the list, they will be taken as literal sub names. Defaults to "DEFAULT_PRIVATE".

also_private

An array ref of items to add to the private list. Makes it easy to augment the default list.

trustme

An array ref of subs to consider documented even if no pod can be found. Has a similar effect to "private", but will include the subs in the list of covered subs, rather than excluding them from the list entirely.

nonwhitespace

Requires that the pod section for the sub have some non-whitespace characters in it to be counted as covering the sub.

trust_parents

Includes Pod from parent classes in list of covered subs. Like Pod::Coverage::CountParents. Defaults to true.

trust_roles

Includes Pod from consumed roles in list of covered subs. Like Pod::Coverage::CountParents, but checking does or DOES. Defaults to true.

trust_pod

Trusts subs or regexes listed in Pod::Coverage blocks in Pod. Like Pod::Coverage::TrustPod. Defaults to true.

A section like:

=for Pod::Coverage sub1 sub2 [A-Z_]+

will allow the subs sub1, sub2, and any sub that is all upper case to exist without being documented.

Requires a link in the Pod to parent classes or roles to include them in the coverage. If the documentation for subs is in different files, they should be linked to in some way.

export_only

Only requires subs listed in @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK to be covered.

trust_imported

Trusts subs that were imported from other packages. If set to false, every sub in the package needs to be covered, even if it is imported from another package. Subs that aren't part of the API should be cleaned using a tool like namespace::clean, or excluded in some way. See also Test::CleanNamespaces. Defaults to true.

METHODS

coverage

Returns the percentage of subs covered as a value between 0 and 1.

why_unrated
covered

Returns a list of subs that are covered by the documentation.

uncovered

Returns a list of subs that are not covered by the documentation.

naked

An alias for uncovered.

report

Returns a text report on the covered and uncovered subroutines.

Print a text report on the covered and uncovered subroutines.

symbols

Returns the a hashref of symbols detected, with a value of true or false for if the symbol is covered by pod.

trusted_packages

Returns the other packages that will have their pod checked for symbols to treat as covered.

METHODS FOR SUBCLASSES

There are some private methods provided that could be overridden in subclasses to adjust the behavior.

_get_syms($package)

Returns the list of symbols for a given package.

_get_pods($package)

Returns an array ref of all of the covered items in the pod.

_private_check($symbol)

Returns true if the given symbol should be considered private.

_trustme_check($symbol)

Returns true if the given symbol should be treated as covered even without any documentation found.

CONSTANTS

DEFAULT_PRIVATE

An array reference of the default list of private regular expressions.

TESTING

See Test::Pod::Coverage::TrustMe for using this module in tests.

Pod::Coverage::TrustMe vs Pod::Coverage

There are some important differences between this module and Pod::Coverage, aside from the additional features.

No _CvGV method

Pod::Coverage provides and documents the _CvGV method, but doesn't use it itself. This module does not provide the method.

No import method

Pod::Coverage provides an import method to allow you to run code like perl -MPod::Coverage=Some::Package -e1. This module does not provide this, instead encouraging the use of the pod-cover script.

Uses Pod::Simple

Pod::Coverage parses pod using Pod::Parser, which has been removed from perl core and its use is discouraged. This module uses Pod::Simple instead.
