NAME

Template::Reverse - A template generator getting different parts between pair of text

VERSION

version 0.130

SYNOPSIS

use Template::Reverse;
my $rev = Template::Reverse->new();

my $parts = $rev->detect($arr_ref1, $arr_ref2); # returns [ Template::Reverser::Part, ... ]

use Template::Reverse::Converter::TT2;
my @templates = Template::Reverse::TT2Converter::Convert($parts);

# try this!!
use Template::Reverse;
use Template::Reverse::Converter::TT2;
use Data::Dumper;

my $rev = Template::Reverse->new;

# generating patterns automatically!!
my $str1 = ['I',' ','am',' ', 'perl',' ','and',' ','smart']; # White spaces should be explained explicity.
my $str2 = ['I',' ','am',' ', 'khs' ,' ', and',' ','a',' ','perlmania']; # Use Parse::Lex or Parse::Token::Lite to make it easy.
my $parts = $rev->detect($str1, $str2);

my $tt2 = Template::Reverse::Converter::TT2->new;
my $temps = $tt2->Convert($parts); # equals ['I am [% value %] and','and [% value %]']


my $str3 = "I am king of the world and a richest man";

# extract!!
use Template::Extract;
my $ext = Template::Extract->new;
my $value = $ext->extract($temps->[0], $str3);
print Dumper($value); # output : {'value'=>'king of the world'}

my $value = $ext->extract($temps->[1], $str3);
print Dumper($value); # output : {'value'=>'a richest man'}

DESCRIPTION

Template::Reverse detects different parts between pair of similar text as merged texts from same template. And it can makes an output marked differences, encodes to TT2 format for being use by Template::Extract module.

FUNCTIONS

new(OPTION_HASH_REF)

sidelen=>$max_length_of_each_side

sidelen is a short of "side character's each max length". the default value is 10. Setting 0 means full-length.

If you set it as 3, you get max 3 length pre-text and post-text array each part.

This is needed for more faster performance.

WILDCARD()

WILDCARD() returns a blessed array reference as 'WILDCARD' to means WILDCARD token. This is used by _diff() and _detect().

detect($arr_ref1, $arr_ref2)

Get an array-ref of Template::Reverse::Part from two array-refs which contains text or object implements as_string() method. A Template::Reverse::Part class means an one changable token.

It returns like below.

$rev->detect([qw(A b C)], [qw(A d C)]);
# 
# [ { ['A'],['C'] } ] <- Please focus at data, not expression.
#   : :...: :...: :     
#   :  pre  post  :
#   :.............:  
#       Part #1
#

$rev->detect([qw(A b C d E)],[qw(A f C g E)]);
#
# [ { ['A'], ['C'] }, { ['C'], ['E'] } ]
#   : :...:  :...: :  : :...:  :...: :
#   :  pre   post  :  :  pre   post  :
#   :..............:  :..............:
#        Part #1          Part #2
#

$rev->detect([qw(A1 A2 B C1 C2 D E1 E2)],[qw(A1 A2 D C1 C2 F E1 E2)]);
#
# [ { ['A1','A2'],['C2','C2'] }, { ['C1','C2'], ['E2','E2'] } ]
#

my $str1 = [qw"I am perl and smart"];
my $str2 = [qw"I am KHS and a perlmania"];
my $parts = $rev->detect($str1, $str2);
#
# [ { ['I','am'], ['and'] } , { ['and'],[] } ]
#   : :........:  :.....: :   :            :
#   :    pre       post   :   :            :
#   :.....................:   :............:
#           Part #1               Part #2
#

# You can get same result for object arrays.
my $objs1 = [$obj1, $obj2, $obj3];
my $objs2 = [$obj1, $obj3];
#
# [ { [ $obj1 ], [ $obj3 ] } ]
#   : :.......:  :.......: :
#   :    pre       post    :
#   :......................:
#           Part #1

Returned arrayRef is list of changable parts.

You can get a changed token if you find just 'pre' and 'post' sequences on any other token array.
