NAME
Perl::Metrics::Simple - Count packages, subs, lines, etc. of many files.
SYNOPSIS
use Perl::Metrics::Simple;
my $analzyer = Perl::Metrics::Simple->new;
my $analysis = $analzyer->analyze_files(@ARGV);
$file_count = $analysis->file_count;
$package_count = $analysis->package_count;
$sub_count = $analysis->sub_count;
$lines = $analysis->lines;
$main_stats = $analysis->main_stats;
$file_stats = $analysis->file_stats;
VERSION
This is VERSION 0.02.
DESCRIPTION
Perl::Metrics::Simple is far simpler that Perl::Metrics.
Perl::Metrics::Simple provides just enough methods to run static analysis of one or many Perl files and obtain a few metrics: packages, subroutines, lines of code, and cyclomatic (mccabe) complexity of the subroutines and the "main" portion of the code.
Installs a a script called countperl.
USAGE
TODO: Fill in.
CLASS METHODS
new
Blah blah
is_perl_file
Takes a path and returns true if the target is a Perl file.
OBJECT METHODS
analyze_files( @files_and_or_dirs )
Takes an array of files and or directory paths and returns a Perl::Metrics::Simple::Analysis object.
analyze_one_file
find_files
get_node_length
list_perl_files
measure_complexity($PPI_node)
Attempts to measure the cyclomatic complexity of a chunk of code.
Takes a PPI::Node and returns the total number of logic keywords and logic operators. plus 1. See the PACKAGE PROPERTIES
section for a list.

The code for this method was copied from Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitExcessComplexity
is_perl_file($path)
Takes a path to a file and returns true if the file appears to be a Perl file, otherwise returns false.
If the file name does not match any of @Perl::Metrics::Simple::PERL_FILE_SUFFIXES then the file is opened for reading and the first line examined for a a Perl 'shebang' line. An exception is thrown if the file cannot be opened in this case.
