NAME

PPIx::IndexLines - Given a line number, returns some basic information about where in the perl document you are

VERSION

version 0.05

SYNOPSIS

  #!/usr/bin/perl
  use strict;
  use warnings;
  use PPIx::IndexLines;
  my $document = PPIx::IndexLines->new( +shift );
  $document->index_lines;
  print $document->line_type( +shift );

METHODS

new

Accepts either a scalar or a scalar reference. This is passed directly to PPI::Document::new, so the same rules as in that method apply.

Basically, if you pass in a scalar, it will be assumed to be a filename and said file will be loaded and parsed.

Otherwise, a scalar reference is assumed to be a PPI document and will be parsed directly.

index_lines

Call this method to index the lines for the new PPI::Document.

line_type

Call this method with a line number, it will return one of

  BEGIN CHECK UNITCHECK INIT END POD __DATA__ __END__

or

  <PackageName>::<SubName>
