PPIx::EditorTools::RenameVariable - Lexically replace a variable name in Perl code
version 0.11
my $munged = PPIx::EditorTools::RenameVariable->new->rename( code => $code, line => 15, column => 13, replacement => 'stuff', ); my $code_as_strig = $munged->code; my $code_as_ppi = $munged->ppi; my $location = $munged->element->location;
This module will lexically replace a variable name.
Constructor. Generally shouldn't be called with any arguments.
Accepts either a PPI::Document to process or a string containing the code (which will be converted into a PPI::Document) to process. Renames the variable found at line, column with that supplied in the replacement parameter and returns a PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject with the new code available via the ppi or code accessors, as a PPI::Document or string, respectively. The PPI::Token found at line, column is available via the element accessor.
PPI::Document
replacement
PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject
ppi
code
string
PPI::Token
element
Instead of specifying an explicit replacement variable name, you may choose to use the to_camel_case or from_camel_case options that automatically convert to/from camelCase. In that mode, the ucfirst option will force uppercasing of the first letter.
to_camel_case
from_camel_case
ucfirst
You can not specify a replacement name and use the to/from_camel_case options.
to/from_camel_case
Croaks with a "no token" exception if no token is found at the location. Croaks with a "no declaration" exception if unable to find the declaration.
This class inherits from PPIx::EditorTools. Also see App::EditorTools, Padre, and PPI.
