NAME

Template::Plugin::HashMergeVMethods - virtual methods for TT2 hashes to merge them

SYNOPSIS

  [% USE HashMerge %]
  [% USE HashMergeVMethods %]
  [% a = {
             foo => 1,
             bar => [ 'a', 'b', 'e' ],
             baz => {
                        bob => 'alice',
                    },
         };
     b = {
             foo => 2,
             bar => [ 'c', 'd' ],
             baz => {
                        ted => 'margeret',
                    },
         };
     HashMerge.set_behaviour( 'RIGHT_PRECEDENT' );
     c = a.merge( b ); %]

DESCRIPTION

Template::Toolkit plugin HashMergeVMethods provides the Hash::Merge functions merge and set_behaviour to be used within templates as virtual methods of hashes.

This can be useful in all cases a template works directly on data - e.g. when processing results from a query using Template::DBI and join the result with results from derived queries.

USAGE

  [% USE HashMerge %]
  [% USE HashMergeVMethods %]
  [% HashMerge.set_behaviour( <behaviour name> );
     result = hash1.merge( hash2 ); %]

Detailed function description and default behaviours are available in Hash::Merge.

If you prefer to use object methods, see Template::Plugin::HashMerge.
