The references can also be objects. The contents of each -variable is output in a single Perl statement. Handles self-referential -structures correctly. - -The return value can be C<eval>ed to get back an identical copy of the -original reference structure. - -Any references that are the same as one of those passed in will be named -C<$VAR>I<n> (where I<n> is a numeric suffix), and other duplicate references -to substructures within C<$VAR>I<n> will be appropriately labeled using arrow -notation. You can specify names for individual values to be dumped if you -use the C<Dump()> method, or you can change the default C<$VAR> prefix to -something else. See C<$Data::Dumper::Varname> and C<$Data::Dumper::Terse> -below. - -The default output of self-referential structures can be C<eval>ed, but the -nested references to C<$VAR>I<n> will be undefined, since a recursive -structure cannot be constructed using one Perl statement. You should set the -C<Purity> flag to 1 to get additional statements that will correctly fill in -these references. Moreover, if C<eval>ed when strictures are in effect, -you need to ensure that any variables it accesses are previously declared. - -In the extended usage form, the references to be dumped can be given -user-specified names. If a name begins with a C<*>, the output will -describe the dereferenced type of the supplied reference for hashes and -arrays, and coderefs. Output of names will be avoided where possible if -the C<Terse> flag is set. - -In many cases, methods that are used to set the internal state of the -object will return the object itself, so method calls can be conveniently -chained together. - -Several styles of output are possible, all controlled by setting -the C<Indent> flag. See L<Configuration Variables or Methods> below -for details. - - -=head2 Methods - -=over 4 - -=item I<PACKAGE>->new(I<ARRAYREF [>, I<ARRAYREF]>) - -Returns a newly created C<Data::Dumper> object. The first argument is an -anonymous array of values to be dumped. The optional second argument is an -anonymous array of names for the values. The names need not have a leading -C<$> sign, and must be comprised of alphanumeric characters. You can begin -a name with a C<*> to specify that the dereferenced type must be dumped -instead of the reference itself, for ARRAY and HASH references. - -The prefix specified by C<$Data::Dumper::Varname> will be used with a -numeric suffix if the name for a value is undefined. - -Data::Dumper will catalog all references encountered while dumping the -values. Cross-references (in the form of names of substructures in perl -syntax) will be inserted at all possible points, preserving any structural -interdependencies in the original set of values. Structure traversal is -depth-first, and proceeds in order from the first supplied value to -the last. - -=item I<$OBJ>->Dump I<or> I<PACKAGE>->Dump(I<ARRAYREF [>, I<ARRAYREF]>) - -Returns the stringified form of the values stored in the object (preserving -the order in which they were supplied to C<new>), subject to the -configuration options below. In a list context, it returns a list -of strings corresponding to the supplied values. - -The second form, for convenience, simply calls the C<new> method on its -arguments before dumping the object immediately. - -=item I<$OBJ>->Seen(I<[HASHREF]>) - -Queries or adds to the internal table of already encountered references. -You must use C<Reset> to explicitly clear the table if needed. Such -references are not dumped; instead, their names are inserted wherever they -are encountered subsequently. This is useful especially for properly -dumping subroutine references. - -Expects an anonymous hash of name => value pairs. Same rules apply for names -as in C<new>. If no argument is supplied, will return the "seen" list of -name => value pairs, in a list context. Otherwise, returns the object -itself. - -=item I<$OBJ>->Values(I<[ARRAYREF]>) - -Queries or replaces the internal array of values that will be dumped. -When called without arguments, returns the values. Otherwise, returns the -object itself. - -=item I<$OBJ>->Names(I<[ARRAYREF]>) - -Queries or replaces the internal array of user supplied names for the values -that will be dumped. When called without arguments, returns the names. -Otherwise, returns the object itself. - -=item I<$OBJ>->Reset - -Clears the internal table of "seen" references and returns the object -itself. - -=back - -=head2 Functions - -=over 4 - -=item Dumper(I<LIST>) - -Returns the stringified form of the values in the list, subject to the -configuration options below. The values will be named C<$VAR>I<n> in the -output, where I<n> is a numeric suffix. Will return a list of strings -in a list context. - -=back - -=head2 Configuration Variables or Methods - -Several configuration variables can be used to control the kind of output -generated when using the procedural interface. These variables are usually -C<local>ized in a block so that other parts of the code are not affected by -the change. - -These variables determine the default state of the object created by calling -the C<new> method, but cannot be used to alter the state of the object -thereafter. The equivalent method names should be used instead to query -or set the internal state of the object. - -The method forms return the object itself when called with arguments, -so that they can be chained together nicely. - -=over 4 - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Indent I<or> I<$OBJ>->Indent(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Controls the style of indentation. It can be set to 0, 1, 2 or 3. Style 0 -spews output without any newlines, indentation, or spaces between list -items. It is the most compact format possible that can still be called -valid perl. Style 1 outputs a readable form with newlines but no fancy -indentation (each level in the structure is simply indented by a fixed -amount of whitespace). Style 2 (the default) outputs a very readable form -which takes into account the length of hash keys (so the hash value lines -up). Style 3 is like style 2, but also annotates the elements of arrays -with their index (but the comment is on its own line, so array output -consumes twice the number of lines). Style 2 is the default. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Purity I<or> I<$OBJ>->Purity(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Controls the degree to which the output can be C<eval>ed to recreate the -supplied reference structures. Setting it to 1 will output additional perl -statements that will correctly recreate nested references. The default is -0. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Pad I<or> I<$OBJ>->Pad(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Specifies the string that will be prefixed to every line of the output. -Empty string by default. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Varname I<or> I<$OBJ>->Varname(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Contains the prefix to use for tagging variable names in the output. The -default is "VAR". - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Useqq I<or> I<$OBJ>->Useqq(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -When set, enables the use of double quotes for representing string values. -Whitespace other than space will be represented as C<[\n\t\r]>, "unsafe" -characters will be backslashed, and unprintable characters will be output as -quoted octal integers. Since setting this variable imposes a performance -penalty, the default is 0. C<Dump()> will run slower if this flag is set, -since the fast XSUB implementation doesn't support it yet. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Terse I<or> I<$OBJ>->Terse(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -When set, Data::Dumper will emit single, non-self-referential values as -atoms/terms rather than statements. This means that the C<$VAR>I<n> names -will be avoided where possible, but be advised that such output may not -always be parseable by C<eval>. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Freezer I<or> $I<OBJ>->Freezer(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a method name, or to an empty string to disable the feature. -Data::Dumper will invoke that method via the object before attempting to -stringify it. This method can alter the contents of the object (if, for -instance, it contains data allocated from C), and even rebless it in a -different package. The client is responsible for making sure the specified -method can be called via the object, and that the object ends up containing -only perl data types after the method has been called. Defaults to an empty -string. - -If an object does not support the method specified (determined using -UNIVERSAL::can()) then the call will be skipped. If the method dies a -warning will be generated. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Toaster I<or> $I<OBJ>->Toaster(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a method name, or to an empty string to disable the feature. -Data::Dumper will emit a method call for any objects that are to be dumped -using the syntax C<bless(DATA, CLASS)-E<gt>METHOD()>. Note that this means that -the method specified will have to perform any modifications required on the -object (like creating new state within it, and/or reblessing it in a -different package) and then return it. The client is responsible for making -sure the method can be called via the object, and that it returns a valid -object. Defaults to an empty string. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Deepcopy I<or> $I<OBJ>->Deepcopy(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a boolean value to enable deep copies of structures. -Cross-referencing will then only be done when absolutely essential -(i.e., to break reference cycles). Default is 0. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Quotekeys I<or> $I<OBJ>->Quotekeys(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a boolean value to control whether hash keys are quoted. -A false value will avoid quoting hash keys when it looks like a simple -string. Default is 1, which will always enclose hash keys in quotes. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Bless I<or> $I<OBJ>->Bless(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a string that specifies an alternative to the C<bless> -builtin operator used to create objects. A function with the specified -name should exist, and should accept the same arguments as the builtin. -Default is C<bless>. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Pair I<or> $I<OBJ>->Pair(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a string that specifies the separator between hash keys -and values. To dump nested hash, array and scalar values to JavaScript, -use: C<$Data::Dumper::Pair = ' : ';>. Implementing C<bless> in JavaScript -is left as an exercise for the reader. -A function with the specified name exists, and accepts the same arguments -as the builtin. - -Default is: C< =E<gt> >. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Maxdepth I<or> $I<OBJ>->Maxdepth(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a positive integer that specifies the depth beyond which -which we don't venture into a structure. Has no effect when -C<Data::Dumper::Purity> is set. (Useful in debugger when we often don't -want to see more than enough). Default is 0, which means there is -no maximum depth. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Useperl I<or> $I<OBJ>->Useperl(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a boolean value which controls whether the pure Perl -implementation of C<Data::Dumper> is used. The C<Data::Dumper> module is -a dual implementation, with almost all functionality written in both -pure Perl and also in XS ('C'). Since the XS version is much faster, it -will always be used if possible. This option lets you override the -default behavior, usually for testing purposes only. Default is 0, which -means the XS implementation will be used if possible. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Sortkeys I<or> $I<OBJ>->Sortkeys(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a boolean value to control whether hash keys are dumped in -sorted order. A true value will cause the keys of all hashes to be -dumped in Perl's default sort order. Can also be set to a subroutine -reference which will be called for each hash that is dumped. In this -case C<Data::Dumper> will call the subroutine once for each hash, -passing it the reference of the hash. The purpose of the subroutine is -to return a reference to an array of the keys that will be dumped, in -the order that they should be dumped. Using this feature, you can -control both the order of the keys, and which keys are actually used. In -other words, this subroutine acts as a filter by which you can exclude -certain keys from being dumped. Default is 0, which means that hash keys -are not sorted. - -=item * - -$Data::Dumper::Deparse I<or> $I<OBJ>->Deparse(I<[NEWVAL]>) - -Can be set to a boolean value to control whether code references are -turned into perl source code. If set to a true value, C<B::Deparse> -will be used to get the source of the code reference. Using this option -will force using the Perl implementation of the dumper, since the fast -XSUB implementation doesn't support it. - -Caution : use this option only if you know that your coderefs will be -properly reconstructed by C<B::Deparse>. - -=back - -=head2 Exports - -=over 4 - -=item Dumper - -=back - -=head1 EXAMPLES - -Run these code snippets to get a quick feel for the behavior of this -module.

Prepend it with a C<\> to pass its reference instead. This -will be remedied in time, now that Perl has subroutine prototypes. -For now, you need to use the extended usage form, and prepend the -name with a C<*> to output it as a hash or array. - -C<Data::Dumper> cheats with CODE references. If a code reference is -encountered in the structure being processed (and if you haven't set -the C<Deparse> flag), an anonymous subroutine that -contains the string '"DUMMY"' will be inserted in its place, and a warning -will be printed if C<Purity> is set. You can C<eval> the result, but bear -in mind that the anonymous sub that gets created is just a placeholder. -Someday, perl will have a switch to cache-on-demand the string -representation of a compiled piece of code, I hope. If you have prior -knowledge of all the code refs that your data structures are likely -to have, you can use the C<Seen> method to pre-seed the internal reference -table and make the dumped output point to them, instead. See L</EXAMPLES> -above. - -The C<Useqq> and C<Deparse> flags makes Dump() run slower, since the -XSUB implementation does not support them. - -SCALAR objects have the weirdest looking C<bless> workaround. - -Pure Perl version of C<Data::Dumper> escapes UTF-8 strings correctly -only in Perl 5.8.0 and later. - -=head2 NOTE - -Starting from Perl 5.8.1 different runs of Perl will have different -ordering of hash keys. The change was done for greater security, -see L<perlsec/"Algorithmic Complexity Attacks">. This means that -different runs of Perl will have different Data::Dumper outputs if -the data contains hashes. If you need to have identical Data::Dumper -outputs from different runs of Perl, use the environment variable -PERL_HASH_SEED, see L<perlrun/PERL_HASH_SEED>. Using this restores -the old (platform-specific) ordering: an even prettier solution might -be to use the C<Sortkeys> filter of Data::Dumper. - -=head1 AUTHOR - -Gurusamy Sarathy gsar@activestate.com - -Copyright (c) 1996-98 Gurusamy Sarathy.
