=head1 NAME

Pod::Simple::PullParser -- a pull-parser interface to parsing Pod

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 my $parser = SomePodProcessor->new;
 $parser->set_source( "whatever.pod" );
 $parser->run;

Or:

 my $parser = SomePodProcessor->new;
 $parser->set_source( $some_filehandle_object );
 $parser->run;

Or:

 my $parser = SomePodProcessor->new;
 $parser->set_source( \$document_source );
 $parser->run;

Or:

 my $parser = SomePodProcessor->new;
 $parser->set_source( \@document_lines );
 $parser->run;

And elsewhere:

 require 5;
 package SomePodProcessor;
 use strict;
 use base qw(Pod::Simple::PullParser);

 sub run {
   my $self = shift;
  Token:
   while(my $token = $self->get_token) {
     ...process each token...
   }
 }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is for using Pod::Simple to build a Pod processor -- but
one that uses an interface based on a stream of token objects,
instead of based on events.

This is a subclass of L<Pod::Simple> and inherits all its methods.

A subclass of Pod::Simple::PullParser should define a C<run> method
that calls C<< $token = $parser->get_token >> to pull tokens.

See the source for Pod::Simple::RTF for an example of a formatter
that uses Pod::Simple::PullParser.

=head1 METHODS

=over

=item my $token = $parser->get_token

This returns the next token object (which will be of a subclass of
L<Pod::Simple::PullParserToken>), or undef if the parser-stream has hit
the end of the document.

=item $parser->unget_token( $token )

=item $parser->unget_token( $token1, $token2, ... )

This restores the token object(s) to the front of the parser stream.

=back

The source has to be set before you can parse anything.  The lowest-level
way is to call C<set_source>:

=over

=item $parser->set_source( $filename )

=item $parser->set_source( $filehandle_object )

=item $parser->set_source( \$document_source )

=item $parser->set_source( \@document_lines )

=back

Or you can call these methods, which Pod::Simple::PullParser has defined
to work just like Pod::Simple's same-named methods:

=over

=item $parser->parse_file(...)

=item $parser->parse_string_document(...)

=item $parser->filter(...)

=item $parser->parse_from_file(...)

=back

For those to work, the Pod-processing subclass of
Pod::Simple::PullParser has to have defined a $parser->run method --
so it is advised that all Pod::Simple::PullParser subclasses do so.
See the Synopsis above, or the source for Pod::Simple::RTF.

Authors of formatter subclasses might find these methods useful to
call on a parser object that you haven't started pulling tokens
from yet:

=over

=item my $title_string = $parser->get_title

This tries to get the title string out of $parser, by getting some tokens,
and scanning them for the title, and then ungetting them so that you can
process the token-stream from the beginning.

For example, suppose you have a document that starts out:

  =head1 NAME

  Hoo::Boy::Wowza -- Stuff B<wow> yeah!

$parser->get_title on that document will return "Hoo::Boy::Wowza --
Stuff wow yeah!". If the document starts with:

  =head1 Name

  Hoo::Boy::W00t -- Stuff B<w00t> yeah!

Then you'll need to pass the C<nocase> option in order to recognize "Name":

  $parser->get_title(nocase => 1);

In cases where get_title can't find the title, it will return empty-string
("").

=item my $title_string = $parser->get_short_title

This is just like get_title, except that it returns just the modulename, if
the title seems to be of the form "SomeModuleName -- description".

For example, suppose you have a document that starts out:

  =head1 NAME

  Hoo::Boy::Wowza -- Stuff B<wow> yeah!

then $parser->get_short_title on that document will return
"Hoo::Boy::Wowza".

But if the document starts out:

  =head1 NAME

  Hooboy, stuff B<wow> yeah!

then $parser->get_short_title on that document will return "Hooboy,
stuff wow yeah!". If the document starts with:

  =head1 Name

  Hoo::Boy::W00t -- Stuff B<w00t> yeah!

Then you'll need to pass the C<nocase> option in order to recognize "Name":

  $parser->get_short_title(nocase => 1);

If the title can't be found, then get_short_title returns empty-string
("").

=item $author_name   = $parser->get_author

This works like get_title except that it returns the contents of the
"=head1 AUTHOR\n\nParagraph...\n" section, assuming that that section
isn't terribly long. To recognize a "=head1 Author\n\nParagraph\n"
section, pass the C<nocase> option:

  $parser->get_author(nocase => 1);

(This method tolerates "AUTHORS" instead of "AUTHOR" too.)

=item $description_name = $parser->get_description

This works like get_title except that it returns the contents of the
"=head1 DESCRIPTION\n\nParagraph...\n" section, assuming that that section
isn't terribly long. To recognize a "=head1 Description\n\nParagraph\n"
section, pass the C<nocase> option:

  $parser->get_description(nocase => 1);

=item $version_block = $parser->get_version

This works like get_title except that it returns the contents of
the "=head1 VERSION\n\n[BIG BLOCK]\n" block.  Note that this does NOT
return the module's C<$VERSION>!! To recognize a
"=head1 Version\n\n[BIG BLOCK]\n" section, pass the C<nocase> option:

  $parser->get_version(nocase => 1);

=head1 NOTE

You don't actually I<have> to define a C<run> method.  If you're
writing a Pod-formatter class, you should define a C<run> just so
that users can call C<parse_file> etc, but you don't I<have> to.

And if you're not writing a formatter class, but are instead just
writing a program that does something simple with a Pod::PullParser
object (and not an object of a subclass), then there's no reason to
bother subclassing to add a C<run> method.
