Version 1.02

=head1 SYNOPSIS
Quick summary of what the module does.
use JSON::Conditional;
my $c = JSON::Conditional->new();
my $json = '{
"for": {
"key": "countries",
"each": "countries",
"if": {
"m": "Thailand",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 1
}
},
"elsif": {
"m": "Indonesia",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 2
}
},
"else": {
"then": {
"rank": null
}
},
"country": "{country}"
}
}';
$json = $c->compile($json, {
countries => [
{ country => "Thailand" },
{ country => "Indonesia" },
{ country => "Japan" },
{ country => "Cambodia" },
]
});
...
{
"countries": [
{
"rank": 1,
"country": "Thailand"
},
{
"rank": 2,
"country": "Indonesia"
},
{
"rank": null,
"country": "Japan"
},
{
"rank": null,
"country": "Cambodia"
}
]
};
=head1 METHODS
=head2 new
Instantiate a new JSON::Conditional object. Currently this expects no arguments.
my $c = JSON::Conditional->new;
=head2 encode
Encode a perl struct into JSON.
$c->encode($struct);
=head2 encode_file
Encode a perl struct into JSON file.
$c->encode_file($struct, $out_file);
=head2 decode
Decode a JSON string into a perl struct.
$c->decode($json);
=head2 decode_file
Decode a JSON file into a perl struct.
$c->decode_file($json_file);
=head2 compile
Compile a json string or file containing valid JSON::Conditional markup into either a json string, json file or perl struct based upon the passed params.
$c->compile($json, $params); # json string
$c->compile($json, $params, 1); # perl struct
$c->compile($json, $params, 0, $out_file); # json file
=head1 Markup or Markdown
=head2 keywords
=head3 if, elsif, else
If, elsif and else conditionals are logical blocks used within JSON::Conditional. They are comprised of a minimum of four parts, the keyword, the expression, 'key' and 'then'. The expression can be any that are defined in the expression section of this document. The 'key' is the value in the params that will be evaluated and the 'then' is the response that is returned if the expression is true.
my $json = '{
"if": {
"m": "Thailand",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 1
}
},
"elsif": {
"m": "Indonesia",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 2
}
},
"else": {
"then": {
"rank": null
}
},
"country": "{country}"
}';
$json = $c->compile($json, {
country => "Thailand"
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Thailand',
rank => 1
}
You can also write this like the following:
my $json = '{
"if": {
"m": "Thailand",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 1
},
"elsif": {
"m": "Indonesia",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 2
},
"else": {
"then": {
"rank": null
}
}
}
},
"country": "{country}"
}';
$json = $c->compile($json, {
country => "Indonesia"
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Indonesia',
rank => 2
}
=head3 given
Given conditionals are logical blocks used within JSON::Conditional. They are comprised of a minimum of three parts, the keyword, 'when' and'key'. The 'when' can either be an array or a hash of expression that are defined in the expression section of this document. The 'key' is the value in the params that will be evaluated. You can optionally provide a default which will be used when no 'when' expressions are matched.
my $json = '{
"given": {
"key": "country",
"default": {
"rank": null
},
"when": [
{
"m": "Thailand",
"then": {
"rank": 1
}
},
{
"m": "Indonesia",
"then": {
"rank": 2
}
}
]
},
"country": "{country}"
}';
my $compiled = $c->compile($json, {
country => 'Thailand'
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Thailand'
rank => 1
}
You can also write this like the following:
my $json = '{
"given": {
"key": "country",
"when": {
"Thailand": {
"rank": 1
},
"Indonesia": {
"rank": 2
},
"default": {
"rank": null
}
}
},
"country": "{country}"
}';
my $compiled = $c->compile($json, {
country => 'Indonesia'
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Indonesia'
rank => 1
}
=head3 or
The 'or' keyword allows you to chain expression checks, where only one expression has to match.
my $json = '{
"if": {
"m": "Thailand",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 1,
"country": "{country}"
},
"or": {
"key": "country",
"m": "Maldives",
"or": {
"key": "country",
"m": "Greece"
}
}
},
}';
my $compiled = $c->compile($json, {
country => 'Greece'
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Greece'
rank => 1
}
=head3 and
The 'and' keyword allows you to chain expression checks, where only all expression has to match.
my $json = '{
"if": {
"m": "Thailand",
"key": "country",
"then": {
"rank": 1,
"country": "{country}"
},
"and": {
"key": "season",
"m": "Summer"
}
}
}';
my $compiled = $c->compile($json, {
country => 'Thailand',
season => 'Summer'
}, 1);
...
{
country => 'Thailand'
rank => 1
}
=head2 expressions

{
"key": $param_key,
"m": $regex,
"then": \%then
}
=head3 im
Does the params key value match the provided regex value case insensative.
{
"key": $param_key,
"im": $regex,
"then": \%then
}
=head3 nm
Does the params key value not match the provided regex value.
{
"key": $param_key,
"nm": $regex,

"key": $param_key,
"inm": $regex,
"then": \%then
}
=head3 eq
Does the params key value equal the provided value.
{
"key": $param_key,
"eq": $equals,
"then": \%then
}
=head3 ne
Does the params key value not equal the provided value.
{
"key": $param_key,
"ne": $equals,
"then": \%then

{
"key": $param_key,
"gt": $greater_than,
"then": \%then

{
"key": $param_key,
"lt": $greater_than,
"then": \%then
}
=head2 placeholders
All parameters that are passed into compile can be used as placeholders within the json. You can define a placeholder by enclosing a key in braces.
{
"placeholder": "{param_key}"
}
=head2 loops
=head3 for
=head4 each
Expects key to reference a array in the passed params. It will then itterate each item in the array and build an array based upon which conditions/expressions are met.
my $json = '{
"for": {
"key": "countries",
"each": "countries",
"country": "{country}"
}
}';
$json = $c->compile($json, {
countries => [
{ country => "Thailand" },
{ country => "Indonesia" },
{ country => "Japan" },
{ country => "Cambodia" },
]
}, 1);
...
{
countries => [
{
country => "Thailand"
},
{
country => "Indonesia"
},
{
country => "Japan",
},
{
country => "Cambodia"
}
]
};
=head4 keys
Expects key to reference a hash in the passed params. It will then itterate keys in the hash and build an hash based upon which conditions/expressions are met.
my $json = '{
"for": {
"key": "countries",
"keys": 1,
"country": "{country}"
},
}';
$json = $c->compile($json, {
countries => {
1 => { country => "Thailand" },
2 => { country => "Indonesia" },
3 => { country => "Japan" },
4 => { country => "Cambodia" },
}
}, 1);
...
{
1 => { country => "Thailand" },
2 => { country => "Indonesia" },
3 => { country => "Japan" },
4 => { country => "Cambodia" },
}
