Data::Phrasebook::Plain(3) The Simple Phrasebook Model.

SYNOPSIS


use Data::Phrasebook;
my $q = Data::Phrasebook->new(
class => 'Plain',
loader => 'Text',
file => 'phrases.txt',
);
my $r = Data::Phrasebook->new( file => 'phrases.txt' );
# simple keyword to phrase mapping
my $phrase = $q->fetch($keyword);
# keyword to phrase mapping with parameters
$q->delimiters( qr{ \[% \s* (\w+) \s* %\] }x );
my $phrase = $q->fetch($keyword,{this => 'that'});

DESCRIPTION

This module is the fallback or default phrasebook class. It doesn't do much except act as a very simple templating facility.

METHODS

fetch

Retrieves the specified "template" and substitutes any "keywords" for "values".

Thus, given: 

    hello=Hello [% where %]!

And code: 

    my $text = $q->fetch( 'hello', {
        where => 'world'
    } );

Return value is: 

    Hello world!

The delimiters are deliberately taken from Template Toolkit.

SUPPORT

Please see the README file.
