man Data::Stream::Bulk::Util (3): Utility functions for Data::Stream::Bulk

VERSION

version 0.11

SYNOPSIS

use Data::Stream::Bulk::Util qw(array);
use namespace::clean;
# Wrap a list in L<Data::Stream::Bulk::Array>
return bulk(qw(foo bar gorch baz));
# return an empty resultset
return nil();

DESCRIPTION

This module exports convenience functions for use with Data::Stream::Bulk.

EXPORTS

Sub::Exporter is used to create the "import" routine, and all of its aliasing/currying goodness is of course supported.

nil

Creates a new Data::Stream::Bulk::Nil object.

Takes no arguments.

bulk @items

Creates a new Data::Stream::Bulk::Array wrapping @items.

cat @streams

Concatenate several streams together.

Returns "nil" if no arguments are provided.

filter { ... } $stream

Calls "filter" on $stream with the provided filter.

unique $stream

Filter the stream to remove duplicates.

Note that memory use may potentially scale to O(k) where k is the number of distinct items, because this is implemented in terms of a seen hash.

In the future this will be optimized to be iterative for sorted streams.

References are keyed by their refaddr (see ``id'' in Hash::Util::FieldHash).
