NAME

Data::Stream::Bulk::Util - Utility functions for the Data::Stream::Bulk manpage

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 the Data::Stream::Bulk manpage.

EXPORTS

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

nil

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

Takes no arguments.

bulk @items

Creates a new the Data::Stream::Bulk::Array manpage 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 the Hash::Util::FieldHash manpage).
