NAME

TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::Handle - Stream TAP from an IO::Handle or a GLOB.

VERSION

Version 3.42

SYNOPSIS

  use TAP::Parser::Source;
  use TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::Executable;

  my $source = TAP::Parser::Source->new->raw( \*TAP_FILE );
  $source->assemble_meta;

  my $class = 'TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::Handle';
  my $vote  = $class->can_handle( $source );
  my $iter  = $class->make_iterator( $source );

DESCRIPTION

This is a raw TAP stored in an IO Handle TAP::Parser::SourceHandler class. It has 2 jobs:

1. Figure out if the TAP::Parser::Source it's given is an IO::Handle or GLOB containing raw TAP output (``can_handle'').

2. Creates an iterator for IO::Handle's & globs (``make_iterator'').

Unless you're writing a plugin or subclassing TAP::Parser, you probably won't need to use this module directly.

METHODS

Class Methods

"can_handle"

  my $vote = $class->can_handle( $source );

Casts the following votes:

  0.9 if $source is an IO::Handle
  0.8 if $source is a glob

"make_iterator"

  my $iterator = $class->make_iterator( $source );

Returns a new TAP::Parser::Iterator::Stream for the source.

"iterator_class"

The class of iterator to use, override if you're sub-classing. Defaults to TAP::Parser::Iterator::Stream.
