NAME Data::Section::Simple - Read data from __DATA__ SYNOPSIS use Data::Section::Simple qw(get_data_section); # Functional interface -- reads from caller package __DATA__ my $all = get_data_section; # All data in hash reference my $foo = get_data_section('foo.html'); # OO - allows reading from other packages my $reader = Data::Section::Simple->new($package); my $all = $reader->get_data_section; __DATA__ @@ foo.html Hello @@ bar.tt [% IF true %] Foo [% END %] DESCRIPTION Data::Section::Simple is a simple module to extract data drom "__DATA__" section of the file. LIMITATIONS As the name suggests, it's a very simple version of what Data::Section does. If you want more functionalities such as merging data sections or changing header patterns, use Data::Section instead. This module does not implement caching (yet) which means in every "get_data_section" or "get_data_section($name)" seeks and reads the data section every time it's called. If you want to avoid doing so, you should implement caching in your own caller code.
