= Processr
== Overview
Processr is a simple text processing and concatenation library. It takes a number of input strings (or files) and outputs a single string (or file) containing the result. Text can be passed through filters to modify the output.
== Installation
The project is hosted on rubygems.org. Getting it is simple:
gem install processr
== Usage
=== Configuration
Use the configuration block to setup Processr
Processr.configure do |config| config.root = File.expand_path(File.dirname(FILE)) config.out = File.join(config.root, 'output.txt') end
If an output file is specified the result will be written to that file, otherwise the result will be returned directly from the #process! method.
=== Basic
processor = Processr.new processor << "Some\n" processor << "Text" processor.process! # => "Some\nText"
This will result in a concatenated string being returned.
=== Basic (from file)
processor = Processr.new processor.files << 'input_one.txt' processor.files << 'input_two.txt' processor.process! # => contents of input_one.txt and input_two.txt
This will result in the contents of input_one.txt and input_two.txt returned.
=== Filters
Filters can be used to modify the output of a processing session. A filter is any object that responds to #call. Filters take a single argument (the input buffer) and must return the modified buffer for further processing. For example:
lambda do |buffer| # ...do something with buffer here...
buffer
end
Or
class MyFilter
def self.call(buffer)
# ...do something with buffer here...
buffer
end
end
You can register a filter by calling #add_filter on an instance of Processr. A further example would be a really simple textile parser:
TextileFilter = lambda do |buffer|
lookup = {
/_(.*)_/ => '<em>\1</em>',
/\*(.*)\*/ => '<strong>\1</strong>',
/\"(.*)\":(\S*)/ => '<a href="\2">\1</a>'
}
lookup.each_pair do |regex, replacement|
buffer.gsub!(regex, replacement)
end
buffer
end
processor = Processr.new processor.add_filter(TextileFilter) processor << 'A simple example of a "textile":http://www.textism.com/tools/textile/ parser using a filter.' processor.process! # => "A simple example of a textile parser using a filter."
Run the examples for more information.
