Padre::Current - A context object, for centralising the concept of what is "current"

DESCRIPTION

Top

The Padre::Current detectes and returns whatever is current. Use it whenever you need to do something with anything which might get a focus or be selectable otherwise

All methods could be called as functions, methods or class methods.

CLASS METHODS

Top

config

    my $config = Padre::Current->config;

Returns a Padre::Config object for the current document.

Padre has three types of configuration: User-specific, host-specific and project-specific, this method returnsa config object which includes the current values - ne need to for you to care about which config is active and which has priority.

document

    my $document = Padre::Current->document;

Returns a Padre::Document object for the current document.

editor

    my $editor = Padre::Current->editor;

Returns a Padre::Editor object for the current editor (containing the current document).

filename

    my $filename = Padre::Current->filename;

Returns the filename of the current document.

ide

    my $ide = Padre::Current->ide;

Returns a Padre::Wx object of the current ide.

main

    my $main = Padre::Current->main;

Returns a Padre::Wx::Main object of the current ide.

notebook

    my $main = Padre::Current->notebook;

Returns a Padre::Wx::Notebook object of the current notebook.

project

    my $main = Padre::Current->project;

Returns a Padre::Project object of the current project.

text

    my $main = Padre::Current->text;

Returns the current selection (selected text in the current document).

title

    my $main = Padre::Current->title;

Returns the title of the current editor window.

NAME

Top

Padre::Current - convenient access to current objects within Padre

SYNOPSIS

Top

    my $main = Padre::Current->main;
    # ...

DESCRIPTION

Top

Padre uses lots of objects from different classes. And one needs to have access to the current object of this sort or this other to do whatever is need at the time.

Instead of poking directly with the various classes to find the object you need, Padre::Current provides a bunch of handy methods to retrieve whatever current object you need.

METHODS

Top

new

    # Vanilla constructor
    Padre::Current->new;

    # Seed the object with some context
    Padre::Current->new( document => $document );

The new constructor creates a new context object, it optionally takes one or more named parameters which should be any context the caller is aware of before he calls the constructor.

Providing this seed context allows the context object to derive parts of the current context from other parts, without the need to fall back to the last-resort Padre->ide singleton-fetching method.

Many objects in Padre that are considered to be part of them context will have a current method which automatically creates the context object with it as a seed.

Returns a new Padre::Current object.

ide

Return the Padre singleton for the IDE instance.

config

Returns the current Padre::Config configuration object for the IDE.

main

Returns the Padre::Wx::Main object for the main window.

notebook

Returns the Padre::Wx::Notebook object for the main window.

document

Returns the active Padre::Document document object.

editor

Returns the Padre::Editor editor object for the active document.

filename

Returns the file name of the active document, if it has one.

title

Return the title of current editor window.

project

Return the Padre::Project project object for the active document.

text

Returns the selected text, or a null string if nothing is selected.
