Anvil::Tools::Convert

Provides all methods related to converting data.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Anvil::Tools;

 # Get a common object handle on all Anvil::Tools modules.
 my $anvil = Anvil::Tools->new();
 
 # Access to methods using '$anvil->Convert->X'. 
 # 
 # Example using 'cidr()';
 my $subnet = $anvil->Convert->codr({cidr => "24"});

=head2 add_commas

This takes an integer and inserts commas to make it more readable by people.

If the input string isn't a string of digits, it is simply returned as-is. 

Parameters;

=head3 number (required)

This is the number to add commas to.

=head2 bytes_to_human_readable

This takes a number of bytes and converts it to a a human-readable format. Optionally, you can request the human readable size be returned using specific units.

If anything goes wrong, C<< !!error!! >> is returned.

Parameters;

=head3 base2 (optional)

This can be set to C<< 1 >> to return the units in base2 notation, or set to C<< 0 >> to return in base10 notation. The default is controlled by c<< sys::use_base2 >>, which is set to C<< 1 >> by default.

The suffix will use C<< XiB >> when base2 notation is used and C<< XB >> will be returned for base10.

=head3 bytes (required)

This is the number of bytes that will be converted. This can be a signed integer.

=head3 unit (optional)

This is a letter

=head2 cidr

This takes an IPv4 CIDR notation and returns the dotted-decimal subnet, or the reverse.

 # Convert a CIDR notation to a subnet.
 my $subnet = $anvil->Convert->cidr({cidr => "24"});

In the other direction;
 
 # Convert a subnet to a CIDR notation.
 my $cidr = $anvil->Convert->cidr({subnet => "255.255.255.0"});

If the input data is invalid, an empty string will be returned.

=head2 Parameters;

There are two parameters, each of which is optional, but one of them is required. 

=head3 cidr (optional)

This is a CIDR notation (between 0 and 24) to convert to a dotted-decimal address.

=head3 subnet (optional)

This is a dotted-decimal subnet to convert to a CIDR notation.

=head2 hostname_to_ip

This method takes a hostname and tries to convert it to an IP address. If it fails, it will return C<< 0 >>.

Parameters;

=head3 hostname

This is the host name (or domain name) to try and convert to an IP address.

=head2 human_readable_to_bytes

This takes a "human readable" size with an ISO suffix and converts it back to a base byte size as accurately as possible.

It looks for the C<< i >> in the suffix to determine if the size is base2 or base10. This can be overridden with the optional C<< base2 >> or C<< base10 >> parameters.

If there is a problem, C<< !!error!! >> is returned.

Parameters;

=head3 base2 (optional)

This tells the method to interpret the human-readable suffix as base2 notation, even if it is in the format C<< XB >> instead of C<< XiB >>.

=head3 base10 (optional)

This tells the method to interpret the human-readable suffix as base10 notation, even if it is in the format C<< XiB >> instead of C<< XB >>.

=head3 size (required)

This is the size being converted. It can be a signed integer or real number (with a decimal). If this parameter includes the size suffix, you can skip setting the c<< type >> parameter and this method will break it off automatically.

=head3 type (optional)

This is the unit type that represents the C<< size >> value. This does not need to be used if the C<< size >> parameter already has the suffix. 

This value is examined for C<< XiB >> or C<< XB >> notation to determine if the size should be interpreted as a base2 or base10 value when neither C<< base2 >> or C<< base10 >> parameters are set.

=head2 round

This takes a number and rounds it to a given number of places after the decimal (defaulting to an even integer). This does financial-type rounding.

If C<< -- >> is passed in, the same is returned. Any other problems will cause C<< !!error!! >> to be returned.

Parameters;

=head3 number (required)

This is the number being rounded.

=head3 places (optional)

This is an integer representing how many places to round the number to. The default is C<< 0 >>, rounding the number to the closest integer.
