=head1 NAME

Anvil::Tools::Words

Provides all methods related to generating translated strings for users.

=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->Words->X'. 
 # 
 # Example using 'read()';
 my $foo_path = $anvil->Words->read({file => $anvil->data->{path}{words}{'anvil.xml'}});

=head2 clean_spaces

This methid takes a string via a 'C<< line >>' parameter and strips leading and trailing spaces, plus compresses multiple spaces into single spaces. It is designed primarily for use by code parsing text coming in from a shell command.

 my $line = $anvil->Words->clean_spaces({ string => $_ });

Parameters;

=head3 string (required)

This sets the string to be cleaned. If it is not passed in, or if the string is empty, then an empty string will be returned without error.

=cut
sub clean_spaces
{
	my $self      = shift;
	my $parameter = shift;
	my $anvil     = $self->parent;
	my $debug     = defined $parameter->{debug} ? $parameter->{debug} : 3;
	
	# Setup default values
	my $string =  defined $parameter->{string} ? $parameter->{string} : "";
	   $string =~ s/^\s+//;
	   $string =~ s/\s+$//;
	   $string =~ s/\s+/ /g;
	
	return($string);
}

=head2 key

NOTE: This is likely not the method you want. This method does no parsing at all. It returns the raw string from the 'words' file. You probably want C<< $anvil->Words->string() >> if you want to inject variables and get a string back ready to display to the user.

This returns a string by its key name. Optionally, a language and/or a source file can be specified. When no file is specified, loaded files will be search in alphabetical order (including path) and the first match is returned. 

If the requested string is not found, 'C<< #!not_found!# >>' is returned.

Example to retrieve 'C<< t_0001 >>';

 my $string = $anvil->Words->key({key => 't_0001'});

Same, but specifying the key from Canadian english;

 my $string = $anvil->Words->key({
 	key      => 't_0001',
 	language => 'en_CA',
 });

Same, but specifying a source file.

 my $string = $anvil->Words->key({
 	key      => 't_0001',
 	language => 'en_CA',
 	file     => 'anvil.xml',
 });

Parameters;

=head3 file (optional)

This is the specific file to read the string from. It should generally not be needed as string keys should not be reused. However, if it happens, this is a way to specify which file's version you want.

The file can be the file name, or a path. The specified file is search for by matching the the passed in string against the end of the file path. For example, 'C<< file => 'AN/anvil.xml' >> will match the file 'c<< /usr/share/perl5/AN/anvil.xml >>'.

=head3 key (required)

This is the key to return the string for.

=head3 language (optional)

This is the ISO code for the language you wish to read. For example, 'en_CA' to get the Canadian English string, or 'jp' for the Japanese string.

When no language is passed, 'C<< Words->language >>' is used.

=head2 parse_banged_string

This takes a string (usually from a DB record) in the format C<< <string_key>[,!!var1!value1!!,!!var2!value2!!,...,!!varN!valueN!! >> and converts it into an actual string.

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

Parameters;

=head3 key_string (required)

This is the double-banged string to process. It can take and process multiple lines at once, so long as each line is in the above format, broken by a simple new line (C<< \n >>).

=head2 read

This reads in a words file containing translated strings used to generated output for the user. 

Example to read 'C<< anvil.xml >>';

 my $words_file = $anvil->data->{path}{words}{'an-words.xml'};
 my $anvil->Words->read({file => $words_file}) or die "Failed to read: [$words_file]. Does the file exist?\n";

Successful read will return '0'. Non-0 is an error;
0 = OK
1 = Invalid file name or path
2 = File not found
3 = File not readable
4 = File found, failed to read for another reason. The error details will be printed.

NOTE: Read works are stored in 'C<< $anvil->data->{words}{<file_name>}{language}{<language>}{string}{content} >>'. Metadata, like what languages are provided, are stored under 'C<< $anvil->data->{words}{<file_name>}{meta}{...} >>'.

Parameters;

=head3 file (required)

This is the file to read.

	return($return_code);
}

=head2 string

This method takes a string key and returns the string in the requested language. If not key is passed, the language key in 'defaults::languages::output' is used. A hash reference containing variables can be provided to inject values into a string.

If the requested string is not found, 'C<< #!not_found!# >>' is returned.

Example to retrieve 'C<< t_0001 >>';

 my $string = $anvil->Words->string({key => 't_0001'});

This time, requesting 'C<< t_0002 >>' and passing in two variables. Note that 'C<< t_0002 >>' in Canadian English is;

 Test Out of order: [#!variable!second!#] replace: [#!variable!first!#].

So to request this string in Canadian English is the two variables inserted, we would call:

 my $string = $anvil->Words->string({
 	language  => 'en_CA',
 	key       => 't_0002',
 	variables => {
 		first  => "foo",
 		second => "bar",
 	},
 });

This would return;

 Test Out of order: [bar] replace: [foo].

Normally, there should never be a key collision. However, just in case you find yourself needing to request the string from a specific file, you can do the same call with a file specified.

 my $string = $anvil->Words->string({
 	language  => 'en_CA',
 	file      => 'anvil.xml',
 	key       => 't_0002',
 	variables => {
		first  => "foo",
		second => "bar",
 	},
 });

If the passed in key isn't found (at all, or for the given language or file if specified), then 'C<< #!not_found!# >>' will be returned.

Parameters;

=head3 file (optional)

This is the specific file to read the string from. It should generally not be needed as string keys should not be reused. However, if it happens, this is a way to specify which file's version you want.

=head3 key (required)

This is the key to return the string for.

NOTE: This is ignored when 'C<< string >>' is used.

=head3 language (optional)

This is the ISO code for the language you wish to read the string from. For example, 'en_CA' to get the Canadian English string, or 'jp' for the Japanese string.

When no language is passed, 'C<< defaults::languages::output >>' is used. 

=head3 string (optional)

If this is passed, it is treated as a raw string that needs variables inserted. When this is used, the 'C<< key >>' parameter is ignored.

=head3 variables (depends)

If the string being requested has one or more 'C<< #!variable!x!# >>' replacement keys, then you must pass a hash reference containing the keys / value pairs where the key matches the replacement string.

=head2 _wrap_string

When printing strings to the console, this will wrap the string based on the current output of C<< $anvil->Get->_wrap_to >> (which itself updates C<< sys::terminal::columns >>).

This method looks for a string that starts with spaces or C<< [ foo ] - >> type leader and preserves the spacing when wrapping lines.

This returns the wrapped string as a simple string variable.

Parameters;

=head3 string

This is the string to wrap. If no string is passed in, a blank string will be returned.
