Perltidy alignment of fat comma =>

LanX has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

colleague asked me how to make perltidy align all fat commas in a hash.

The ternary in the following example seems to block alignment

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

sub test {

    my ( $result, $data, $date );

    return {
        res => 1 ? 1 : 0,
        errtext => $result->{errtext},
        info        => $data,
        timestamp      => ( $date->dmy('-') . ' ' . $date->hms ),
    };
}

>perltidy -pbp tidy_align.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;

sub test {

    my ( $result, $data, $date );

    return {
        res => 1 ? 1 : 0,
        errtext   => $result->{errtext},
        info      => $data,
        timestamp => ( $date->dmy('-') . ' ' . $date->hms ),
    };
}

FWIW adding another entry before the ternary seems to make it work again.

Browsed thru documentation couldn't find a flag addressing this, not sure which term is used for "alignment" of values in recursive structures.

Looks like a bug for me ... ideas?

Such an option ought to be in the 'Code Indentation Control' section, but I couldn't find one. It does seem like a bug.	[reply]

Yeah most probably a bug, had the same problem with `perltidy, v20160302` and the CHANGES of the CPAN distribution do not mention any related fix. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply] [d/l]
