WebPerlizator - automating WebPerl (by haukex) page creation

Hello nuns and monks!

did you heard the big news? WebPerl by haukex is here!

I smell it as the best thing happened to Perl since years (alongside with MCE ..) and I already used to produce PM examples: very useful and shining.

But as I'm really lazy I wrote the below snippet that try to automate the process of copying perl code to the page, creating input files, etc..

Imagine that you have simple_reader.pl as follow:

use strict; use warnings; open my $fh,'<', 'input1.txt' or die; while (<$fh>) {print if /b/}

and input1.txt containing:

aaa bbb ccc

then you can just run:

perl webperlizator.pl -s simple_reader.pl -i input1.txt https://webperl.zero-g.net/democode/perleditor.html#%7B%22script_fn%22 +%3A%22simple_reader.pl%22%2C%22script %22%3A%22use%20strict%3B%5Cnuse%20warnings%3B%5Cn%5Cnopen%20my%20%24fh +%2C%27%3C%27%2C%20%27input1.txt%27%20or %20die%3B%20%5Cnwhile%20%28%3C%24fh%3E%29%20%7Bprint%20if%20%2Fb%2F%7D +%22%2C%22inputs%22%3A%5B%7B%22text%22%3 A%22aaa%5Cnbbb%5Cnccc%5Cn%22%2C%22fn%22%3A%22input1.txt%22%7D%5D%2C%22 +cmdline%22%3A%22perl%20simple_reader.pl%22%7D

or even perl webperlizator.pl  -s simple_reader.pl -i input1.txt --browse to open it directly in the browser!

have fun and thanks haukex!!

update newer version, with more features, is on my github

use strict; use warnings; use URI::Escape; use Getopt::Long; use JSON::MaybeXS qw(encode_json); my (@infiles, @outfiles, $script, $lineofcode, $browse, $help); unless ( GetOptions ( "script=s" => \$script, "line|oneliner|code|c=s" => \$lineofcode, "inputfiles=s" => \@infiles, "outputfiles|o=s" => \@outfiles, "browse" => \$browse, "help" => \$help )) { print "GetOpt::Long returned errors (see a +bove), available options:\n\n".help(); exit; } if ($help){ print help(); exit 0;} my $json = {}; if ($lineofcode){ $$json{cmdline} = "perl $lineofcode"; } elsif ($script){ open my $fh, '<', $script or die "unable to read $script!"; while (<$fh>){ $$json{script} .= $_ ; } $$json{script_fn} = $script; $$json{cmdline} = "perl $script"; } else{ die "Please feed at least one script using -script or a line of pe +rl code via -code\n\n".help(); } if ( $infiles[0] ){ $$json{inputs}=[]; } foreach my $in (@infiles){ open my $fh, '<', $in or die "unable to read $in!"; my $file = { fn => $in}; while (<$fh>){ $$file{text}.=$_; } push @{$$json{inputs}},$file; } if ( $outfiles[0]){ $$json{outputs} = \@outfiles ; } my $url = 'https://webperl.zero-g.net/democode/perleditor.html#'.(uri_ +escape( encode_json( $json ) )); if ($browse){ if ($^O =~/mswin32/i) {exec "start $url"} else{ exec "xdg-open $url"} } else{ print $url; } #### sub help{ return <<EOH; $0 USAGE: --script file|--code line [--inputfile file [--inputfile file] --o +utputfile file [--outputfile file] --browse] $0 -script script.pl $0 -script script.pl [ -inputfile file1.txt -inputfile file2.txt +-outputfile file3.txt -browse] $0 -code "-e 'print qq(Hello WebPerl!)'" $0 -code "-e 'print qq(Hello WebPerl!)'" [ -i infile1.txt -i infil +e2.txt -o outfile3.txt -browse] --script -s accept a perl program filename as only argument. Both --script and --code make no sense: just specify one. --code -c is intended to be used to pass a oneliner. The execu +table name, aka perl, will be prepended automatically. Any perl switch must be explicitly passed + also -e For example: webperlizator.pl -code "-le 'print qq(Hello WebPerl!)'" webperlizator.pl -code "-lne 'print \"found a b\" if /b/' file1.tx +t" -i file1.txt -b Pay attention on quotes suitable for you OS. --inputfiles -i is for input files; more than one can be feed --outputfiles -o is for output file and more than one can be passe +d in --browse -b open the default browser, hopefully, pointing to the W +ebPerl right page --help -h prints this help EOH }

    Very nice, thank you!

    A note on the quoting of the "command line": The code that parses the command line is currently kind of simplistic. If an argument is surrounded by double quotes, then the only two things inside those quotes that get special treatment are double-backslashes (\\, aka "\\\\"), which produce a single backslash, and \", which produces a double-quote; all other characters, including single quotes, are not touched. The same goes for arguments surrounded by single quotes, where double quotes are not touched. (Update: I've now updated the documentation to describe this.)

    So something like perl -e 'print "Foo\'Bar"' is fine, the equivalent Perl script is print "Foo'Bar".

    I should also add that you can also edit everything directly in the editor:

    • Add a script and input/output files via the "Tools" menu
    • Delete files with the link at the top right of each file
    • Rename files simply by editing their name
    • The "Copy URL" function will get the URL of the current state of the editor into the clipboard
    • Update: Also, set options like the brand new "autorun" (applies to the copied link) and "merge STDOUT + STDERR" via the "Tools" menu
