24
25  # abstract class - don't use directly!
26  # see TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory for general usage
27
28  # must be sub-classed for use

35
36=head1 DESCRIPTION
37
38This is an abstract base class for L<TAP::Parser::Source> handlers / handlers.
39
40A C<TAP::Parser::SourceHandler> does whatever is necessary to produce & capture
41a stream of TAP from the I<raw> source, and package it up in a
42L<TAP::Parser::Iterator> for the parser to consume.
43
44C<SourceHandlers> must implement the I<source detection & handling> interface
45used by L<TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory>.  At 2 methods, the interface is pretty
46simple: L</can_handle> and L</make_source>.
47
48Unless you're writing a new L<TAP::Parser::SourceHandler>, a plugin, or
49subclassing L<TAP::Parser>, you probably won't need to use this module directly.

56
57I<Abstract method>.
58
59  my $vote = $class->can_handle( $source );
60
61C<$source> is a L<TAP::Parser::Source>.
62
63Returns a number between C<0> & C<1> reflecting how confidently the raw source
64can be handled.  For example, C<0> means the source cannot handle it, C<0.5>
65means it may be able to, and C<1> means it definitely can.  See
66L<TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory/detect_source> for details on how this is used.

82
83C<$source> is a L<TAP::Parser::Source>.
84
85Returns a new L<TAP::Parser::Iterator> object for use by the L<TAP::Parser>.

100=head1 SUBCLASSING
101
102Please see L<TAP::Parser/SUBCLASSING> for a subclassing overview, and any
103of the subclasses that ship with this module as an example.  What follows is
104a quick overview.
105
106Start by familiarizing yourself with L<TAP::Parser::Source> and
107L<TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory>.  L<TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::RawTAP> is
108the easiest sub-class to use an an example.
109
110It's important to point out that if you want your subclass to be automatically
111used by L<TAP::Parser> you'll have to and make sure it gets loaded somehow.
112If you're using L<prove> you can write an L<App::Prove> plugin.  If you're
113using L<TAP::Parser> or L<TAP::Harness> directly (e.g. through a custom script,
114L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker>, or L<Module::Build>) you can use the C<config> option
115which will cause L<TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory/load_sources> to load your
116subclass).
117
118Don't forget to register your class with
119L<TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory/register_handler>.
