A lazy way to differentiate similar variables is by tacking a number at the end. my $total = $price * $quantity; my $total2 = $total + ($total * $taxrate); my $total3 = $total2 + $shipping; The difference between C<$total> and C<$total3> is not described by the silly "3" at the end. Instead, it should be: my $merch_total = $price * $quantity; my $subtotal = $merch_total + ($merch_total * $taxrate); my $grand_total = $subtotal + $shipping; Both variable and subroutine names are checked. See L for more of my ranting on this. =head1 CONFIGURATION This policy has two options: C and C. =head2 C This policy starts with a list of numbered names that are legitimate to have ending with a number: base64 md5 rc4 sha0 sha1 sha256 utf8 x11 win32 The exceptions for the policy also apply to names based on the exceptions. If C<$base64> is acceptable as an exception, so is C<$calculated_base64>. The exception must be separated from the left part of the name by at least one underscore to be recognized. The exceptions are case-insensitive. C<$UTF8> and C<$utf8> are both seen the same as far as being exceptions. To replace the list of exceptions, specify a value for the C option. [Bangs::ProhibitNumberedNames] exceptions = logan7 babylon5 =head2 C To add exceptions to the list, give a value for C in your F<.perlcriticrc> file like this: [Bangs::ProhibitNumberedNames] add_exceptions = adam12 route66 =cut sub initialize_if_enabled { my ( $self, $config ) = @_; $self->{_exceptions} = { %{ $self->{_exceptions} }, %{ $self->{_add_exceptions} } }; return $TRUE; } sub _init_exception_regexes { my $self = shift; my @regexes; for my $exception ( keys %{$self->{_exceptions}} ) { push( @regexes, qr/.*_\Q$exception\E$/ ); } $self->{_exception_regexes} = \@regexes; return; } sub violates { my ( $self, $elem, $doc ) = @_; my @violations; my $type = ref($elem); if ( $type eq 'PPI::Statement::Variable' ) { for my $symbol ( $elem->symbols ) { # make $basename be the variable name with no sigils or namespaces. my $fullname = $symbol->canonical; my $basename = $fullname; $basename =~ s/.*:://; $basename =~ s/^[\$@%]//; push( @violations, $self->_potential_violation( $symbol, $fullname, $basename, 'Variable' ) ); } } elsif ( $type eq 'PPI::Statement::Sub' ) { my $fullname = $elem->name; my $basename = $fullname; $basename =~ s/.*:://; push( @violations, $self->_potential_violation( $elem, $fullname, $basename, 'Subroutine' ) ); } elsif ( $type eq 'PPI::Statement::Scheduled' ) { # Ignore BEGIN, INIT, etc } else { die "Unknown type $type"; } return @violations; } sub _potential_violation { my $self = shift; my $symbol = shift; my $fullname = shift; my $basename = shift; my $what = shift; if ( $basename =~ /\D+\d+$/ ) { $basename = lc $basename; # Check to see if it's an exact match for an exception. # $md5 is excepted by "md5" return if $self->{_exceptions}{$basename}; # Check to see if they match the end of the variable regexes. # $foo_md5 is excepted by "md5" $self->_init_exception_regexes unless $self->{_exception_regexes}; for my $re ( @{$self->{_exception_regexes}} ) { return if $basename =~ $re; # We're OK via exception } my $desc = qq{$what named "$fullname"}; my $expl = "$what names should not be differentiated only by digits"; return $self->violation( $desc, $expl, $symbol ); } return; } 1; __END__ =head1 AUTHOR Andy Lester C<< >> =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2006-2013 Andy Lester This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the Artistic License 2.0. =cut
