Data::Stream::Bulk::Array(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			    Data::Stream::Bulk::Array(3pm)

NAME
Data::Stream::Bulk::Array - Data::Stream::Bulk wrapper for simple arrays. VERSION
version 0.11 SYNOPSIS
return Data::Stream::Bulk::Array->new( array => @results, ); DESCRIPTION
This implementation of the Data::Stream::Bulk api wraps an array. The use case is to keep the consumer of the data set implementation agnostic so that it can deal with larger data sets if they are encountered, but still retain most of the simplicity when the current data set easily fits in memory. ATTRIBUTES
array The array reference to wrap. METHODS
next Returns the array reference on the first invocation, and nothing thereafter. is_done Returns true if "next" has been called. list_cat Squishes adjacent arrays into a new array. filter $filter Immediately applies $filter to the internal array and returns $self. loaded Returns true AUTHOR
