NAME

       PPIx::EditorTools::RenameVariable - Lexically replace a variable name in Perl code

SYNOPSIS

	   my $munged = PPIx::EditorTools::RenameVariable->new->rename(
	       code	   => $code,
	       line	   => 15,
	       column	   => 13,
	       replacement => 'stuff',
	   );
	   my $code_as_strig = $munged->code;
	   my $code_as_ppi   = $munged->ppi;
	   my $location      = $munged->element->location;

DESCRIPTION

       This module will lexically replace a variable name.

METHODS

       new()
	   Constructor. Generally shouldn't be called with any arguments.

       rename( ppi => PPI::Document $ppi, line => Int, column => Int, replacement => Str ) =item rename( code => Str $code, line => Int, column =>
       Int, replacement => Str ) =item rename( code => Str $code, line => Int, column => Int, to_camel_case => Bool, [ucfirst => Bool] ) =item
       rename( code => Str $code, line => Int, column => Int, from_camel_case => Bool, [ucfirst => Bool] )
	   Accepts either a "PPI::Document" to process or a string containing the code (which will be converted into a "PPI::Document") to
	   process.  Renames the variable found at line, column with that supplied in the "replacement" parameter and returns a
	   "PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject" with the new code available via the "ppi" or "code" accessors, as a "PPI::Document" or "string",
	   respectively. The "PPI::Token" found at line, column is available via the "element" accessor.

	   Instead of specifying an explicit replacement variable name, you may choose to use the "to_camel_case" or "from_camel_case" options
	   that automatically convert to/from camelCase. In that mode, the "ucfirst" option will force uppercasing of the first letter.

	   You can not specify a replacement name and use the "to/from_camel_case" options.

	   Croaks with a "no token" exception if no token is found at the location.  Croaks with a "no declaration" exception if unable to find
	   the declaration.
