SYNOPSIS
my $rule = Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Tokens->new(
tokens => [ 'attack', qr/^w+$/ ],
block => sub {
my $match = shift;
attack($match->pos(2))
},
);
my $match = $rule->match("attack dragon");
# introspection
$match->path # "attack dragon"
$match->leftover # empty string (populated with prefix rules)
$match->rule # $rule
$match->positional_captures # ["attack", "dragon"] (decided by the rule)
$match->pos(1) # "attack"
$match->pos(2) # "dragon"
$match->run # attack("dragon")
DESCRIPTION

The Path::Dispatcher::Rule that created this match.
path
The path that the rule matched.
leftover

named_captures
Any named captures generated by the rule. For example, Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Regex populates this with named captures.
parent
The parent match object, if applicable (which may be set if this match is the child of, for exampl, a Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Under prefix)
METHODS
