NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Documentation::RequirePodLinksIncludeText - Provide text to display with your pod links. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
This Policy requires your POD links to contain text to override your POD translator's default link text, where this is possible. Failure to provide your own text leaves you at the mercy of the POD translator, which may display something like "L<Foo>" as "the Foo manpage". By default, links that specify a documentation section (for example, "L<Foo/bar>", or "L</bar>") are exempt from this Policy. CONFIGURATION
This Policy has two boolean options to configure the handling of links that specify a documentation section. The "allow_external_sections" option configures the handling of links of the form "L<Foo/bar>". If true, such links are accepted even without a text specification. Such links tend to be turned into something like "bar in Foo". By default, this option is asserted. If you want to prohibit things like "L<Foo/bar>" (while allowing things like "L<< Foo->bar()|Foo/bar >>"), put something like this in your .perlcriticrc: [Documentation::RequirePodLinksIncludeText] allow_external_sections = 0 The "allow_internal_sections" option configures the handling of links of the form "L</bar>". If true, such links are accepted even without a text specification. Such links tend to be turned into something like "bar". By default, this option is asserted. If you want to prohibit things like "L</bar>" (while allowing things like "L<bar()|/bar>"), put something like this in your .perlcriticrc: [Documentation::RequirePodLinksIncludeText] allow_internal_sections = 0 AUTHOR

Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateUseroContributed PPerl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines(3pm)

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines - Prevent unused private subroutines. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
By convention Perl authors (like authors in many other languages) indicate private methods and variables by inserting a leading underscore before the identifier. This policy catches such subroutines which are not used in the file which declares them. This module defines a 'use' of a subroutine as a subroutine or method call to it (other than from inside the subroutine itself), a reference to it (i.e. "my $foo = &_foo"), a "goto" to it outside the subroutine itself (i.e. "goto &_foo"), or the use of the subroutine's name as an even-numbered argument to "use overload". CONFIGURATION
You can define what a private subroutine name looks like by specifying a regular expression for the "private_name_regex" option in your .perlcriticrc: [Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines] private_name_regex = _(?!_)w+ The above example is a way of saying that subroutines that start with a double underscore are not considered to be private. (Perl::Critic, in its implementation, uses leading double underscores to indicate a distribution-private subroutine -- one that is allowed to be invoked by other Perl::Critic modules, but not by anything outside of Perl::Critic.) You can configure additional subroutines to accept by specifying them in a space-delimited list to the "allow" option: [Subroutines::ProhibitUnusedPrivateSubroutines] allow = _bar _baz These are added to the default list of exemptions from this policy. So the above allows "sub _bar {}" and "sub _baz {}", even if they are not referred to in the module that defines them. HISTORY
This policy is derived from Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProtectPrivateSubs, which looks at the other side of the problem. BUGS
Does not forbid "sub Foo::_foo{}" because it does not know (and can not assume) what is in the "Foo" package. SEE ALSO
