NAME
JavaScript::Any - evaluate some javascript using the best available
Javascript implementation
SYNOPSIS
use JavaScript::Any qw( jseval );
my $sum = jseval('1 + 2'); # 3
Or:
use JavaScript::Any;
my $context = JavaScript::Any->new_context;
$context->define( say => sub { print @_, "\n" } );
$context->eval('say(1 + 2)');
DESCRIPTION
This module is a thin wrapper around JavaScript::V8, JavaScript::Duktape,
and JE, allowing you to evaluate strings of Javascript code from Perl.
Status
This is a very early alpha version. The API still needs documenting and
cleaning up a lot.
In particular, the API for defining custom Javascript functions exposes
differences between the alternative Javascript implementations. Future
versions of JavaScript::Any will smooth some of these out.
Functional Interface
This module can export one function. It is not exported by default.
`jseval($str)`
Evaluates the string of Javascript in a fresh context and returns the
result.
Object-Oriented Interface
For more advanced features, use the object-oriented interface.
`JavaScript::Any->new_context(%opts)`
Factory method returning an object which implements the
JavaScript::Any::Context API.
