NAME

6       File::Find::Object::Rule::Procedural - File::Find::Object::Rule's
7       procedural interface
8

VERSION

10       version 0.0312
11

SYNOPSIS

13         use File::Find::Object::Rule;
14
15         # find all .pm files, procedurally
16         my @files = find(file => name => '*.pm', in => \@INC);
17

DESCRIPTION

19       In addition to the regular object-oriented interface,
20       File::Find::Object::Rule provides two subroutines for you to use.
21
22       "find( @clauses )"
23       "rule( @clauses )"
24           "find" and "rule" can be used to invoke any methods available to
25           the OO version.  "rule" is a synonym for "find"
26
27       Passing more than one value to a clause is done with an anonymous
28       array:
29
30        my $finder = find( name => [ '*.mp3', '*.ogg' ] );
31
32       "find" and "rule" both return a File::Find::Object::Rule instance,
33       unless one of the arguments is "in", in which case it returns a list of
34       things that match the rule.
35
36        my @files = find( name => [ '*.mp3', '*.ogg' ], in => $ENV{HOME} );
37
38       Please note that "in" will be the last clause evaluated, and so this
39       code will search for mp3s regardless of size.
40
41        my @files = find( name => '*.mp3', in => $ENV{HOME}, size => '<2k' );
42                                                           ^
43                                                           |
44                      Clause processing stopped here ------/
45
46       It is also possible to invert a single rule by prefixing it with "!"
47       like so:
48
49        # large files that aren't videos
50        my @files = find( file    =>
51                          '!name' => [ '*.avi', '*.mov' ],
52                          size    => '>20M',
53                          in      => $ENV{HOME} );
