=head1 NAME
Devel::hdb::App::Eval - Evaluate data in the debugged program's context
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Registers routes for evaluating arbitrary Perl code and for inspecting
variables in the debugged program.
=head2 Routes
=over 4
=item POST /eval
Evaluate a string of Perl code in the context of the debugged process.
The code is evaluated in the content of the nearest stack frame that
is not part of the debugger. The request body must contain a JSON-encoded
hash with these keys:
code => String of Perl code to evaluate
wantarray => 0, 1 or undef; whether to evaluate the code in scalar list
or void context
Returns 200 if successful and the result in the body. The body contents
should be decoded using Data::Transform::ExplicitMetadata
Returns 409 if there was an exception. The body contents should be decoded
using Data::Transform::ExplicitMetadata
=item GET /getvar/<level>
Get a list of all the lexical variables at the given stack level.
Return a JSON-encoded array containing hashes with these keys:
name => Name of the variable, including the sigil
href => URL to use to get the value of the variable
Returns 404 if the requested stack level does not exist.
=item GET /getvar/<level>/<varname>
Searches the requested stack frame for the named variable. 0 is the currently
executing stack frame, 1 is the frame above that, etc. The variable must
include the sigil, and may be a more complicated expression indicating a
portion of a composite value. For example:
$scalar A simple scalar value
@array The entire array
$array[1] One element of the array
$hash{key1} One element of the hash
@array[1,2] Array slice
@hash{key1,key2} Hash slice
@array[1 .. 2] Array slice with a range
Returns 200 and JSON in the body. The returned JSON is an
encoded version of whatever the Perl code evaluated to, and should
be decoded with Data::Transform::ExplicitMetadata.
