NAME Template::Plugin::HashMerge - TT2 plugin to use Hash::Merge SYNOPSIS [% USE HashMerge %] [% a = { foo => 1, bar => [ 'a', 'b', 'e' ], baz => { bob => 'alice', }, }; b = { foo => 2, bar => [ 'c', 'd' ], baz => { ted => 'margeret', }, }; HashMerge.set_behaviour( 'RIGHT_PRECEDENT' ); c = HashMerge.merge( a, b ); %] DESCRIPTION Template::Toolkit plugin HashMerge provides the Hash::Merge functions "merge" and "set_behaviour" to be used within templates. This can be useful in all cases a template works directly on data - e.g. when processing results from a query using Template::DBI and join the result with results from derived queries. USAGE [% USE HashMerge %] [% HashMerge.set_behaviour( ); result = HashMerge.merge( hash1, hash2 ); %] Detailed function description and default behaviours are available in Hash::Merge. If you prefer to use virtual hash methods, see Template::Plugin::HashMergeVMethods.
