I'm attempting to have a fixer that says "if this field hasn't already been set, set it to "0", so I have:
unless exists('onloan')
add_field('onloan', '0')
end
This causes the error:
can't load fix unless exists('onloan')
add_field('onloan', '0')
end
: coercion for "_fixer" (constructor argument: "fix") failed: Bareword found
where operator expected at (eval 85) line 2, near ")
add_field"
It's possibly of note that the following from the cheat sheet fails
also:
unless exists('oogly')
upcase('foo') # foo => 'bar'
end
with the same form of error. (Also, that comment is probably incorrect.)
A related question:
When I have a fixer like this that is three lines long, and I'm passing
in an array of fixers to the Catmandu::Fix constructor, what do I do
with the multiline ones? Should it be three strings in the array, should
it one string all on one line, or should it be one string with embedded
newlines?
When I try the final option, I get the error:
Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at
/usr/share/perl5/Catmandu/Fix/Loader.pm line 33.
which is a standard Perl exception when you do a file operation on a
string with a \n anywhere that fails.
