NAME
       POE::Filter::Grep - select or remove items based on simple rules

SYNOPSIS
         #!perl

         use POE qw(
           Wheel::FollowTail
           Filter::Line Filter::Grep Filter::Stackable
         );

         POE::Session->create(
           inline_states => {
             _start => sub {
               my $parse_input_as_lines = POE::Filter::Line->new();

               my $select_sudo_log_lines = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
                 Put => sub { 1 },
                 Get => sub {
                   my $input = shift;
                   return $input =~ /sudo\[\d+\]/i;
                 },
               );

               my $filter_stack = POE::Filter::Stackable->new(
                 Filters => [
                   $parse_input_as_lines, # first on get, last on put
                   $select_sudo_log_lines, # first on put, last on get
                 ]
               );

               $_[HEAP]{tailor} = POE::Wheel::FollowTail->new(
                 Filename => "/var/log/system.log",
                 InputEvent => "got_log_line",
                 Filter => $filter_stack,
               );
             },
             got_log_line => sub {
               print "Log: $_[ARG0]\n";
             }
           }
         );

         POE::Kernel->run();
         exit;

DESCRIPTION
       POE::Filter::Grep selects or removes items based on simple tests.  It may be used to
       filter input, output, or both.  This filter is named and modeled after Perl's built-in
       grep() function.

       POE::Filter::Grep is designed to be combined with other filters through
       POE::Filter::Stackable.  In the "SYNOPSIS" example, a filter stack is created to parse
       logs as lines and remove all entries that don't pertain to a sudo process.  (Or if your
       glass is half full, the stack only selects entries that DO mention sudo.)

PUBLIC FILTER METHODS
       In addition to the usual POE::Filter methods, POE::Filter::Grep also supports the
       following.

   new
       new() constructs a new POE::Filter::Grep object.  It must either be called with a single
       Code parameter, or both a Put and a Get parameter.  The values for Code, Put, and Get are
       code references that, when invoked, return true to select an item or false to reject it.
       A Code function will be used for both input and output, while Get and Put functions allow
       input and output to be filtered in different ways.  The item in question will be passed as
       the function's sole parameter.

         sub reject_bidoofs {
           my $pokemon = shift;
           return 1 if $pokemon ne "bidoof";
           return;
         }

         my $gotta_catch_nearly_all = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
           Code => \&reject_bidoofs,
         );

       Enforce read-only behavior:

         my $read_only = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
           Get => sub { 1 },
           Put => sub { 0 },
         );

   modify
       modify() changes a POE::Filter::Grep object's behavior at run-time.  It accepts the same
       parameters as new(), and it replaces the existing tests with new ones.

         # Don't give away our Dialgas.
         $gotta_catch_nearly_all->modify(
           Get => sub { 1 },
           Put => sub { return shift() ne "dialga" },
         );
