# TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File - phpMan

## NAME
    [TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File] - Stream TAP from a text file.

## VERSION
    Version 3.43

## SYNOPSIS
      use [TAP::Parser::Source];
      use [TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File];

      my $source = [TAP::Parser::Source]->new->raw( \'file.tap' );
      $source->assemble_meta;

      my $class = '[TAP::Parser::SourceHandler::File]';
      my $vote  = $class->can_handle( $source );
      my $iter  = $class->make_iterator( $source );

## DESCRIPTION
    This is a *raw TAP stored in a file* [TAP::Parser::SourceHandler] - it has
    2 jobs:

    1. Figure out if the *raw* source it's given is a file containing raw
    TAP output. See [TAP::Parser::IteratorFactory] for more details.

    2. Takes raw TAP from the text file given, and converts into an
    iterator.

    Unless you're writing a plugin or subclassing [TAP::Parser], you probably
    won't need to use this module directly.

## METHODS
  Class Methods
   "can_handle"
      my $vote = $class->can_handle( $source );

    Only votes if $source looks like a regular file. Casts the following
    votes:

      0.9 if it's a .tap file
      0.9 if it has an extension matching any given in user config.

   "make_iterator"
      my $iterator = $class->make_iterator( $source );

    Returns a new [TAP::Parser::Iterator::Stream] for the source. "croak"s on
    error.

   "iterator_class"
    The class of iterator to use, override if you're sub-classing. Defaults
    to [TAP::Parser::Iterator::Stream].

## CONFIGURATION
      {
       extensions => [ @case_insensitive_exts_to_match ]
