=head1 NAME

perlunicook - cookbookish examples of handling Unicode in Perl

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This manpage contains short recipes demonstrating how to handle common Unicode
operations in Perl, plus one complete program at the end. Any undeclared
variables in individual recipes are assumed to have a previous appropriate
value in them.

=head1 EXAMPLES

=head2 ℞ 0: Standard preamble

Unless otherwise notes, all examples below require this standard preamble
to work correctly, with the C<#!> adjusted to work on your system:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use utf8;      # so literals and identifiers can be in UTF-8
 use v5.12;     # or later to get "unicode_strings" feature
 use strict;    # quote strings, declare variables
 use warnings;  # on by default
 use warnings  qw(FATAL utf8);    # fatalize encoding glitches
 use open      qw(:std :encoding(UTF-8)); # undeclared streams in UTF-8
 use charnames qw(:full :short);  # unneeded in v5.16

This I<does> make even Unix programmers C<binmode> your binary streams,
or open them with C<:raw>, but that's the only way to get at them
portably anyway.

B<WARNING>: C<use autodie> (pre 2.26) and C<use open> do not get along with each
other.

=head2 ℞ 1: Generic Unicode-savvy filter

Always decompose on the way in, then recompose on the way out.

use Unicode::Normalize;

while (<>) {
     $_ = NFD($_);   # decompose + reorder canonically
     ...
 } continue {
     print NFC($_);  # recompose (where possible) + reorder canonically
 }

=head2 ℞ 2: Fine-tuning Unicode warnings

As of v5.14, Perl distinguishes three subclasses of UTF‑8 warnings.

use v5.14;                  # subwarnings unavailable any earlier
 no warnings "nonchar";      # the 66 forbidden non-characters
 no warnings "surrogate";    # UTF-16/CESU-8 nonsense
 no warnings "non_unicode";  # for codepoints over 0x10_FFFF

=head2 ℞ 3: Declare source in utf8 for identifiers and literals

Without the all-critical C<use utf8> declaration, putting UTF‑8 in your
literals and identifiers won’t work right.  If you used the standard
preamble just given above, this already happened.  If you did, you can
do things like this:

use utf8;

my $measure   = "Ångström";
 my @μsoft     = qw( cp852 cp1251 cp1252 );
 my @ὑπέρμεγας = qw( ὑπέρ  μεγας );
 my @鯉        = qw( koi8-f koi8-u koi8-r );
 my $motto     = "👪 💗 🐪"; # FAMILY, GROWING HEART, DROMEDARY CAMEL

If you forget C<use utf8>, high bytes will be misunderstood as
separate characters, and nothing will work right.

=head2 ℞ 4: Characters and their numbers

The C<ord> and C<chr> functions work transparently on all codepoints,
not just on ASCII alone — nor in fact, not even just on Unicode alone.

# ASCII characters
 ord("A")
 chr(65)

# characters from the Basic Multilingual Plane
 ord("Σ")
 chr(0x3A3)

# beyond the BMP
 ord("𝑛")               # MATHEMATICAL ITALIC SMALL N
 chr(0x1D45B)

# beyond Unicode! (up to MAXINT)
 ord("\x{20_0000}")
 chr(0x20_0000)

=head2 ℞ 5: Unicode literals by character number

In an interpolated literal, whether a double-quoted string or a
regex, you may specify a character by its number using the
C<\x{I<HHHHHH>}> escape.

String: "\x{3a3}"
 Regex:  /\x{3a3}/

String: "\x{1d45b}"
 Regex:  /\x{1d45b}/

# even non-BMP ranges in regex work fine
 /[\x{1D434}-\x{1D467}]/

=head2 ℞ 6: Get character name by number

use charnames ();
 my $name = charnames::viacode(0x03A3);

=head2 ℞ 7: Get character number by name

use charnames ();
 my $number = charnames::vianame("GREEK CAPITAL LETTER SIGMA");

=head2 ℞ 8: Unicode named characters

Use the C<< \N{I<charname>} >> notation to get the character
by that name for use in interpolated literals (double-quoted
strings and regexes).  In v5.16, there is an implicit

use charnames qw(:full :short);

But prior to v5.16, you must be explicit about which set of charnames you
want.  The C<:full> names are the official Unicode character name, alias, or
sequence, which all share a namespace.

use charnames qw(:full :short latin greek);

"\N{MATHEMATICAL ITALIC SMALL N}"      # :full
 "\N{GREEK CAPITAL LETTER SIGMA}"       # :full

Anything else is a Perl-specific convenience abbreviation.  Specify one or
more scripts by names if you want short names that are script-specific.

"\N{Greek:Sigma}"                      # :short
 "\N{ae}"                               #  latin
 "\N{epsilon}"                          #  greek

The v5.16 release also supports a C<:loose> import for loose matching of
character names, which works just like loose matching of property names:
that is, it disregards case, whitespace, and underscores:

"\N{euro sign}"                        # :loose (from v5.16)

=head2 ℞ 9: Unicode named sequences

These look just like character names but return multiple codepoints.
Notice the C<%vx> vector-print functionality in C<printf>.

use charnames qw(:full);
 my $seq = "\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH MACRON AND GRAVE}";
 printf "U+%v04X\n", $seq;
 U+0100.0300

=head2 ℞ 10: Custom named characters

Use C<:alias> to give your own lexically scoped nicknames to existing
characters, or even to give unnamed private-use characters useful names.

use charnames ":full", ":alias" => {
     ecute => "LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE",
     "APPLE LOGO" => 0xF8FF, # private use character
 };

"\N{ecute}"
 "\N{APPLE LOGO}"

=head2 ℞ 11: Names of CJK codepoints

Sinograms like “東京” come back with character names of
C<CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-6771> and C<CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-4EAC>,
because their “names” vary.  The CPAN C<Unicode::Unihan> module
has a large database for decoding these (and a whole lot more), provided you
know how to understand its output.

# cpan -i Unicode::Unihan
 use Unicode::Unihan;
 my $str = "東京";
 my $unhan = Unicode::Unihan->new;
 for my $lang (qw(Mandarin Cantonese Korean JapaneseOn JapaneseKun)) {
     printf "CJK $str in %-12s is ", $lang;
     say $unhan->$lang($str);
 }

prints:

CJK 東京 in Mandarin     is DONG1JING1
 CJK 東京 in Cantonese    is dung1ging1
 CJK 東京 in Korean       is TONGKYENG
 CJK 東京 in JapaneseOn   is TOUKYOU KEI KIN
 CJK 東京 in JapaneseKun  is HIGASHI AZUMAMIYAKO

If you have a specific romanization scheme in mind,
use the specific module:

# cpan -i Lingua::JA::Romanize::Japanese
 use Lingua::JA::Romanize::Japanese;
 my $k2r = Lingua::JA::Romanize::Japanese->new;
 my $str = "東京";
 say "Japanese for $str is ", $k2r->chars($str);

prints

Japanese for 東京 is toukyou

=head2 ℞ 12: Explicit encode/decode

On rare occasion, such as a database read, you may be
given encoded text you need to decode.

use Encode qw(encode decode);

my $chars = decode("shiftjis", $bytes, 1);
 # OR
  my $bytes = encode("MIME-Header-ISO_2022_JP", $chars, 1);

For streams all in the same encoding, don't use encode/decode; instead
set the file encoding when you open the file or immediately after with
C<binmode> as described later below.

=head2 ℞ 13: Decode program arguments as utf8

$ perl -CA ...
 or
     $ export PERL_UNICODE=A
 or
    use Encode qw(decode);
    @ARGV = map { decode('UTF-8', $_, 1) } @ARGV;

=head2 ℞ 14: Decode program arguments as locale encoding

# cpan -i Encode::Locale
    use Encode qw(locale);
    use Encode::Locale;

# use "locale" as an arg to encode/decode
    @ARGV = map { decode(locale => $_, 1) } @ARGV;

=head2 ℞ 15: Declare STD{IN,OUT,ERR} to be utf8

Use a command-line option, an environment variable, or else
call C<binmode> explicitly:

$ perl -CS ...
 or
     $ export PERL_UNICODE=S
 or
     use open qw(:std :encoding(UTF-8));
 or
     binmode(STDIN,  ":encoding(UTF-8)");
     binmode(STDOUT, ":utf8");
     binmode(STDERR, ":utf8");

=head2 ℞ 16: Declare STD{IN,OUT,ERR} to be in locale encoding

# cpan -i Encode::Locale
    use Encode;
    use Encode::Locale;

# or as a stream for binmode or open
    binmode STDIN,  ":encoding(console_in)"  if -t STDIN;
    binmode STDOUT, ":encoding(console_out)" if -t STDOUT;
    binmode STDERR, ":encoding(console_out)" if -t STDERR;

=head2 ℞ 17: Make file I/O default to utf8

Files opened without an encoding argument will be in UTF-8:

$ perl -CD ...
 or
     $ export PERL_UNICODE=D
 or
     use open qw(:encoding(UTF-8));

=head2 ℞ 18: Make all I/O and args default to utf8

$ perl -CSDA ...
 or
     $ export PERL_UNICODE=SDA
 or
     use open qw(:std :encoding(UTF-8));
     use Encode qw(decode);
     @ARGV = map { decode('UTF-8', $_, 1) } @ARGV;

=head2 ℞ 19: Open file with specific encoding

Specify stream encoding.  This is the normal way
to deal with encoded text, not by calling low-level
functions.

# input file
     open(my $in_file, "< :encoding(UTF-16)", "wintext");
 OR
     open(my $in_file, "<", "wintext");
     binmode($in_file, ":encoding(UTF-16)");
 THEN
     my $line = <$in_file>;

# output file
     open($out_file, "> :encoding(cp1252)", "wintext");
 OR
     open(my $out_file, ">", "wintext");
     binmode($out_file, ":encoding(cp1252)");
 THEN
     print $out_file "some text\n";

More layers than just the encoding can be specified here. For example,
the incantation C<":raw :encoding(UTF-16LE) :crlf"> includes implicit
CRLF handling.

=head2 ℞ 20: Unicode casing

Unicode casing is very different from ASCII casing.

uc("henry ⅷ")  # "HENRY Ⅷ"
 uc("tschüß")   # "TSCHÜSS"  notice ß => SS

# both are true:
 "tschüß"  =~ /TSCHÜSS/i   # notice ß => SS
 "Σίσυφος" =~ /ΣΊΣΥΦΟΣ/i   # notice Σ,σ,ς sameness

=head2 ℞ 21: Unicode case-insensitive comparisons

Also available in the CPAN L<Unicode::CaseFold> module,
the new C<fc> “foldcase” function from v5.16 grants
access to the same Unicode casefolding as the C</i>
pattern modifier has always used:

use feature "fc"; # fc() function is from v5.16

# sort case-insensitively
 my @sorted = sort { fc($a) cmp fc($b) } @list;

# both are true:
 fc("tschüß")  eq fc("TSCHÜSS")
 fc("Σίσυφος") eq fc("ΣΊΣΥΦΟΣ")

=head2 ℞ 22: Match Unicode linebreak sequence in regex

A Unicode linebreak matches the two-character CRLF
grapheme or any of seven vertical whitespace characters.
Good for dealing with textfiles coming from different
operating systems.

s/\R/\n/g;  # normalize all linebreaks to \n

=head2 ℞ 23: Get character category

Find the general category of a numeric codepoint.

use Unicode::UCD qw(charinfo);
 my $cat = charinfo(0x3A3)->{category};  # "Lu"

=head2 ℞ 24: Disabling Unicode-awareness in builtin charclasses

Disable C<\w>, C<\b>, C<\s>, C<\d>, and the POSIX
classes from working correctly on Unicode either in this
scope, or in just one regex.

use v5.14;
 use re "/a";

# OR

my($num) = $str =~ /(\d+)/a;

Or use specific un-Unicode properties, like C<\p{ahex}>
and C<\p{POSIX_Digit>}.  Properties still work normally
no matter what charset modifiers (C</d /u /l /a /aa>)
should be effect.

=head2 ℞ 25: Match Unicode properties in regex with \p, \P

These all match a single codepoint with the given
property.  Use C<\P> in place of C<\p> to match
one codepoint lacking that property.

\pL, \pN, \pS, \pP, \pM, \pZ, \pC
 \p{Sk}, \p{Ps}, \p{Lt}
 \p{alpha}, \p{upper}, \p{lower}
 \p{Latin}, \p{Greek}
 \p{script_extensions=Latin}, \p{scx=Greek}
 \p{East_Asian_Width=Wide}, \p{EA=W}
 \p{Line_Break=Hyphen}, \p{LB=HY}
 \p{Numeric_Value=4}, \p{NV=4}

=head2 ℞ 26: Custom character properties

Define at compile-time your own custom character
properties for use in regexes.

# using private-use characters
 sub In_Tengwar { "E000\tE07F\n" }

if (/\p{In_Tengwar}/) { ... }

# blending existing properties
 sub Is_GraecoRoman_Title {<<'END_OF_SET'}
 +utf8::IsLatin
 +utf8::IsGreek
 &utf8::IsTitle
 END_OF_SET

if (/\p{Is_GraecoRoman_Title}/ { ... }

=head2 ℞ 27: Unicode normalization

Typically render into NFD on input and NFC on output. Using NFKC or NFKD
functions improves recall on searches, assuming you've already done to the
same text to be searched. Note that this is about much more than just pre-
combined compatibility glyphs; it also reorders marks according to their
canonical combining classes and weeds out singletons.

use Unicode::Normalize;
 my $nfd  = NFD($orig);
 my $nfc  = NFC($orig);
 my $nfkd = NFKD($orig);
 my $nfkc = NFKC($orig);

=head2 ℞ 28: Convert non-ASCII Unicode numerics

Unless you’ve used C</a> or C</aa>, C<\d> matches more than
ASCII digits only, but Perl’s implicit string-to-number
conversion does not current recognize these.  Here’s how to
convert such strings manually.

use v5.14;  # needed for num() function
 use Unicode::UCD qw(num);
 my $str = "got Ⅻ and ४५६७ and ⅞ and here";
 my @nums = ();
 while ($str =~ /(\d+|\N)/g) {  # not just ASCII!
    push @nums, num($1);
 }
 say "@nums";   #     12      4567      0.875

use charnames qw(:full);
 my $nv = num("\N{RUMI DIGIT ONE}\N{RUMI DIGIT TWO}");

=head2 ℞ 29: Match Unicode grapheme cluster in regex

Programmer-visible “characters” are codepoints matched by C</./s>,
but user-visible “characters” are graphemes matched by C</\X/>.

# Find vowel *plus* any combining diacritics,underlining,etc.
 my $nfd = NFD($orig);
 $nfd =~ / (?=[aeiou]) \X /xi

=head2 ℞ 30: Extract by grapheme instead of by codepoint (regex)

# match and grab five first graphemes
 my($first_five) = $str =~ /^ ( \X{5} ) /x;

=head2 ℞ 31: Extract by grapheme instead of by codepoint (substr)

# cpan -i Unicode::GCString
 use Unicode::GCString;
 my $gcs = Unicode::GCString->new($str);
 my $first_five = $gcs->substr(0, 5);

=head2 ℞ 32: Reverse string by grapheme

Reversing by codepoint messes up diacritics, mistakenly converting
C<crème brûlée> into C<éel̂urb em̀erc> instead of into C<eélûrb emèrc>;
so reverse by grapheme instead.  Both these approaches work
right no matter what normalization the string is in:

$str = join("", reverse $str =~ /\X/g);

# OR: cpan -i Unicode::GCString
 use Unicode::GCString;
 $str = reverse Unicode::GCString->new($str);

=head2 ℞ 33: String length in graphemes

The string C<brûlée> has six graphemes but up to eight codepoints.
This counts by grapheme, not by codepoint:

my $str = "brûlée";
 my $count = 0;
 while ($str =~ /\X/g) { $count++ }

# OR: cpan -i Unicode::GCString
 use Unicode::GCString;
 my $gcs = Unicode::GCString->new($str);
 my $count = $gcs->length;

=head2 ℞ 34: Unicode column-width for printing

Perl’s C<printf>, C<sprintf>, and C<format> think all
codepoints take up 1 print column, but many take 0 or 2.
Here to show that normalization makes no difference,
we print out both forms:

use Unicode::GCString;
 use Unicode::Normalize;

my @words = qw/crème brûlée/;
 @words = map { NFC($_), NFD($_) } @words;

for my $str (@words) {
     my $gcs = Unicode::GCString->new($str);
     my $cols = $gcs->columns;
     my $pad = " " x (10 - $cols);
     say str, $pad, " |";
 }

generates this to show that it pads correctly no matter
the normalization:

crème      |
 crème      |
 brûlée     |
 brûlée     |

=head2 ℞ 35: Unicode collation

Text sorted by numeric codepoint follows no reasonable alphabetic order;
use the UCA for sorting text.

use Unicode::Collate;
 my $col = Unicode::Collate->new();
 my @list = $col->sort(@old_list);

See the I<ucsort> program from the L<Unicode::Tussle> CPAN module
for a convenient command-line interface to this module.

=head2 ℞ 36: Case- I<and> accent-insensitive Unicode sort

Specify a collation strength of level 1 to ignore case and
diacritics, only looking at the basic character.

use Unicode::Collate;
 my $col = Unicode::Collate->new(level => 1);
 my @list = $col->sort(@old_list);

=head2 ℞ 37: Unicode locale collation

Some locales have special sorting rules.

# either use v5.12, OR: cpan -i Unicode::Collate::Locale
 use Unicode::Collate::Locale;
 my $col = Unicode::Collate::Locale->new(locale => "de__phonebook");
 my @list = $col->sort(@old_list);

The I<ucsort> program mentioned above accepts a C<--locale> parameter.

=head2 ℞ 38: Making C<cmp> work on text instead of codepoints

Instead of this:

@srecs = sort {
     $b->{AGE}   <=>  $a->{AGE}
                 ||
     $a->{NAME}  cmp  $b->{NAME}
 } @recs;

Use this:

my $coll = Unicode::Collate->new();
 for my $rec (@recs) {
     $rec->{NAME_key} = $coll->getSortKey( $rec->{NAME} );
 }
 @srecs = sort {
     $b->{AGE}       <=>  $a->{AGE}
                     ||
     $a->{NAME_key}  cmp  $b->{NAME_key}
 } @recs;

=head2 ℞ 39: Case- I<and> accent-insensitive comparisons

Use a collator object to compare Unicode text by character
instead of by codepoint.

use Unicode::Collate;
 my $es = Unicode::Collate->new(
     level => 1,
     normalization => undef
 );

# now both are true:
 $es->eq("García",  "GARCIA" );
 $es->eq("Márquez", "MARQUEZ");

=head2 ℞ 40: Case- I<and> accent-insensitive locale comparisons

Same, but in a specific locale.

my $de = Unicode::Collate::Locale->new(
            locale => "de__phonebook",
          );

# now this is true:
 $de->eq("tschüß", "TSCHUESS");  # notice ü => UE, ß => SS

=head2 ℞ 41: Unicode linebreaking

Break up text into lines according to Unicode rules.

# cpan -i Unicode::LineBreak
 use Unicode::LineBreak;
 use charnames qw(:full);

my $para = "This is a super\N{HYPHEN}long string. " x 20;
 my $fmt = Unicode::LineBreak->new;
 print $fmt->break($para), "\n";

=head2 ℞ 42: Unicode text in DBM hashes, the tedious way

Using a regular Perl string as a key or value for a DBM
hash will trigger a wide character exception if any codepoints
won’t fit into a byte.  Here’s how to manually manage the translation:

use DB_File;
    use Encode qw(encode decode);
    tie %dbhash, "DB_File", "pathname";

# STORE

# assume $uni_key and $uni_value are abstract Unicode strings
    my $enc_key   = encode("UTF-8", $uni_key, 1);
    my $enc_value = encode("UTF-8", $uni_value, 1);
    $dbhash{$enc_key} = $enc_value;

# FETCH

# assume $uni_key holds a normal Perl string (abstract Unicode)
    my $enc_key   = encode("UTF-8", $uni_key, 1);
    my $enc_value = $dbhash{$enc_key};
    my $uni_value = decode("UTF-8", $enc_value, 1);

=head2 ℞ 43: Unicode text in DBM hashes, the easy way

Here’s how to implicitly manage the translation; all encoding
and decoding is done automatically, just as with streams that
have a particular encoding attached to them:

use DB_File;
    use DBM_Filter;

my $dbobj = tie %dbhash, "DB_File", "pathname";
    $dbobj->Filter_Value("utf8");  # this is the magic bit

# STORE

# assume $uni_key and $uni_value are abstract Unicode strings
    $dbhash{$uni_key} = $uni_value;

# FETCH

# $uni_key holds a normal Perl string (abstract Unicode)
    my $uni_value = $dbhash{$uni_key};

=head2 ℞ 44: PROGRAM: Demo of Unicode collation and printing

Here’s a full program showing how to make use of locale-sensitive
sorting, Unicode casing, and managing print widths when some of the
characters take up zero or two columns, not just one column each time.
When run, the following program produces this nicely aligned output:

Crème Brûlée....... €2.00
    Éclair............. €1.60
    Fideuà............. €4.20
    Hamburger.......... €6.00
    Jamón Serrano...... €4.45

=head1 SEE ALSO

See these manpages, some of which are CPAN modules:
L<perlunicode>, L<perluniprops>,
L<perlre>, L<perlrecharclass>,
L<perluniintro>, L<perlunitut>, L<perlunifaq>,
L<PerlIO>, L<DB_File>, L<DBM_Filter>, L<DBM_Filter::utf8>,
L<Encode>, L<Encode::Locale>,
L<Unicode::UCD>,
L<Unicode::Normalize>,
L<Unicode::GCString>, L<Unicode::LineBreak>,
L<Unicode::Collate>, L<Unicode::Collate::Locale>,
L<Unicode::Unihan>,
L<Unicode::CaseFold>,
L<Unicode::Tussle>,
L<Lingua::JA::Romanize::Japanese>,
L<Lingua::ZH::Romanize::Pinyin>,
L<Lingua::KO::Romanize::Hangul>.

The L<Unicode::Tussle> CPAN module includes many programs
to help with working with Unicode, including
these programs to fully or partly replace standard utilities:
I<tcgrep> instead of I<egrep>,
I<uniquote> instead of I<cat -v> or I<hexdump>,
I<uniwc> instead of I<wc>,
I<unilook> instead of I<look>,
I<unifmt> instead of I<fmt>,
and
I<ucsort> instead of I<sort>.
For exploring Unicode character names and character properties,
see its I<uniprops>, I<unichars>, and I<uninames> programs.
It also supplies these programs, all of which are general filters that do Unicode-y things:
I<unititle> and I<unicaps>;
I<uniwide> and I<uninarrow>;
I<unisupers> and I<unisubs>;
I<nfd>, I<nfc>, I<nfkd>, and I<nfkc>;
and I<uc>, I<lc>, and I<tc>.

Finally, see the published Unicode Standard (page numbers are from version
6.0.0), including these specific annexes and technical reports:
