Netlist::ModPort(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, this is Netlist::ModPort(3) from User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's giving Perl module realness. the star is Verilog::Netlist::ModPort — a ModPort within a Verilog Interface. periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bestie, here's the little use-case snack:

use Verilog::Netlist;

...
my $interface = $netlist->find_interface('name');
my $modport =  $interface->find_modport('name')

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so every modport under the interface gets its own Verilog::Netlist::ModPort object, and Verilog::Netlist::Interface is the one making it. no cap. 💖

💖 METHODS 💖

also, check Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods. iykyk.

🎀 $self->comment

returns any comments that follow the definition. but heads up: keep_comments=>1 must be passed to Verilog::Netlist::new for comments to be retained. yes, fr fr.

bestie, that keep_comments=>1 flag is the whole vibe for keeping comments.

💀 $self->dump

prints debugging information for this modport. lowkey useful when you're snooping. 👀

$self->find_port(name)

returns Verilog::Netlist::Net matching the given name. slay.

$self->find_port_by_index

returns the port name associated with the given index. cute.

$self->module

returns Verilog::Netlist::Interface — the interface this ModPort belongs to.

$self->lint

checks the modport for errors. self-care for your netlist, honestly.

$self->name

the name of the modport. iconic.

$self->netlist

reference to the Verilog::Netlist the modport is under.

$self->nets

returns a list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Net in the interface.

$self->nets_sorted

returns a list of name sorted references to Verilog::Netlist::Net in the interface.

$self->nets_and_ports_sorted

returns a list of name sorted references to Verilog::Netlist::Net and Verilog::Netlist::Port in the modport. both? yes bestie, both. 🫶

$self->ports

returns a list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the modport.

$self->ports_ordered

returns a list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the modport, sorted by pin number.

$self->ports_sorted

returns a list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the modport, sorted by name.

$self->verilog_text

returns verilog code which represents this modport. it comes back as an array that must be joined together to form the final text string. also important: the netlist must be already ->link'ed for this to work correctly. no cap. 🔥
