=head1 NAME
Encode::Guess -- Guesses encoding from data
=head1 SYNOPSIS
# if you are sure $data won't contain anything bogus
use Encode;
use Encode::Guess qw/euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis/;
my $utf8 = decode("Guess", $data);
my $data = encode("Guess", $utf8); # this doesn't work!
# more elaborate way
use Encode::Guess;
my $enc = guess_encoding($data, qw/euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis/);
ref($enc) or die "Can't guess: $enc"; # trap error this way
$utf8 = $enc->decode($data);
# or
$utf8 = decode($enc->name, $data)
=head1 ABSTRACT
Encode::Guess enables you to guess in what encoding a given data is
encoded, or at least tries to.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
By default, it checks only ascii, utf8 and UTF-16/32 with BOM.
use Encode::Guess; # ascii/utf8/BOMed UTF
To use it more practically, you have to give the names of encodings to
check (I<suspects> as follows). The name of suspects can either be
canonical names or aliases.
CAVEAT: Unlike UTF-(16|32), BOM in utf8 is NOT AUTOMATICALLY STRIPPED.
# tries all major Japanese Encodings as well
use Encode::Guess qw/euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis/;
If the C<$Encode::Guess::NoUTFAutoGuess> variable is set to a true
value, no heuristics will be applied to UTF8/16/32, and the result
will be limited to the suspects and C<ascii>.
=over 4
=item Encode::Guess->set_suspects
You can also change the internal suspects list via C<set_suspects>
method.
use Encode::Guess;
Encode::Guess->set_suspects(qw/euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis/);
=item Encode::Guess->add_suspects
Or you can use C<add_suspects> method. The difference is that
C<set_suspects> flushes the current suspects list while
C<add_suspects> adds.
use Encode::Guess;
Encode::Guess->add_suspects(qw/euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis/);
# now the suspects are euc-jp,shiftjis,7bit-jis, AND
# euc-kr,euc-cn, and big5-eten
Encode::Guess->add_suspects(qw/euc-kr euc-cn big5-eten/);
=item Encode::decode("Guess" ...)
When you are content with suspects list, you can now
my $utf8 = Encode::decode("Guess", $data);
=item Encode::Guess->guess($data)
But it will croak if:
=over
=item *
Two or more suspects remain
=item *
No suspects left
=back
So you should instead try this;
my $decoder = Encode::Guess->guess($data);
On success, $decoder is an object that is documented in
L<Encode::Encoding>. So you can now do this;
my $utf8 = $decoder->decode($data);
On failure, $decoder now contains an error message so the whole thing
would be as follows;
my $decoder = Encode::Guess->guess($data);
die $decoder unless ref($decoder);
my $utf8 = $decoder->decode($data);
=item guess_encoding($data, [, I<list of suspects>])
You can also try C<guess_encoding> function which is exported by
default. It takes $data to check and it also takes the list of
suspects by option. The optional suspect list is I<not reflected> to
the internal suspects list.
my $decoder = guess_encoding($data, qw/euc-jp euc-kr euc-cn/);
die $decoder unless ref($decoder);
my $utf8 = $decoder->decode($data);
# check only ascii, utf8 and UTF-(16|32) with BOM
my $decoder = guess_encoding($data);
=back
=head1 CAVEATS
=over 4
=item *
Because of the algorithm used, ISO-8859 series and other single-byte
encodings do not work well unless either one of ISO-8859 is the only
one suspect (besides ascii and utf8).
use Encode::Guess;
# perhaps ok
my $decoder = guess_encoding($data, 'latin1');
# definitely NOT ok
my $decoder = guess_encoding($data, qw/latin1 greek/);
The reason is that Encode::Guess guesses encoding by trial and error.
It first splits $data into lines and tries to decode the line for each
suspect. It keeps it going until all but one encoding is eliminated
out of suspects list. ISO-8859 series is just too successful for most
cases (because it fills almost all code points in \x00-\xff).
=item *
Do not mix national standard encodings and the corresponding vendor
encodings.
# a very bad idea
my $decoder
= guess_encoding($data, qw/shiftjis MacJapanese cp932/);
The reason is that vendor encoding is usually a superset of national
standard so it becomes too ambiguous for most cases.
=item *
On the other hand, mixing various national standard encodings
automagically works unless $data is too short to allow for guessing.
# This is ok if $data is long enough
my $decoder =
guess_encoding($data, qw/euc-cn
euc-jp shiftjis 7bit-jis
euc-kr
big5-eten/);
=item *
DO NOT PUT TOO MANY SUSPECTS! Don't you try something like this!
my $decoder = guess_encoding($data,
Encode->encodings(":all"));
=back
It is, after all, just a guess. You should alway be explicit when it
comes to encodings. But there are some, especially Japanese,
environment that guess-coding is a must. Use this module with care.
=head1 TO DO
Encode::Guess does not work on EBCDIC platforms.
