.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
A \s-1TAP \s0\fIsource\fR is something that produces a stream of \s-1TAP\s0 for the parser to
consume, such as an executable file, a text file, an archive, an \s-1IO\s0 handle, a
database, etc.  \f(CW\*(C`TAP::Parser::Source\*(C'\fRs encapsulate these \fIraw\fR sources, and
provide some useful meta data about them.  They are used by
TAP::Parser::SourceHandlers, which do whatever is required to produce &
capture a stream of \s-1TAP\s0 from the \fIraw\fR source, and package it up in a
TAP::Parser::Iterator for the parser to consume.
.PP
Unless you're writing a new TAP::Parser::SourceHandler, a plugin or
subclassing TAP::Parser, you probably won't need to use this module directly.

.PP
Chaining getter/setter for the raw \s-1TAP\s0 source.  This is a reference, as it may
contain large amounts of data (eg: raw \s-1TAP\s0).
.PP

.PP
.Vb 2

.PP
Chaining getter/setter for meta data about the source.  This defaults to an
empty hashref.  See \*(L"assemble_meta\*(R" for more info.
.PP
\fI\f(CI\*(C`has_meta\*(C'\fI\fR

True if the source has meta data.

.PP
.Vb 2
\&  my $config = $source\->config;

.Ve
.PP
Chaining getter/setter for the source's configuration, if any has been provided
by the user.  How it's used is up to you.  This defaults to an empty hashref.
See \*(L"config_for\*(R" for more info.

Chaining getter/setter for the flag that dictates whether \s-1STDOUT\s0 and \s-1STDERR\s0
should be merged (where appropriate).  Defaults to undef.

Gathers meta data about the \*(L"raw\*(R" source, stashes it in \*(L"meta\*(R" and returns
it as a hashref.  This is done so that the TAP::Parser::SourceHandlers don't
have to repeat common checks.  Currently this includes:
