NAME
       Pegex::Input - Pegex Parser Input Abstraction

SYNOPSIS
           use Pegex;
           use Pegex::Input;
           my $ast = pegex($foo_grammar)->parse(Pegex::Input->new(string => $foo_input));

DESCRIPTION
       Pegex::Parser parses input. The input can be a string, a string
       reference, a file path, or an open file handle. Pegex::Input is an
       abstraction over any type of input. It provides a uniform interface to
       the parser.

USAGE
       You call new() with two arguments, where the first argument is the
       input type:

           Pegex::Input->new(file => 'file.txt')

       The following input types are available:

       string
           Input is a string.

       stringref
           Input is a string reference. This may be desirable for really long
           strings.

       file
           Input is a file path name to be opened and read.

       handle
           Input is from a opened file handle, to be read.
