=head1 NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitInterpolationOfLiterals - Always use single quotes for literal strings.


=head1 AFFILIATION

This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic|Perl::Critic>
distribution.


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Don't use double-quotes or C<qq//> if your string doesn't require
interpolation.  This saves the interpreter a bit of work and it lets
the reader know that you really did intend the string to be literal.

    print "foobar";     #not ok
    print 'foobar';     #ok
    print qq/foobar/;   #not ok
    print q/foobar/;    #ok

    print "$foobar";    #ok
    print "foobar\n";   #ok
    print qq/$foobar/;  #ok
    print qq/foobar\n/; #ok

    print qq{$foobar};  #preferred
    print qq{foobar\n}; #preferred

Use of double-quotes might be reasonable if the string contains single
quote (') characters:

    print "it's me";    # ok, if configuration flag set


=head1 CONFIGURATION

The types of quoting styles to exempt from this policy can be
configured via the C<allow> option.  This must be a
whitespace-delimited combination of some or all of the following
styles: C<qq{}>, C<qq()>, C<qq[]>, and C<qq//>.

This is useful because some folks have configured their editor to
apply special syntax highlighting within certain styles of quotes.
For example, you can tweak C<vim> to use SQL highlighting for
everything that appears within C<qq{}> or C<qq[]> quotes.  But if
those strings are literal, Perl::Critic will complain.  To prevent
this, put the following in your F<.perlcriticrc> file:

    [ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitInterpolationOfLiterals]
    allow = qq{} qq[]

The flag C<allow_if_string_contains_single_quote> permits
double-quoted strings if the string contains a single quote (')
character.  It defaults to off; to turn it on put the following in
your F<.perlcriticrc> file:

    [ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitInterpolationOfLiterals]
    allow_if_string_contains_single_quote = 1
