NAME
Perinci::CmdLine::Gen - Generate Perinci::CmdLine CLI script
VERSION
This document describes version 0.502 of Perinci::CmdLine::Gen (from
Perl distribution Perinci-CmdLine-Gen), released on 2022-10-19.
FUNCTIONS
gen_pericmd_script
Usage:
gen_pericmd_script(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]
Generate Perinci::CmdLine CLI script.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* allow_prereq => *array[perl::modname]*
Allow script to depend on these modules.
Sometimes, as in the case of using "Perinci::CmdLine::Inline",
dependency to some modules (e.g. non-core XS modules) are prohibited
because the goal is to have a free-standing script. This option
allows whitelisting some extra modules.
If you use "Perinci::CmdLine::Inline", this option will be passed to
it.
* allow_unknown_opts => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* cmdline => *perl::modname* (default: "Perinci::CmdLine::Any")
Specify module to use.
* code_after_end => *str*
(No description)
* code_before_instantiate_cmdline => *str*
(No description)
* config_dirs => *array[str]*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* config_filename => *str|hash|array[str|hash]*

constructor.

(No description)
* default_subcommand => *str*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* env_name => *str*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* exclude_package_functions_match => *re*
Exclude package functions matching this pattern.
* extra_urls_for_version => *array[str]*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* include_package_functions_match => *re*
Only include package functions matching this pattern.
* interpreter_path => *str*
What to put on shebang line.
* load_module => *array[perl::modname]*
Load extra modules.
* log => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* output_file => *filename* (default: "-")
Path to output file.
* overwrite => *bool* (default: 0)
Whether to overwrite output if previously exists.
* pack_deps => *bool*
Whether to pack dependencies in Perinci::CmdLine::Inline script.
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine's "gen_inline_pericmd_script"'s
"pack_deps" option.
* pass_cmdline_object => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
Currently irrelevant when generating with Perinci::CmdLine::Inline.
* per_arg_json => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* per_arg_yaml => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* pod => *bool* (default: 1)
Whether to generate POD or not.
Currently only Perinci::CmdLine::Inline generates POD.
* prefer_lite => *bool* (default: 1)
Prefer Perinci::CmdLine::Lite backend.
* read_config => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* read_env => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* script_name => *str*
(No description)
* script_summary => *str*
(No description)
* script_version => *str*
Use this for version number instead.
* skip_format => *bool*
Assume that function returns raw text which needs no formatting.
* ssl_verify_hostname => *bool* (default: 1)
If set to 0, will add: $ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0;' to
code.
* subcommands => *hash*
Hash of subcommand entries, where each entry is "url[:summary]".
An optional summary can follow the URL, e.g.:
URL[:SUMMARY]
Example (on CLI):
--subcommand add=/My/App/add_item --subcommand bin='/My/App/bin_item:Delete an item'
* subcommands_from_package_functions => *bool*
Form subcommands from functions under package's URL.
This is an alternative to the "subcommands" option. Instead of
specifying each subcommand's name and URL, you can also specify that
subcommand names are from functions under the package URL in "url".
So for example if "url" is "/My/App/", hen all functions under
"/My/App" are listed first. If the functions are:
foo
bar
baz_qux
then the subcommands become:
foo => /My/App/foo
bar => /My/App/bar
"baz-qux" => /My/App/baz_qux
* url* => *riap::url*
URL to function (or package, if you have subcommands).
* use_cleanser => *bool*
Whether to use data cleansing before outputting to JSON.
* use_utf8 => *bool*
Whether to set utf8 flag on output, will be passed to
Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
* validate_args => *bool*
Will be passed to Perinci::CmdLine constructor.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something
like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual
result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error
response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is
called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional
metadata.
Return value: (any)
gen_perinci_cmdline_script

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR,
Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps
required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
