MooseX::App::Meta::Role::Class::Base(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MooseX::App::Meta::Role::Class::Base(3pm)

NAME

MooseX::App::Meta::Role::Class::Base - Meta class role for application base class

DESCRIPTION

This meta class role will automatically be applied to the application base class. This documentation is only of interest if you intend to write plugins for MooseX-App.

ACCESSORS

app_messageclass

Message class for generating error messages. Defaults to MooseX::App::Message::Block. The default can be overwritten by altering the "_build_app_messageclass" method. Defaults to MooseX::App::Message::Block

app_namespace

Usually MooseX::App will take the package name of the base class as the namespace for commands. This namespace can be changed.

app_exclude

Exclude namespaces included in app_namespace

app_base

Usually MooseX::App will take the name of the calling wrapper script to construct the program name in various help messages. This name can be changed via the app_base accessor. Defaults to the base name of $0

app_fuzzy

Boolean flag that controls if command names and attributes should be matched exactly or fuzzy. Defaults to true.

app_command_name

Coderef attribute that controls how package names are translated to command names and attributes. Defaults to &MooseX::App::Utils::class_to_command

app_commands

Hashref with command to command class map.

app_strict

Boolean flag that controls if an application with superfluous/unknown positional parameters should terminate with an error message or not. If disabled all extra parameters will be copied to the extra_argv command class attribute.

app_prefer_commandline

By default, arguments passed to new_with_command and new_with_options have a higher priority than the command line options. This boolean flag will give the command line an higher priority.

app_permute

Boolean flag that controls if command line arguments that take multiple values (ie ArrayRef or HashRef type constraints) can be permuted.

METHODS

Returns a command class for the given command moniker

command_class_to_command

 my $command_moniker = $meta->command_class_to_command($command_class);

Returns the command moniker for the given command class.

command_message

 my $message = $meta->command_message(

    type    => 'error',
    body    => $message
 );

Generates a message object (using the class from app_messageclass)

command_usage_attributes

 my @attributes = $meta->command_usage_attributes($metaclass);

Returns a list of attributes/command options for the given meta class.

command_usage_command

 my @messages = $meta->command_usage_command($command_metaclass);

Returns a list of messages containing the documentation for a given command meta class.

command_usage_description

 my $message = $meta->command_usage_description($command_metaclass);

Returns a messages with the basic command description.

command_usage_global

 my @messages = $meta->command_usage_global();

Returns a list of messages containing the documentation for the application.

command_usage_header
