opts
is a command-line options parser written by Fushihara, Kan.
Getopt::Long is not bad but opts is very simple and feeling nice.
use opts; opts ( my $force => 'Bool', my $foobar => { isa => 'Str', default => 'baz' }, ); $force; $foobar;
Config::Pit
is a management module of configurations written by me.
This module provides get or set global configuration by easy way, mainly for public scripts which access web services with authentication.
use Config::Pit; ## If the fields are not set, open setting by $EDITOR automatically. my $config = pit_get("example.com", require => { "username" => "your username on example", "password" => "your password on example" }); ## And you can use $config->{username}, $config->{password} my $client = Example::API->new( username => $config->{username}, password => $config->{password} );
The first parameter of pit_get
is typically the domain of a web service, so configuration is set once and can be re-used by other scripts.
Script::State
is a useful hack for saving script states written by Motemen.
use Script::State; ## Define state variable script_state my $last_timestamp = 0; my $res = $ua->get('http://example.com/api/timeline.json?after=' . $last_timestamp); if ($res->is_success) { my $data = decode_json $res; for my $entry (@{ $data->{entries} }) { } ## Update state $last_timestamp = $data->{entries}->[0]->{timestamp}; } else { die $res->status_line; }
Script::State saves the state variable before the program exits, and restores it on next time.
