Regexp::Pattern::OS - Regexp patterns related to OS names and Perl's $^O

VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of Regexp::Pattern::OS (from Perl distribution Regexp-Pattern-OS), released on 2020-02-10.

SYNOPSIS

 use Regexp::Pattern; # exports re()
 my $re = re("OS::os_is_known");

This is basically a glue to Perl::osnames.

PATTERNS

  • os_is_known

    Check that operating system ($^O) is a known value.

    Examples:

     "linux" =~ re("OS::os_is_known");  # matches
    
     "MSWin32" =~ re("OS::os_is_known");  # matches
    
     "foo" =~ re("OS::os_is_known");  # doesn't match
  • os_is_posix

    Check that operating system ($^O) is (mostly) POSIX compatible.

    Examples:

     "linux" =~ re("OS::os_is_posix");  # matches
    
     "MSWin32" =~ re("OS::os_is_posix");  # doesn't match
  • os_is_unix

    Check that operating system ($^O) is a Unix.

    Examples:

     "linux" =~ re("OS::os_is_unix");  # matches
