FUNCTIONS

check_compressed_filename

Usage:

            

              
              
check_compressed_filename(%args) -> bool|hash
            
          

Check whether filename indicates being compressed.

Examples:

• Example #1:

  
              
  
                
                
  check_compressed_filename(filename => "foo.bar"); # -> 0
              
            

• Example #2:

  
              
  
                
                
  check_compressed_filename(filename => "baz.xz");
              
            

  Result:

  
              
  
                
                
  {
    compressor_name       => "XZ",
    compressor_suffix     => ".xz",
    uncompressed_filename => "baz",
  }
              
            

• Example #3:

  
              
  
                
                
  check_compressed_filename(filename => "qux.Bz2");
              
            

  Result:

  
              
  
                
                
  {
    compressor_name       => "Bzip2",
    compressor_suffix     => ".Bz2",
    uncompressed_filename => "qux",
  }
              
            

This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

• filename* => str

  (No description)

• ignore_case => bool (default: 1)

  Whether to match case-insensitively.

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.
