NAME

rimetadb - Manage a Rinci metadata database

VERSION

This document describes version 0.222 of rimetadb (from Perl distribution App-rimetadb), released on 2019-08-14.

SYNOPSIS

Scan all local Perl modules in the MyCompany:: namespace, get all Rinci metadata and store them in the database (defaults to dbi:SQLite:dbname=$HOME/rimeta.db where $HOME is the user's home directory.

 % rimetadb update-from-modules MyCompany::

Ditto, except we specify custom database location (note that this is not recommended, you should put username/password in config file instead of command-line options):

 % rimetadb update-from-modules MyCompany:: \
     --dsn 'mysql:database=mycompany_rimeta' --user ... --password ...

Update a single package metadata:

 % rimetadb update --package MyCompany::Job \
     --metadata-json '{"v":1.1,"summary":"Manage jobs"}'

Update a single function metadata:

 % rimetadb update --package MyCompany::Job --function restart_job \
     --metadata-json '{"v":1.1,"summary":"Restart a job","args":{"id":{"summary":"Job ID","schema":"int*","req":1},"force":{"schema":"bool"}}}'

Delete a single package metadata:

 % rimetadb delete --package MyCompany::Job

Delete a single function metadata:

 % rimetadb delete --package MyCompany::Job --function restart_job

Show some statistics (will be expanded further later):

 % rimetadb stats

Lists packages in the database:

 % rimetadb packages
 % rimetadb packages -l
 % rimetadb packages MyCompany

Lists functions in the database:

 % rimetadb functions
 % rimetadb functions -l
 % rimetadb functions MyCompany

List function arguments in the database:

 % rimetadb arguments
 % rimetadb arguments -l

Get metadata of function/package:

 % rimetadb meta Foo::Bar::func

DESCRIPTION

SUBCOMMANDS

argument-stats

Show statistics on function arguments from the database.

arguments

List function arguments in the database.

delete

Delete a package or function metadata from the database.

function-stats

Show some statistics on functions from the database.

functions

List functions in the database.

meta

Get package/function metadata from the database.

packages

List packages in the database.

stats

Show some statistics from the database.

update

Add/update a package or function metadata in the database.

This routine lets you add/update a package or function metadata in the database with the specified metadata.

update-from-modules

Update Rinci metadata database from local Perl modules.

This routine scans Perl modules, load them, and update the database using Rinci metadata from each modules into the database.

For each package, function, or function argument metadata, you can put this attribute:

 'x.app.rimetadb.exclude' => 1,

to exclude the entity from being imported into the database. When you exclude a package, all its contents (currently functions) are also excluded.

OPTIONS

* marks required options.

Common options

--config-path=s, -c

Set path to configuration file.

--config-profile=s, -P

Set configuration profile to use.

--debug

Shortcut for --log-level=debug.

--dsn=s

DBI connection DSN.

If not specified, will default to `dbd:SQLite:$HOME/rimeta.db` where `$HOME` is user's home directory.

Note: has been tested with MySQL and SQLite only.

--format=s

Choose output format, e.g. json, text.

Default value:

 undef
--help, -h, -?

Display help message and exit.

--json

Set output format to json.

--log-level=s

Set log level.

--naked-res

When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.

Default value:

 0

By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:

    [200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]

The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:

    [1,2,3]
--no-config, -C

Do not use any configuration file.

--no-env

Do not read environment for default options.

--password=s

DBI connection password.

--quiet

Shortcut for --log-level=error.

--subcommands

List available subcommands.

--trace

Shortcut for --log-level=trace.

--user=s

DBI connection user.

--verbose

Shortcut for --log-level=info.

--version, -v

Display program's version and exit.

Options for subcommand arguments

--detail, -l
--function=s

Select specific function only.

--package=s

Select specific package only.

--query=s
--type=s

Select arguments with specific type only.

Options for subcommand delete

--function=s
--package=s*

Options for subcommand functions

--detail, -l
--package=s

Select specific package only.

--query=s

Options for subcommand meta

--name=s*

(Fully-qualified) function name or package name.

Options for subcommand packages

--detail, -l
--query=s

Options for subcommand update

--dist=s
--extra=s
--function=s
--metadata-json=s

See --metadata.

--metadata=s*
--package=s*

Options for subcommand update-from-modules

--exclude-json=s

Perl package names or prefixes to exclude (JSON-encoded).

See --exclude.

--exclude=s@

Perl package names or prefixes to exclude.

You can also use this attribute in your package metadata:

    'x.app.rimetadb.exclude' => 1,

to exclude the package (as well as its contents: all functions) from being imported into the database.

Can be specified multiple times.

--force-update, --force

Force update database even though module hasn't changed since last update.

--library=s, -I

Include library path, like Perl's -I.

Note that some modules are already loaded before this option takes effect. To make sure you use the right library, you can use `PERL5OPT` or explicitly use `perl` and use its `-I` option.

--module-or-package-json=s

Perl module or prefixes or package to add/update (JSON-encoded).

See --module-or-package.

--module-or-package=s@*

Perl module or prefixes or package to add/update.

For each entry, you can specify:

* a Perl module name e.g. `Foo::Bar`. An attempt will be made to load that module.

* a module prefix ending with `::` e.g. `Foo::Bar::`. `Module::List` will be used to list all modules under `Foo::Bar::` recursively and load all those modules.

* a package name using `+Foo::Bar` syntax. An attempt to load module with that name will *not* be made. This can be used to add an already-loaded package e.g. by another module).

* a package prefix using `+Foo::Bar::` or `+Foo::Bar::` syntax. Subpackages will be listed recursively (using <pm:Package::Util::Lite>'s `list_subpackages`).

Can be specified multiple times.

--no-delete
--require-json=s, -m

Require a Perl module, a la Perl's -m (JSON-encoded).

See --require.

--require=s@

Require a Perl module, a la Perl's -m.

Can be specified multiple times.

--use-json=s, -M

Use a Perl module, a la Perl's -M (JSON-encoded).

See --use.

--use=s@

Use a Perl module, a la Perl's -M.

Can be specified multiple times.

COMPLETION

This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.

bash

To activate bash completion for this script, put:

 complete -C rimetadb rimetadb

in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.

tcsh

To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:

 complete rimetadb 'p/*/`rimetadb`/'

in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).

other shells

For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.

CONFIGURATION FILE

This script can read configuration files. Configuration files are in the format of IOD, which is basically INI with some extra features.

By default, these names are searched for configuration filenames (can be changed using --config-path): ~/.config/rimetadb.conf, ~/rimetadb.conf, or /etc/rimetadb.conf.

All found files will be read and merged.

To disable searching for configuration files, pass --no-config.

To put configuration for a certain subcommand only, use a section name like [subcommand=NAME] or [SOMESECTION subcommand=NAME].

You can put multiple profiles in a single file by using section names like [profile=SOMENAME] or [SOMESECTION profile=SOMENAME] or [subcommand=SUBCOMMAND_NAME profile=SOMENAME] or [SOMESECTION subcommand=SUBCOMMAND_NAME profile=SOMENAME]. Those sections will only be read if you specify the matching --config-profile SOMENAME.

You can also put configuration for multiple programs inside a single file, and use filter program=NAME in section names, e.g. [program=NAME ...] or [SOMESECTION program=NAME]. The section will then only be used when the reading program matches.

Finally, you can filter a section by environment variable using the filter env=CONDITION in section names. For example if you only want a section to be read if a certain environment variable is true: [env=SOMEVAR ...] or [SOMESECTION env=SOMEVAR ...]. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable has value equals something: [env=HOSTNAME=blink ...] or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME=blink ...]. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable does not equal something: [env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...] or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...]. If you only want a section to be read when an environment variable contains something: [env=HOSTNAME*=server ...] or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME*=server ...]. Note that currently due to simplistic parsing, there must not be any whitespace in the value being compared because it marks the beginning of a new section filter or section name.
