FUNCTIONS

gen_pericmd_completer_script

Usage:

 gen_pericmd_completer_script(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Generate Perinci::CmdLine completer script.

This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • completion => code

  • default_subcommand => str

  • exclude_package_functions_match => re

    Exclude package functions matching this pattern.

  • get_subcommand_from_arg => int (default: 1)

  • include_package_functions_match => re

    Only include package functions matching this pattern.

  • interpreter_path => str

    What to put on shebang line.

  • load_module => array[str]

    Load extra modules.

  • output_file => filename (default: "-")

    Path to output file.

  • overwrite => bool (default: 0)

    Whether to overwrite output if previously exists.

  • per_arg_json => bool

  • per_arg_yaml => bool

  • program_name* => str

    Program name that is being completed.

  • read_config => bool

  • read_env => bool

  • skip_format => bool

  • strip => bool (default: 0)

    Whether to strip source code using Perl::Stripper.

  • subcommands => hash

    Hash of subcommand names and function URLs.

    Optionally, it can be additionally followed by a summary, so:

     URL[:SUMMARY]

    Example (on CLI):

     --subcommand "delete=/My/App/delete_item:Delete an item"
  • subcommands_from_package_functions => bool

    Form subcommands from functions under package's URL.

    This is an alternative to the subcommand option. Instead of specifying each subcommand's name and URL, you can also specify that subcommand names are from functions under the package URL in url. So for example if url is /My/App/, hen all functions under /My/App are listed first. If the functions are:

     foo
     bar
     baz_qux

    then the subcommands become:

     foo => /My/App/foo
     bar => /My/App/bar
     "baz-qux" => /My/App/baz_qux
  • url* => riap::url

    URL to function (or package, if you have subcommands).

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
