NAME

       GitLab::API::v4::Config - Load configuration from a file, environment, and/or CLI options.

SYNOPSIS

           use GitLab::API::v4;
           use GitLab::API::v4::Config;

           my $config = GitLab::API::v4::Config->new();
           my $api = GitLab::API::v4->new( $config->args() );

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used by gitlab-api-v4 to load configuration.

       If you are using GitLab::API::v4 directly then this module will not be automatically used,
       but you are welcome to explicitly use it as shown in the "SYNOPSIS".

ARGUMENTS

   file
       The file to load configuration from.  The file should hold valid JSON.

       By default this will be set to ".gitlab-api-v4-config" in the current user's home
       directory.

       This can be overridden with the "GITLAB_API_V4_CONFIG_FILE" environment variable or the
       "--config-file=..." command line argument.

ATTRIBUTES

   opt_args
       Returns a hashref of arguments derived from command line options.

       Supported options are:

           --config_file=...
           --url=...
           --private-token=...
           --access-token=...
           --retries=...

       Note that the options are read from, and removed from, @ARGV.  Due to this the arguments
       are saved internally and re-used for all instances of this class so that there are no
       weird race conditions.

   env_args
       Returns a hashref of arguments derived from environment variables.

       Supported environment variables are:

           GITLAB_API_V4_CONFIG_FILE
           GITLAB_API_V4_URL
           GITLAB_API_V4_PRIVATE_TOKEN
           GITLAB_API_V4_ACCESS_TOKEN
           GITLAB_API_V4_RETRIES

   file_args
       Returns a hashref of arguments gotten by decoding the JSON in the "file".

   args
       Returns a final, combined, hashref of arguments containing everything in "opt_args",
       "env_args", and "file_args".  If there are any duplicate arguments then "opt_args" has
       highest precedence, "env_args" is next, and at the bottom is "file_args".

METHODS

   get_options
   configure
       When called this method interactively prompts the user for argument values and then
       encodes them as JSON and stores them in "file".  The file will be chmod'ed 0600 so that
       only the current user may read or write to the file.
