NAME

       Config::Model::Backend::Dpkg - Read and write config as plain file

SYNOPSIS

        use Config::Model;
        use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);
        Log::Log4perl->easy_init($WARN);

        my $model = Config::Model->new;

        my $inst = $model->create_config_class(
           name => "WithDpkg",
           element => [
               [qw/source new/] => { qw/type leaf value_type uniline/ },
           ],
           rw_config  => {
                   backend => 'Dpkg',
                   config_dir => 'debian',
           },
        );

        my $inst = $model->instance(root_class_name => 'WithDpkg' );
        my $root = $inst->config_root ;

        $root->load('source=foo new=yes' );

        $inst->write_back ;

       Now "debian" directory will contain 2 files: "source" and "new" with "foo" and "yes" inside.

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used directly by Config::Model to read or write the content of a Debian package files.
       Each element of the Dpkg node is written in a plain file.

       This module supports currently only leaf and list elements.  In the case of "list" element, each line of
       the file is a value of the list.

       This class is based on  Config::Model::Backend::PlainFile and overrides reading of files in
       "debian/patches" and "debian/*install" files.
