NAME

       Arch::Session - access arch archives

SYNOPSIS

           use Arch::Session;

           my $session = Arch::Session->new;

           my $rev  = 'migo@homemail.com--Perl-GPL/arch-perl--devel--0--patch-1';
           my $log  = $session->get_revision_log($rev);
           my $cset = $session->get_revision_changeset($rev);
           my $tree = $session->get_tree($rev);

DESCRIPTION

       Arch::Session provides an interface to access changesets and logs stored in arch archives.

METHODS

       The following common methods (inherited and pure virtual that this class implements) are
       documented in Arch::Storage:

       new, init, working_name, working_names, fixup_name_alias, is_archive_managed,
       expanded_revisions.

       archives, categories, branches, versions, revisions, get_revision_descs,
       expanded_archive_info, get_revision_changeset, get_changeset, get_revision_log, get_log.

       Additionally, the following methods are available:

       get_specified_changeset, clear_cache, get_tree, init_tree, my_id.

       get_specified_changeset arg
           Get changeset object (Arch::Changeset) by a user specified input. arg may be revision
           name, or changeset directory, or tree directory (then changeset for tree changes is
           constructed), and in the future local tarball filepath or remote tarball url.

       clear_cache [key ..]
           For performance reasons, most method results are cached (memoized in fact).  Use this
           method to explicitly request this cache to be cleared.

           By default all cached keys are cleared; key may be one of the strings 'archives',
           'categories', 'branches', 'versions', 'revisions' or 'revision_descs'.

       get_tree [{ options }] [revision [dir]]
           Construct a working tree for revision or working_name in dir. If dir is not specified,
           a new temporary directory is automatically created.

           Keys of options may be pristine, link, library, sparse, non_sparse, no_greedy_add; all
           are false by default.  See "tla get".

       init_tree dir
           Run "tla init-tree" in dir.

       my_id [newid]
           Get or set "tla my-id".
