NAME
MooseX::App::Meta::Role::Attribute::Option - Meta attribute role for options
DESCRIPTION
This meta attribute role will automatically be applied to all attributes that should be used as options.
ACCESSORS
In your app and command classes you can use the following attributes in option or parameter definitions. option 'myoption' => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'ArrayRef[Str]', documentation => 'My special option', cmd_flag => 'myopt', cmd_aliases => [qw(mopt localopt)], cmd_tags => [qw(Important!)], cmd_env => 'MY_OPTION', cmd_position => 1, cmd_split => qr/,/, ); cmd_flag Use this name instead of the attribute name as the option name cmd_type Option to mark if this attribute should be used as an option or parameter value. Allowed values are: • option - Command line option • proto - Command line option that should be processed prior to other options (eg. a config-file option that sets other attribues) Usually only used for plugin developmemt • parameter - Positional parameter command line value cmd_env Environment variable name (only uppercase letters, numeric and underscores allowed). If variable was not specified otherwise the value will be taken from %ENV. cmd_aliases Arrayref of alternative option names cmd_tags Extra option tags displayed in the usage information (in brackets) cmd_position Override the order of the parameters in the usage message. cmd_split Splits multiple values at the given separator string or regular expression. Only works in conjunction with an 'ArrayRef[*]' type constraint (isa). ie. '--myattr value1,value2' with cmd_split set to ',' would produce an arrayref with to elements. cmd_count Similar to the Getopt::Long '+' modifier, cmd_count turns the attribute into a counter. Every occurence of the attribute in @ARGV (without any value) would increment the resulting value by one
METHODS
These methods are only of interest to plugin authors. cmd_name_possible my @names = $attribute->cmd_name_possible(); Returns a list of all possible option names. cmd_name_primary my $name = $attribute->cmd_name_primary(); Returns the primary option name cmd_usage_name my $name = $attribute->cmd_usage_name(); Returns the name as used by the usage text cmd_usage_description my $name = $attribute->cmd_usage_description(); Returns the description as used by the usage text cmd_tags_list my @tags = $attribute->cmd_tags_list(); Returns a list of tags cmd_has_value my $has_value = $attribute->cmd_has_value(); Indicates if an commandline attribute has a value. Usually attributes with a boolean type constraint or counters don't have values. • undef: Does not have a boolean type constraint • true: Has a boolean type constraint • false: Has a boolean type constraint, and a true default value cmd_type_constraint_check $attribute->cmd_type_constraint_check($value) Checks the type constraint. Returns an error message if the check fails cmd_type_constraint_description $attribute->cmd_type_constraint_description($type_constraint,$singular) Creates a description of the selected type constraint. perl v5.20.2 2015-0MooseX::App::Meta::Role::Attribute::Option(3pm)
