wrapper script in perl

Hi,

I am in need of way to facilitate this senerio in a perl script.

I have CLI ( command line interface) which I run like so:

kip-tepltist -u Xxx -p Xxx

Which produces tones of names from each template it found:

194Iselin-NJ
33-IDFLB-North-611-Woodward-8600
34-IDFMBS-611-Woodward-860004-Vo
CAF-10.41.22
ukgla.ops.sun4us.bk
ukgla.ops.sun4us.prd

Basically the cli above is grabbing template information and spitting out the names of each and every template

Now that I have this list from above, I then need to run another CLI that gets the information of whats inside of each template from above. The CLI is use for this is:

./qip-getteinfo -U xx -P xx -n 194Iselin-NJ -t -o orig

The flags are:
U & P are user name and passwd
the -n is the name of the template I want to get its information
-t specifey what type of template
-o org id

So when I run this cli agianst 194Iselin-NJ the output looks like so:

template-name=194Iselin-NJ
template-type=DHCP Option Template
001=Same as in Subnet Profile
003=Same as in Subnet Profile
006=User Defined
006>User Defined=169.30.33.16 169.30.34.16
012=Same as in Object Profile
015=Same as in Subnet Profile
043=uktrq-uut-son4v-bk
051=Limited
051>Limited Lease Time=43200
066=169.30.34.62
186=169.30.34.62
187=[1f51]

What I need is a way to automate this.

I need a perl script that will run the first step, keep the names it finds some where on a text file perhaps,

Then run the next step, to reference the file names from step 1 and create a seperate file with the contents of all the names from step 1

So,

Run first part of the perl script
get the names of all the templates,

Second part of the perl script would reference the files from the first section and make a list .txt

so, the first one would be:
194Iselin-NJ

grab the contents and produce a file name 194Iselin-NJ.txt that would contain the template information of:

template-name=194Iselin-NJ
template-type=DHCP Option Template
001=Same as in Subnet Profile
003=Same as in Subnet Profile
006=User Defined
006>User Defined=169.30.33.16 169.30.34.16
012=Same as in Object Profile
015=Same as in Subnet Profile
043=uktsq-ops-sun4v-bk
051=Limited
051>Limited Lease Time=43200
066=169.30.34.62
186=169.30.34.62
187=[1f51]

Then loop and go to the next and so, on... until all the names and templates are created.

Thanks

alien::package::rpm

Alien::Package::Rpm(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  Alien::Package::Rpm(3pm)

NAME

       Alien::Package::Rpm - an object that represents a rpm package

DESCRIPTION

       This is an object class that represents a rpm package. It is derived from Alien::Package.

FIELDS

       prefixes
	   Relocatable rpm packages have a prefixes field.

METHODS

       checkfile
	   Detect rpm files by their extention.

       install
	   Install a rpm. If RPMINSTALLOPT is set in the environement, the options in it are passed to rpm on its command line.

       scan
	   Implement the scan method to read a rpm file.

       unpack
	   Implement the unpack method to unpack a rpm file. This is a little nasty because it has to handle relocatable rpms and has to do a bit
	   of permissions fixing as well.

       prep
	   Prepare for package building by generating the spec file.

       cleantree
	   Delete the spec file.

       build
	   Build a rpm. If RPMBUILDOPT is set in the environement, the options in it are passed to rpm on its command line.

	   An optional parameter, if passed, can be used to specify the program to use to build the rpm. It defaults to rpmbuild.

       version
	   Set/get version.

	   When retreiving the version, remove any dashes in it.

       postinst
       postrm
       preinst
       prerm
	   Set/get script fields.

	   When retrieving a value, we have to do some truely sick mangling. Since debian/slackware scripts can be anything -- perl programs or
	   binary files -- and rpm is limited to only shell scripts, we need to encode the files and add a scrap of shell script to make it
	   unextract and run on the fly.

	   When setting a value, we do some mangling too. Rpm maintainer scripts are typically shell scripts, but often lack the leading shebang
	   line.  This can confuse dpkg, so add the shebang if it looks like there is no shebang magic already in place.

	   Additionally, it's not uncommon for rpm maintainer scripts to contain bashisms, which can be triggered when they are ran on systems
	   where /bin/sh is not bash. To work around this, the shebang line of the scripts is changed to use bash.

	   Also, if the rpm is relocatable, the script could refer to RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX, which is set by rpm at run time. Deal with this by
	   adding code to the script to set RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX.

       arch
	   Set/get arch field. When the arch field is set, some sanitizing is done first to convert it to the debian format used internally. When
	   it's retreived it's converted back to rpm form from the internal form.
