Config::MVP::Sequence(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Config::MVP::Sequence(3pm)

NAME
Config::MVP::Sequence - an ordered set of named configuration sections VERSION
version 2.200002 DESCRIPTION
A Config::MVP::Sequence is an ordered set of configuration sections, each of which has a name unique within the sequence. For the most part, you can just consult Config::MVP to understand what this class is and how it's used. ATTRIBUTES
is_finalized This attribute is true if the sequence has been marked finalized, which will prevent any changes (via methods like "add_section" or "delete_section"). It can be set with the "finalize" method. METHODS
add_section $sequence->add_section($section); This method adds the given section to the end of the sequence. If the sequence already contains a section with the same name as the new section, an exception will be raised. delete_section my $deleted_section = $sequence->delete_section( $name ); This method removes a section from the sequence and returns the removed section. If no section existed, the method returns false. section_named my $section = $sequence->section_named( $name ); This method returns the section with the given name, if one exists in the sequence. If no such section exists, the method returns false. section_names my @names = $sequence->section_names; This method returns a list of the names of the sections, in order. sections my @sections = $sequence->sections; This method returns the section objects, in order.
