App::Cmd::Setup(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation App::Cmd::Setup(3pm) NAME
App::Cmd::Setup - helper for setting up App::Cmd classes VERSION
version 0.318 OVERVIEW
App::Cmd::Setup is a helper library, used to set up base classes that will be used as part of an App::Cmd program. For the most part you should refer to the tutorial for how you should use this library. This class is useful in three scenarios: when writing your App::Cmd subclass Instead of writing: package MyApp; use base 'App::Cmd'; ...you can write: package MyApp; use App::Cmd::Setup -app; The benefits of doing this are mostly minor, and relate to sanity-checking your class. The significant benefit is that this form allows you to specify plugins, as in: package MyApp; use App::Cmd::Setup -app => { plugins => [ 'Prompt' ] }; Plugins are described in App::Cmd::Tutorial and App::Cmd::Plugin. when writing abstract base classes for commands That is: when you write a subclass of App::Cmd::Command that is intended for other commands to use as their base class, you should use App::Cmd::Setup. For example, if you want all the commands in MyApp to inherit from MyApp::Command, you may want to write that package like this: package MyApp::Command; use App::Cmd::Setup -command; Do not confuse this with the way you will write specific commands: package MyApp::Command::mycmd; use MyApp -command; Again, this form mostly performs some validation and setup behind the scenes for you. You can use "base" if you prefer. when writing App::Cmd plugins App::Cmd::Plugin is a mechanism that allows an App::Cmd class to inject code into all its command classes, providing them with utility routines. To write a plugin, you must use App::Cmd::Setup. As seen above, you must also use App::Cmd::Setup to set up your App::Cmd subclass if you wish to consume plugins. For more information on writing plugins, see App::Cmd::Manual and App::Cmd::Plugin. AUTHOR
