NAME

Config::MySQL::Writer - Write MySQL-style configuration files

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

If $config contains

    {
        'mysqld' => {
            'datadir'      => '/var/lib/mysql',
            'skip-locking' => undef,
        },
        'mysqldump' => {
            'quick'              => undef,
            'max_allowed_packet' => '16M',
        },
        '_' => {
            '!include' => [
                '/etc/my_extra.cnf',
                '/etc/my_other.cnf',
            ],
            '!includedir' => [
                '/etc/my.cnf.d',
            ],
        },
    }

Then when your program contains

    my $config = Config::MySQL::Writer->write_file( $config, 'my.cnf' );

my.cnf will contain !include /etc/my_extra.cnf !include /etc/my_other.cnf !includedir /etc/my.cnf.d

    [mysqld]
    datadir=/var/lib/mysql
    skip-locking

    [mysqldump]
    quick
    max_allowed_packet = 16M

DESCRIPTION

This module extends Config::INI::Writer to support writing MySQL-style configuration files. Although deceptively similar to standard .INI files, they can include bare boolean options with no value assignment and additional features like !include and !includedir.

METHODS FOR WRITING CONFIG

write_file, write_string, and write_handle

See "METHODS FOR WRITING CONFIG" in Config::INI::Writer for usage details.

OVERRIDDEN METHODS

stringify_value_assignment

Copes with MySQL-style include directives and boolean properties that have no value assignment
