# EvaP.pm - Evaluate Parameters for Perl (the getopt et.al. replacement)
#
# Stephen.O.Lidie@Lehigh.EDU, 94/10/28
#
# Made to conform, as much as possible, to the C function evap. The C, Perl
# and Tcl versions of evap are patterned after the Control Data procedure
# CLP$EVALUATE_PARAMETERS for the NOS/VE operating system, although none
# approach the richness of CDC's implementation.
#
# Availability is via anonymous FTP from ftp.Lehigh.EDU in the directory
# pub/evap/evap-2.x.

# ^\s* to force the leading quotes to be in the beginning of the string
# \s$ to force the trailing quotes to be in the end of the string
# /s as a substitution option to match only at the end of the string
# rather then at the end of the line
#
# /s without /m will force ``^'' to match only at the beginning of the
# string and ``$'' to match only at the end (or just before a newline at the end)
# of the string
##########################################################################

# In this case the leading eand trailing quotes were already removed by perl before even calling the

=head1 NAME
Getopt::EvaP - evaluate Perl command line parameters.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use vars qw/@PDT @MM %OPT/;
use Getopt::EvaP;
EvaP \@PDT, \@MM, \%OPT;
=head1 EXPORT
C<use Getopt::EvaP> exports the subs C<EvaP> and C<EvaP_PAC> into your
name space.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<@PDT>
is the Parameter Description Table, which is a reference to a list of
strings describing the command line parameters, aliases,
types and default values.
B<@MM>
is the Message Module, which is also a reference to a list of strings
describing the command and it's parameters.
B<%OPT>
is an optional hash reference where Evaluate Parameters should place its
results. If specified, the historical behaviour of modifying the calling
routines' namespace by storing option values in B<%Options>, B<%options> and
B<$opt*> is disabled.
=head2 Introduction
Function Evaluate Parameters parses a Perl command line in a simple and
consistent manner, performs type checking of parameter values, and provides
the user with first-level help. Evaluate Parameters is also embeddable in
your application; refer to the B<evap_pac(2)> man page for complete details.
Evaluate Parameters handles command lines in the following format:
command [-parameters] [file_list]
where parameters and file_list are all optional. A typical example is the
C compiler:
cc -O -o chunk chunk.c
In this case there are two parameters and a file_list consisting of a
single file name for the cc command.
=head2 Parameter Description Table (PDT) Syntax
Here is the PDT syntax. Optional constructs are enclosed in [], and the
| character separates possible values in a list.
PDT [program_name, alias]
[parameter_name[, alias]: type [ = [default_variable,] default_value]]
PDTEND [optional_file_list | required_file_list | no_file_list]
So, the simplest possible PDT would be:
PDT
PDTEND
This PDT would simply define a I<-help> switch for the command, but is rather
useless.
A typical PDT would look more like this:
PDT frog
number, n: integer = 1
PDTEND no_file_list
This PDT, for command frog, defines a
single parameter, number (or n), of type integer with a default value of 1.
The PDTEND I<no_file_list> indicator indicates that no trailing file_list
can appear on the command line. Of course, the I<-help> switch is defined
automatically.
The
I<default_variable>
is an environment variable - see the section Usage Notes
for complete details.
=head2 Usage Notes
Usage is similar to getopt/getopts/newgetopt: define a Parameter
Description Table declaring a list of command line parameters, their
aliases, types and default values. The command line parameter
I<-help> (alias I<-h>) is automatically included by Evaluate
Parameters. After the evaluation the values of the command line
parameters are stored in variable names of the form B<$opt_parameter>,
except for lists which are returned as B<@opt_parameter>, where
I<parameter> is the full spelling of the command line parameter.
NOTE: values are also returned in the hashes B<%options> and
B<%Options>, with lists being passed as a reference to a list.
Of course, you can specify where you want Evaluate Parameters to return its
results, in which case this historical feature of writing into your namespace
is disabled.
An optional PDT line can be included that tells Evaluate Parameters whether
or not trailing file names can appear on the command line after all the
parameters. It can read I<no_file_list>, I<optional_file_list> or
I<required_file_list> and, if not specified, defaults to optional. Although
placement is not important, this line is by convention the last line of the
PDT declaration.
Additionally a Message Module is declared that describes the command
and provides examples. Following the main help text an optional
series of help text messages can be specified for individual command
line parameters. In the following sample program all the parameters
have this additional text which describes that parameter's type. The
leadin character is a dot in column one followed by the full spelling
of the command line parameter. Use I<-full-help> rather than I<-help>
to see this supplemental information. This sample program illustrates
the various types and how to use B<EvaP()>. The I<key> type is a
special type that enumerates valid values for the command line
parameter. The I<boolean> type may be specified as TRUE/FALSE,
YES/NO, ON/OFF or 1/0. Parameters of type I<file> have ~ and $HOME
expanded, and default values I<stdin> and I<stdout> converted to `-'
and `>-', respectively. Of special note is the default value
I<$required>: when specified, Evaluate Parameters will ensure a value
is specified for that command line parameter.
All types except I<switch> may be I<list of>, like the I<tty> parameter below.
A list parameter can be specified multiple times on the command line.
NOTE: in general you should ALWAYS quote components of your lists, even if
they're not type string, since Evaluate Parameters uses eval to parse them.
Doing this prevents eval from evaluating expressions that it shouldn't, such
as file name shortcuts like $HOME, and backticked items like `hostname`.
Although the resulting PDT looks cluttered, Evaluate Parameters knows what
to do and eliminates superfluous quotes appropriately.
Finally, you can specify a default value via an environment variable. If
a command line parameter is not specified and there is a corresponding
environment variable defined then Evaluate Parameters will use the value
of the environment variable. Examine the I<command> parameter for the syntax.
With this feature users can easily customize command parameters to their
liking. Although the name of the environment variable can be whatever you
choose, the following scheme is suggested for consistency and to avoid
conflicts in names:
=over 4
=item *
Use all uppercase characters.
=item *
Begin the variable name with D_, to suggest a default variable.
=item *
Continue with the name of the command or its alias followed by an underscore.
=item *
Complete the variable name with the name of the parameter or its alias.
=back
So, for example, D_DISCI_DO would name a default variable for the
display_option (do) parameter of the display_command_information
(disci) command. Works for MS-DOS and Unix.
=head1 Example

sample
A sample program demonstrating typical Evaluate Parameters
usage.
Examples:
sample
sample -usage-help
sample -help
sample -full-help
sample -mui 1234
.verbose
A switch type parameter emulates a typical standalone
switch. If the switch is specified Evaluate Parameters
returns a '1'.
.command
A string type parameter is just a list of characters,
which must be quoted if it contains whitespace.
NOTE: for this parameter you can also create and
initialize the environment variable D_SAMPLE_COMMAND to
override the standard default value for this command
line parameter. All types except switch may have a
default environment variable for easy user customization.
.scale_factor
A real type parameter must be a real number that may
contain a leading sign, a decimal point and an exponent.
.millisecond_update_interval
An integer type parameter must consist of all digits
with an optional leading sign. NOTE: this parameter's
default value is $required, meaning that
Evaluate Parameters ensures that this parameter is
specified and given a valid value. All types except
switch may have a default value of $required.
.ignore_output_file_column_one
A boolean type parameter may be TRUE/YES/ON/1 or
FALSE/NO/OFF/0, either upper or lower case. If TRUE,
Evaluate Parameters returns a value of '1', else '0'.
.output
A file type parameter expects a filename. For Unix
$HOME and ~ are expanded. For EvaP/Perl stdin and
stdout are converted to '-' and '>-' so they can be
used in a Perl open() function.
.queue
A key type parameter enumerates valid values. Only the
specified keywords can be entered on the command line.
.destination
An application type parameter is not type-checked in
any - the treatment of this type of parameter is
application specific. NOTE: this parameter' default
value is enclosed in grave accents (or "backticks").
Evaluate Parameters executes the command and uses it's
standard output as the default value for the parameter.
.tty
A name type parameter is similar to a string except
that embedded white-space is not allowed. NOTE: this
parameter is also a LIST, meaning that it can be
specified multiple times and that each value is pushed
onto a Perl LIST variable. In general you should quote
all list elements. All types except switch may be
'list of'.
end-of-MM
EvaP \@PDT, \@MM; # evaluate parameters
print "\nProgram name:\n $Options{'help'}\n\n";
if (defined $Options{'verbose'}) {print "\nverbose = $Options{'verbose'}\n";}
print "command = \"$Options{'command'}\"\n";
print "scale_factor = $Options{'scale_factor'}\n";
print "millisecond_update_interval = $Options{'millisecond_update_interval'}\n";
print "ignore_output_file_column_one = $Options{'ignore_output_file_column_one'}\n";
print "output = $Options{'output'}\n";
print "queue = $Options{'queue'}\n";
print "destination = $Options{'destination'}\n";
print "'list of' tty = \"", join('", "', @{$Options{'tty'}}), "\"\n";
print "\nFile names:\n ", join ' ', @ARGV, "\n" if @ARGV;
Using the PDT as a guide, Evaluate Parameters parses a user's
command line, returning the results of the evaluation to global
variables of the form B<$opt_parameter>, B<@opt_parameter>,
B<%Options{'parameter'}> or B<%options{'parameter'}>, where I<parameter>
is the full spelling of the command line parameter.
Of course, you can specify where you want Evaluate Parameters to return its
results, in which case this historical feature of writing into your namespace
is disabled.
Every command using Evaluate Parameters automatically has a
I<-help> switch which displays parameter help; no special code is
required in your application.
=head2 Customization of EvaP's Help Output
There are several Help Hook strings that can be altered to customize
B<EvaP>'s help output. Currently there is only one general area that can
be customized: usage and error text dealing with the trailing file_list.
For instance, if a command requires one or more trailing file names after
all the command line switches, the default I<-help> text is:
file(s) required by this command
Some commands do not want trailing "file names", but rather some other
type of information. An example is I<display_command_information> where
a single Program_Name is expected. The following code snippet shows
how to do this:
$Getopt::EvaP::evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHURFL'} = " Program_Name\n";
$Getopt::EvaP::evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHBRFL'} =
"\nA Program_Name is required by this command.\n\n";
$Getopt::EvaP::evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHERFL'} =
"A trailing Program_Name is required by this command.\n";
EvaP \@PDT, \@MM;
As you can see, the hash B<%evap_Help_Hooks> is indexed by a simple
ordinal. The ordinals are shown below and are mostly self-explanatory.
In case you don't have access to the source
for Evaluate Parameters, here are the default values of the Help Hook
strings.
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHURFL'} = " file(s)\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHUOFL'} = " [file(s)]\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHUNFL'} = "\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHBRFL'} =
"\nfile(s) required by this command\n\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHBOFL'} =
"\n[file(s)] optionally required by this command\n\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHBNFL'} = "\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHERFL'} =
"Trailing file name(s) required.\n";
$Getopt::EvaP:evap_Help_Hooks{'P_HHENFL'} =
"Trailing file name(s) not permitted.\n";
The Help Hooks naming convention is rather simple:
P_HHtf
where:
P_HH implies an Evaluate Parameters Help Hook
t type:
U=Usage Help
B=Brief and Full Help
E=error message
f file_list:
RFL=required_file_list
OFL=optional_file_list
NFL=no_file_list
Note to I<genPerlTk> and I<genTclTk> users: using these Help Hooks may
cause the "genTk programs" to generate an unuseable Tk script. This
happens because the "genTk programs" look for the strings "required by
this command" or "optionally required by this command" in order to
generate the file_list Entry widget - if these string are missing the
widget is not created. An easy solution is to ensure that your Help
Hook text contains said string, just like the code snippet above;
otherwise you must manually add the required Tk code yourself.
=head2 Human Interface Guidelines
To make Evaluate Parameters successful, you, the application developer, must
follow certain conventions when choosing parameter names and aliases.
Parameter names consist of one or more words, separated by underscores, and
describe the parameter (for example, I<verbose> and I<spool_directory>).
You can abbreviate parameters: use the first letter of each word in the
parameter name. Do not use underscores. For example, you can abbreviate
I<command> as I<c> and I<delay_period> as I<dp>.
There are exceptions to this standard:
=over 4
=item *
I<password> is abbreviated I<pw>.
=item *
The words I<minimum> and I<maximum> are abbreviated
I<min> and I<max>. So, the abbreviation for the
parameter I<maximum_byte_count> is I<maxbc>.
=item *
There are no abbreviations for the parameters
I<usage-help> and I<full-help>; I do not want to
prevent I<uh> and I<fh> from being used as valid
command line parameters.
=back
=head2 Variables MANPAGER, PAGER and D_EVAP_DO_PAGE
The environment variable MANPAGER (or PAGER) is used to control the
display of help information generated by Evaluate Parameters. If
defined and non-null, the value of the environment variable is taken as
the name of the program to pipe the help output through. If no paging
program is defined then the program I<more> is used.
The boolean environment variable D_EVAP_DO_PAGE can be set to FALSE/NO/OFF/0,
any case, to disable this automatic paging feature (or you can set your
paging program to I<cat>).
=head2 Return Values
B<EvaP()> behaves differently depending upon whether it's called to parse an
application's command line, or as an embedded command line parser
(for instance, when using B<evap_pac()>).
