NAME
Perinci::Sub::DepChecker - Check dependencies from 'deps' property
VERSION
version 0.09
SYNOPSIS
use Perinci::Spec::DepChecker qw(check_deps dep_must_be_satisfied);
my $err = check_deps($meta->{deps});
print "Dependencies not met: $err" if $err;
print "We need to prepare foo"
if dep_satisfy_rel('foo', $meta->{deps}) =~ /^(?:must|might)$/;
DESCRIPTION
The 'deps' spec clause adds information about subroutine dependencies.
This module performs check on it.
This module is currently mainly used by Perinci::Sub::Wrapper.
FUNCTIONS
None is exported by default, but every function is exportable.
check_deps($deps) => ERRSTR
Check dependencies. Will in turn call various "checkdep_NAME()"
subroutines. Return empty string if all dependencies are met, or a
string containing an error message stating a dependency error.
Example:
my $err = check_deps({env=>'DEBUG'});
Will check environment variable "DEBUG". If true, will return an empty
string. Otherwise will set $err with something like "Environment
variable DEBUG not set/true".
Another example:
my $err = check_deps({ all=>[{env=>"A"}, {env=>"B", prog=>"bc"}] });
The above will check environment variables "A", "B", as well as program
"bc". All dependencies must be met (because we use the "and"
metaclause).
To support a custom dependency named "NAME", just define "checkdep_NAME"
subroutine in Perinci::Sub::DepChecker package which accepts a value and
should return an empty string on success or an error message string.
dep_satisfy_rel($name, $deps) => STR
Check dep satisfication relationship, i.e. whether dependency named
$name must be satisfied in $deps. Due to all, any, and none clauses,
this needs to be checked recursively and might yield an inconclusive
answer ("maybe").
Return "must" if $name definitely must be satisfied in $deps, "must not"
if definitely not, "" if need not be satisfied (dep clause does not
exist in deps), "impossible" if condition is impossible to be satisfied
(due to conflicts), "might" if dep might need to be satisfied (but might
also not).
Examples:
dep_satisfy_rel('env', {env=>"A"}) # => "must"
dep_satisfy_rel('a', {all=>[{a=>1}, {b=>1}]}) # => "must"
dep_satisfy_rel('a', {b=>2}) # => ""
dep_satisfy_rel('a', {none=>[{a=>1}, {b=>1}]}) # => "must not"
dep_satisfy_rel('c', {none=>[{a=>1}, {b=>1}]}) # => ""
dep_satisfy_rel('a', {any=>[{a=>1}, {b=>1}]}) # => "might"
dep_satisfy_rel('a', {all=>[{a=>1},
{none=>[{a=>1}]}]}) # => "impossible"
This function is useful if we want to prepare something that "must" or
"might" be needed, or want to avoid preparing something that "must not"
be present.
list_mentioned_dep_clauses($deps) => ARRAYREF
List all dep clauses mentioned in $deps. The returned array is *not*
sorted alphabetically, so you will have to do it yourself if you need it
sorted.
Example:
list_mentioned_dep_clauses({any=>[{a=>1}, {b=>1}]}) # => [qw/any a b/]
