NAME

Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags - Extract all tags from a repository

VERSION

version 0.004010

SYNOPSIS

This tool basically gives a more useful interface around

    git tag

Namely, each tag returned is a tag object, and you can view tag properties with it.

    use Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags;

    my $tags_finder = Git::Wrapper::Plus::Tags->new(
        git => $wrapper
    );

    # All tags
    for my $tag ( $tags_finder->tags ) {
        printf "%s - %s\n", $tag->name, $tag->sha1;
    }
    # Tag 1.1
    for my $tag ( $tags_finder->get_tag('1.1') ) {
        ...
    }
    # All tags starting with 1.1
    for my $tag ( $tags_finder->get_tag('1.*') ) {
        ...
    }
    # All tags that point directly to the SHA1 for current master
    for my $tag ( $tags_finder->tags_for_rev('master') ) {
        ...
    }

METHODS

tags

A List of ::Ref::Tag objects

    for my $tag ( $tag_finder->tags() ) {

    }

get_tag

    for my $tag ( $tags->get_tag('1.000') ) {

    }

    for my $tag ( $tags->get_tag('1.*') ) {

    }

Note: This can easily return multiple values.

For instance, tags is implemented as

    my ( @tags ) = $branches->get_tag('**');

Mostly, because the underlying mechanism is implemented in terms of fnmatch(3)

If the tag does not exist, or no tag match the expression, get_tag will return an empty list.

So in the top example, match is undef if 1.000 does not exist.

tag_sha1_map

A HashRef of sha1 => [ tag, tag ] entries.

    my $hash = $tag_finder->tag_sha1_map();
    for my $sha ( keys %{$hash} ) {
        my (@tags) = @{ $hash->{ $sha } };
        ...
    }

tags_for_rev

A List of ::Ref::Tag objects that point to the given SHA1.

    for my $tag ( $tag_finder->tags_for_rev( $sha1_or_commitish_etc ) ) {
        ...
    }
