MooseX::App::Simple - Single command applications
package MyApp; use MooseX::App::Simple qw(Config Color); parameter 'param' => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', documentation => q[First parameter], required => 1, ); # Positional parameter option 'my_option' => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'Bool', documentation => q[Enable this to do fancy stuff], ); # Option (--my_option) has 'private' => ( is => 'rw', ); # not exposed sub run { my ($self) = @_; # Do something }
And then in some simple wrapper script:
#!/usr/bin/env perl use MyApp; MyApp->new_with_options->run;
MooseX-App-Simple works basically just as MooseX-App, however it does not search for commands and assumes that you have all options and parameters defined in the current class.
Read the Tutorial for getting started with a simple MooseX::App command line application.
my $myapp_command = MyApp->new_with_options();
This method reads the command line arguments from the user and tries to create instantiate the current class with the ARGV-input. If it fails it retuns a MooseX::App::Message::Envelope object holding an error message.
You can pass a hash or hashref of default params to new_with_options
MyApp->new_with_options( %default );
Same as in MooseX::App
Same as in MooseX::App. However plugings adding commands (eg. version) will not work with MooseX::App::Simple.
See MooseX::Getopt and MooX::Options for alternatives
