NAME

BuzzSaw::Cmd::Import - BuzzSaw log entry importer application

VERSION

This documentation refers to BuzzSaw::Cmd::Import version 0.12.0

SYNOPSIS

This module is not designed to be used directly. It is used by App::BuzzSaw to provide a buzzsaw command-line application. The command-line application works like:

% buzzsaw import [--readall] [--configfile buzzsaw_import.yaml]

DESCRIPTION

This module extends the BuzzSaw::Cmd class to provide a command-line application which can be used to import new log entries. This module provides a light-weight wrapper around the BuzzSaw::Importer module which is what does the actual data processing.

The BuzzSaw project provides a suite of tools for processing log file entries. Entries in files are parsed and filtered into a set of events of interest which are stored in a database. A report generation framework is also available which makes it easy to generate regular reports regarding the events discovered.

ATTRIBUTES

This module has two attributes which are both accessible as command-line options.

configfile

This is a string which specifies the name of the configuration file to use when loading the BuzzSaw::Importer object. The default file is /etc/buzzsaw/importer.yaml, you only need to specify this option if you want to use an alternative file.

readall

This is a boolean value which controls whether to read all available sources (no matter whether or not they have been previously examined). The default is false.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

abstract

This method may be used to return a short string which describes the purpose of the application. The abstract is used when auto-generating help messages.

execute

This method loads the new BuzzSaw::Importer object using the new_with_config method. It provides the ability to override the values of the attributes which are accessible as command-line options. It then calls the import_events method which does the real work.

DEPENDENCIES

This module is powered by Moose. You will also need MooseX::Types and MooseX::App::Cmd
