💖 App::Pinto::Command::props — aka props(3pm) in the User Contributed Perl Documentation 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the page for App::Pinto::Command::props and it's literally the command that shows or sets your stack properties. slay.

VERSION: version 0.14 ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT props [OPTIONS] [STACK]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So like, this command shows or sets stack configuration properties. That's the whole vibe.

  • If you pass the --properties option, the properties get set. 🖊️
  • If you don't pass --properties, the properties just get shown. 👀

periodt.

🎀 COMMAND ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • STACK — if you give this argument, then the properties for that stack get set/shown. If you don't give it, then the properties for the default stack get set/shown. easy!

💅 COMMAND OPTIONS 💅

  • --format=FORMAT_SPECIFICATION — formats the output using printf-style placeholders. ngl this only matters when you're showing properties, not setting them. the valid placeholders are:
    • %p — Property name
    • %v — Package value
  • --properties name=value
  • --prop name=value
  • -P name=value — specifies property names and values. you can repeat this option as many times as you want to set multiple properties (go off, multi-setter 💅). if a property with that name doesn't already exist, it will be created. property names must be alphanumeric plus hyphens and underscores, and they will be forced to lower case. and setting a property to an empty string will cause it to be deleted. bye felicia 👋
🚨 okay this is the important one: properties starting with the prefix pinto- are reserved for internal use, SO DO NOT CREATE OR CHANGE THEM. like, don't. I'm begging. 🙈

👑 SUPPORTED PROPERTIES 👑

The following properties are supported for each stack:

  • description — a description of the stack, usually to inform users of the application and/or environment that the stack is intended for. for a new stack, it defaults to The STACK_NAME stack. for a copied stack, it defaults to Copy of stack STACK_NAME. cute, right?
  • target_perl_version — the version of perl that this stack is targeted at. this is used to determine whether a particular package is satisfied by the perl core and therefore does not need to be added to the stack. 🐪

it must be a version string or number for an existing perl release, and it cannot be later than the latest version specified in your Module::CoreList. to target even newer perls, just install the latest version of Module::CoreList. and remember — Pinto is often installed as a stand-alone application, so you'll need to update Pinto's copy of Module::CoreList, for example:

cpanm -L /opt/local/pinto/ Module::CoreList

iykyk. 🔥
