MooseX...pt::GLD(3pm)

💖 MooseX::Getopt::GLD 💖

okay bestie, so this is MooseX::Getopt::GLD — it's the manual page for it (that's the (3pm) bit, iykyk). And lowkey? It's a Moose role that handles your command line options for you, using Getopt::Long::Descriptive under the hood. Main character energy fr. 👑

Version: 0.78 — yeah she's got a version number and she's proud of it ✨

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

so here's the whole vibe. First you do it in your class:

## In your class
package My::App;
use Moose;

with 'MooseX::Getopt::GLD';

# or

with 'MooseX::Getopt::GLD' => { getopt_conf => [ 'pass_through', ... ] };

has 'out' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', required => 1);
has 'in'  => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Str', required => 1);

# ... rest of the class here

then in your actual script:

## in your script
#!/usr/bin/perl

use My::App;

my $app = My::App->new_with_options();
# ... rest of the script here

and then on the command line you just go off:

## on the command line
% perl my_app_script.pl -in file.input -out file.dump

ate. no crumbs. 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so listen, this role is a parameterized role — meaning it takes a lil config of its own before it does its thing. She accepts exactly one configuration parameter:

• getopt_conf — an ArrayRef of strings, bestie. Each string is a Getopt::Long configuration option. If you wanna know what those look like, go read "Configuring Getopt::Long" in Getopt::Long. that's the lore. 📖
