VERSION

Version 0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

use Proc::ProcessTable::Match;
use Proc::ProcessTable;
use Data::Dumper;

# looks for a kernel proc with the PID of 0
my %args=(
          checks=>[
                   {
                    type=>'PID',
                    invert=>0,
                    args=>{
                           pids=>['0'],
                           }
                   },{
                    type=>'KernProc',
                    invert=>0,
                    args=>{
                           }
                  }
                  ]
                 );

# hits on every proc but the idle proc
%args=(
          checks=>[
                   {
                    type=>'Idle',
                    invert=>1,
                    args=>{
                           }
                   }
                  ]
                 );

my $ppm;
eval{
    $ppm=Proc::ProcessTable::Match->new( \%args );
} or die "New failed with...".$@;

my $pt = Proc::ProcessTable->new;
foreach my $proc ( @{$t->table} ){
    if ( $ppm->match( $proc ) ){
        print Dumper( $proc );
    }
}

METHODS

new

This ininitates the object.

One argument is taken and it is a hashref with the key "checks". That value needs to contains a array of hashs of checks to run.

checks hash

Every check must hit for it to beconsidered a match.

Each of these should always be defined.

type

This is the module to use to use to run the check.

The name is relative 'Proc::ProcessTable::Match::', so 'PID' becomes 'Proc::ProcessTable::Match::PID'.

invert

This inverts inverts the returned value from the check.

args

This is a hash that will be pashed to the checker module's new method.

For any required keys, check the documents for that checker.

If it does not take any arguments, just pass a blank hash.

my %args=(
          checks=>[
                   {
                    type=>'PID',
                    invert=>0,
                    args=>{
                           pids=>['0'],
                           }
                   },{
                    type=>'KernProc',
                    invert=>0,
                    args=>{
                           }
                   }
                  ]
                 );

my $ppm;
eval{
    $ppm=Proc::ProcessTable::Match->new( \%args );
} or die "New failed with...".$@;

match

Checks if a single Proc::ProcessTable::Process object matches the stack.

One object is argument is taken and that is the Net::Connection to check.

The return value is a boolean.

if ( $ppm->match( $conn ) ){
    print "It matched.\n";
}
