use Venus::Config;

my $config = Venus::Config->new;

# $config = $config->read_file('app.pl');

# "..."

DESCRIPTION

This package provides methods for loading Perl, YAML, and JSON configuration files, and fetching configuration information.

INHERITS

This package inherits behaviors from:

Venus::Kind::Utility

INTEGRATES

This package integrates behaviors from:

Venus::Role::Valuable

METHODS

This package provides the following methods:

edit_file

edit_file(string $file, string | coderef $code) (Venus::Config)

The edit_file method does an in-place edit, i.e. it loads a Perl, YAML, or JSON configuration file, passes the decoded data to the method or callback provided, and writes the results of the method or callback to the file.

Since 3.10

edit_file example 1
package main;

use Venus::Config;

my $config = Venus::Config->edit_file('t/conf/edit.perl', sub {
  my ($self, $data) = @_;

  $data->{edited} = 1;

  return $data;
});

# bless(..., 'Venus::Config')

read_file

read_file(string $path) (Venus::Config)

The read_file method load a Perl, YAML, or JSON configuration file, based on the file extension, and returns a new Venus::Config object.

package main;

use Venus::Config;

my $config = Venus::Config->read_file('t/conf/read.perl');

# bless(..., 'Venus::Config')

use Venus::Config;

my $config = Venus::Config->read_file('t/conf/read.json');

# bless(..., 'Venus::Config')
