NAME

Sah::Schema::perl::filename - Filename of Perl script/module/POD, e.g. /path/Foo/Bar.pm

VERSION

This document describes version 0.049 of Sah::Schema::perl::filename (from Perl distribution Sah-Schemas-Perl), released on 2023-10-26.

SYNOPSIS

Using with Data::Sah

To check data against this schema (requires Data::Sah):

use Data::Sah qw(gen_validator);
my $validator = gen_validator("perl::filename*");
say $validator->($data) ? "valid" : "INVALID!";

The above validator returns a boolean result (true if data is valid, false if otherwise). To return an error message string instead (empty string if data is valid, a non-empty error message otherwise):

my $validator = gen_validator("perl::filename", {return_type=>'str_errmsg'});
my $errmsg = $validator->($data);

Often a schema has coercion rule or default value rules, so after validation the validated value will be different from the original. To return the validated (set-as-default, coerced, prefiltered) value:

my $validator = gen_validator("perl::filename", {return_type=>'str_errmsg+val'});
my $res = $validator->($data); # [$errmsg, $validated_val]

Data::Sah can also create validator that returns a hash of detailed error message. Data::Sah can even create validator that targets other language, like JavaScript, from the same schema. Other things Data::Sah can do: show source code for validator, generate a validator code with debug comments and/or log statements, generate human text from schema. See its documentation for more details.

Using with Params::Sah

To validate function parameters against this schema (requires Params::Sah):

use Params::Sah qw(gen_validator);

sub myfunc {
    my @args = @_;
    state $validator = gen_validator("perl::filename*");
    $validator->(\@args);
    ...
}

Using with Perinci::CmdLine::Lite

To specify schema in Rinci function metadata and use the metadata with Perinci::CmdLine (Perinci::CmdLine::Lite) to create a CLI:

# in lib/MyApp.pm
package
  MyApp;
our %SPEC;
$SPEC{myfunc} = {
    v => 1.1,
    summary => 'Routine to do blah ...',
    args => {
        arg1 => {
            summary => 'The blah blah argument',
            schema => ['perl::filename*'],
        },
        ...
    },
};
sub myfunc {
    my %args = @_;
    ...
}
1;

# in myapp.pl
package
  main;
use Perinci::CmdLine::Any;
Perinci::CmdLine::Any->new(url=>'/MyApp/myfunc')->run;

# in command-line
% ./myapp.pl --help
myapp - Routine to do blah ...
...

% ./myapp.pl --version

% ./myapp.pl --arg1 ...

Using on the CLI with validate-with-sah

To validate some data on the CLI, you can use validate-with-sah utility. Specify the schema as the first argument (encoded in Perl syntax) and the data to validate as the second argument (encoded in Perl syntax):

% validate-with-sah '"perl::filename*"' '"data..."'

validate-with-sah has several options for, e.g. validating multiple data, showing the generated validator code (Perl/JavaScript/etc), or loading schema/data from file. See its manpage for more details.

Using with Type::Tiny

To create a type constraint and type library from a schema (requires Type::Tiny as well as Type::FromSah):

package My::Types {
    use Type::Library -base;
    use Type::FromSah qw( sah2type );

    __PACKAGE__->add_type(
        sah2type('perl::filename*', name=>'PerlFilename')
    );
}

use My::Types qw(PerlFilename);
PerlFilename->assert_valid($data);

DESCRIPTION

Use this schema if you want to accept a filesystem path containing Perl script, module, or POD. The value of this schema is in the convenience of CLI completion, as well as coercion from script or module name.

String containing filename of a Perl script or module or POD. For convenience, when value is in the form of:

Foo
Foo.pm
Foo.pod
Foo::Bar
Foo/Bar
Foo/Bar.pm
Foo/Bar.pod

and a matching .pod or .pm file is found in @INC, then it will be coerced (converted) into the path of that .pod/.pm file, e.g.:

/home/ujang/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.24.0/lib/site_perl/5.24.0/Foo/Bar.pm
lib/Foo/Bar.pod

To prevent such coercion, you can use prefixing path, e.g.:

./Foo::Bar
../Foo/Bar
/path/to/Foo/Bar

This schema comes with convenience completion too.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
