NAME
Dpkg::Conf - parse dpkg configuration files
DESCRIPTION
The Dpkg::Conf object can be used to read options from a configuration
file. It can export an array that can then be parsed exactly like
@ARGV.
METHODS
$conf = Dpkg::Conf->new(%opts)
Create a new Dpkg::Conf object. Some options can be set through
%opts: if allow_short evaluates to true (it defaults to false),
then short options are allowed in the configuration file, they
should be prepended with a single hyphen.
@$conf
@options = $conf->get_options()
Returns the list of options that can be parsed like @ARGV.
$conf->load($file)
Read options from a file. Return the number of options parsed.
$conf->load_system_config($file)
Read options from a system configuration file.
Return the number of options parsed.
$conf->load_user_config($file)
Read options from a user configuration file. It will try to use the
XDG directory, either $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dpkg/ or
$HOME/.config/dpkg/.
Return the number of options parsed.
$conf->load_config($file)
Read options from system and user configuration files.
Return the number of options parsed.
$conf->parse($fh)
Parse options from a file handle. When called multiple times, the
parsed options are accumulated.
Return the number of options parsed.
$conf->filter(%opts)
Filter the list of options, either removing or keeping all those
that return true when $opts{remove}->($option) or
$opts{keep}->($option) is called.
$string = $conf->output([$fh])
Write the options in the given filehandle (if defined) and return a
string representation of the content (that would be) written.
"$conf"
Return a string representation of the content.
$conf->save($file)
Save the options in a file.
