NAME

Config::Param::FileWorker - work with Config::Param-style configuration files for this program

SYNOPSIS

my $pfw = Config::Param::FileWorker->new(\%config, \@pardef);
$param = $pfw->param();
$pfw->load_file($filename);	
print "Got value $param->{key} for parameter key out of file $filename.\n";

DESCRIPTION

This facilitates changes to the configuration of a program while running by reading different config files on demand. See Config::Param for background and also on configuration syntax.

METHODS

new

The constructor, taking Config::Param-style config hash and parameter definition.

my $pfw = Config::Param::FileWorker->new(\%config, \@pardef);
param

Access the internal parameter storage for retrieval or modification.

$param = $pfw->param();
$param->{key} = $something;
load_file

Load values from a configuration file.

$pfw->load_file($filename);
store_file

Store values in a configuration file (overwrite it).

$pfw->store_file($filename);
init_with_args

Parse command line arguments (@ARGV if none given explicitly) and indicated/automatically found configuration files. Basically this is how a normal program using Config::Param starts.

$pfw->init_with_args(); # uses @ARGV
$pfw->init_with_args(\@args);
load_defaults

Reset parameter storage to default values.

$pfw->load_defaults();
store_defaults

Store current state of parameter storage as defaults.

$pfw->store_defaults();
