NAME

Getopt::Hash - Process command line options based upon convention rather than configuration.

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

I have simple command line option processing needs. I don't want to configure a list of allowed options and I want to be able to mix-and-match single-character ("-h") with long ("--version") options. This module is intended to fill that role. It processes @ARGV, returns a hash of command line options and then gets out of your way.

Basic usage:

use Getopt::Hash;

# Processes @ARGV and returns hash of identified options.
my $opts = Getopt::Hash::getopts();

But examples are always more illustrative:

  • When @ARGV = ()

    Returns {}

  • When @ARGV = ( '-a' )

    Returns { 'a' => '' }

  • When @ARGV = ( '-a', '-b=bravo', '-c:charlie', '-verbose' )

    Returns { 'a' => '', 'b' => 'bravo', 'c' => 'charlie', 'verbose' => '' }

  • When @ARGV = ( '-a', '--', '-b', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' )

    Returns { 'a' => '' }

EXPORT

No functions are currently exported.

FUNCTIONS
