Name
App::Sqitch - Sensible database change management
Synopsis
use App::Sqitch;
exit App::Sqitch->go;
Description
This module provides the implementation for sqitch. You probably want to read its documentation, or the tutorial. Unless you want to hack on Sqitch itself, or provide support for a new engine or command. In which case, you will find this API documentation useful.
Interface
Class Methods
go
App::Sqitch->go;
Called from sqitch
, this class method parses command-line options and arguments in @ARGV
, parses the configuration file, constructs an App::Sqitch object, constructs a command object, and runs it.
Constructor
new
my $sqitch = App::Sqitch->new(\%params);
Constructs and returns a new Sqitch object. The supported parameters include:
options
user_name
user_email
editor
verbosity
Accessors
user_name
user_email
editor
options
my $options = $sqitch->options;
Returns a hashref of the core command-line options.
config
my $config = $sqitch->config;
Returns the full configuration, combined from the project, user, and system configuration files.
verbosity
Instance Methods
run
$sqitch->run('echo', '-n', 'hello');
Runs a system command and waits for it to finish. Throws an exception on error. Does not use the shell, so arguments must be passed as a list. Use shell
to run a command and its arguments as a single string.
target
-
The name of the target, as passed.
uri
-
A database URI object, to be used to connect to the target database.
registry
-
The name of the Sqitch registry in the target database.
If the $target
argument looks like a database URI, it will simply returned in the hash reference. If the $target
argument corresponds to a target configuration key, the target configuration will be returned, with the uri
value a upgraded to a URI object. Otherwise returns undef
.
shell
$sqitch->shell('echo -n hello');
Shells out a system command and waits for it to finish. Throws an exception on error. Always uses the shell, so a single string must be passed encapsulating the entire command and its arguments. Use quote_shell
to assemble strings into a single shell command. Use run
to execute a list without a shell.
quote_shell
my $cmd = $sqitch->quote_shell('echo', '-n', 'hello');
Assemble a list into a single string quoted for execution by shell
. Useful for combining a specified command, such as editor()
, which might include the options in the string, for example:
$sqitch->shell( $sqitch->editor, $sqitch->quote_shell($file) );
capture
my @files = $sqitch->capture(qw(ls -lah));
Runs a system command and captures its output to STDOUT
. Returns the output lines in list context and the concatenation of the lines in scalar context. Throws an exception on error.
probe
my $git_version = $sqitch->capture(qw(git --version));
Like capture
, but returns just the chomp
ed first line of output.
spool
$sqitch->spool($sql_file_handle, 'sqlite3', 'my.db');
$sqitch->spool(\@file_handles, 'sqlite3', 'my.db');
Like run, but spools the contents of one or ore file handle to the standard input the system command. Returns true on success and throws an exception on failure.
trace
trace_literal
$sqitch->trace_literal('About to fuzzle the wuzzle.');
$sqitch->trace('Done.');
Send trace information to STDOUT
if the verbosity level is 3 or higher. Trace messages will have trace:
prefixed to every line. If it's lower than 3, nothing will be output. trace
appends a newline to the end of the message while trace_literal
does not.
debug
debug_literal
$sqitch->debug('Found snuggle in the crib.');
$sqitch->debug_literal('ITYM "snuggie".');
Send debug information to STDOUT
if the verbosity level is 2 or higher. Debug messages will have debug:
prefixed to every line. If it's lower than 2, nothing will be output. debug
appends a newline to the end of the message while debug_literal
does not.
info
info_literal
$sqitch->info('Nothing to deploy (up-to-date)');
$sqitch->info_literal('Going to frobble the shiznet.');
Send informational message to STDOUT
if the verbosity level is 1 or higher, which, by default, it is. Should be used for normal messages the user would normally want to see. If verbosity is lower than 1, nothing will be output. info
appends a newline to the end of the message while info_literal
does not.
comment
comment_literal
$sqitch->comment('On database flipr_test');
$sqitch->comment_literal('Uh-oh...');
Send comments to STDOUT
if the verbosity level is 1 or higher, which, by default, it is. Comments have #
prefixed to every line. If verbosity is lower than 1, nothing will be output. comment
appends a newline to the end of the message while comment_literal
does not.
emit
emit_literal
$sqitch->emit('core.editor=emacs');
$sqitch->emit_literal('Getting ready...');
Send a message to STDOUT
, without regard to the verbosity. Should be used only if the user explicitly asks for output, such as for sqitch config --get core.editor
. emit
appends a newline to the end of the message while emit_literal
does not.
vent
vent_literal
$sqitch->vent('That was a misage.');
$sqitch->vent_literal('This is going to be bad...');
Send a message to STDERR
, without regard to the verbosity. Should be used only for error messages to be printed before exiting with an error, such as when reverting failed changes. vent
appends a newline to the end of the message while vent_literal
does not.
page
page_literal
$sqitch->page('Search results:');
$sqitch->page("Here we go\n");
Like emit()
, but sends the output to a pager handle rather than STDOUT
. Unless there is no TTY (such as when output is being piped elsewhere), in which case it is sent to STDOUT
. page
appends a newline to the end of the message while page_literal
does not. Meant to be used to send a lot of data to the user at once, such as when display the results of searching the event log:
$iter = $engine->search_events;
while ( my $change = $iter->() ) {
$sqitch->page(join ' - ', @{ $change }{ qw(change_id event change) });
}
warn
warn_literal
$sqitch->warn('Could not find nerble; using nobble instead.');
$sqitch->warn_literal("Cannot read file: $!\n");
Send a warning messages to STDERR
. Warnings will have warning:
prefixed to every line. Use if something unexpected happened but you can recover from it. warn
appends a newline to the end of the message while warn_literal
does not.
prompt
my $ans = $sqitch->('Why would you want to do this?', 'because');
Prompts the user for input and returns that input. Pass in an optional default value for the user to accept or to be used if Sqitch is running unattended. An exception will be thrown if there is no prompt message or if Sqitch is unattended and there is no default value.
ask_yes_no
if ( $sqitch->ask_yes_no('Are you sure?', 1) ) { # do it! }
Prompts the user with a "yes" or "no" question. Returns true if the user replies in the affirmative and false if the reply is in the negative. If the optional second argument is passed and true, the answer will default to the affirmative. If the second argument is passed but false, the answer will default to the negative. When a translation library is in use, the affirmative and negative replies from the user should be localized variants of "yes" and "no", and will be matched as such. If no translation library is in use, the answers will default to the English "yes" and "no".
If the user inputs an invalid value three times, an exception will be thrown. An exception will also be thrown if there is no message. As with prompt()
, an exception will be thrown if Sqitch is running unattended and there is no default.
ask_y_n
This method has been deprecated in favor of ask_yes_no()
and will be removed in a future version of Sqitch.
Constants
ISWIN
my $app = 'sqitch' . ( ISWIN ? '.bat' : '' );
True when Sqitch is running on Windows, and false when it's not.
