NAME

ALPM::LoadConfig - pacman.conf config file parsing class.

SYNOPSIS

# At startup:
use ALPM qw( /etc/pacman.conf );

# At runtime:
ALPM->load_config('/etc/pacman.conf');

# Load custom fields as well:
my $value;
my %fields = ( 'CustomField' => sub { $value = shift } );
my $loader = ALPM::LoadConfig->new( custom_fields => \%fields );
$loader->load_file( '/etc/pacman.conf' );

DESCRIPTION

This class is used internally by ALPM to parse pacman.conf config files. The settings are used to set ALPM options. You probably don't need to use this module directly.

CONSTRUCTOR

new

$OBJ = ALPM::LoadConfig->new( custom_fields => \%FIELDS_REF? );

Parameters

\%FIELDS_REF (Hash Reference) (Optional)

Keys are field names from the /etc/pacman.conf configuration file. Values are code references. When a field is found inside the configuration file with the exact same name, then the code reference is called, passed the value of the entry as the only argument.

METHODS

load_config

undef = $OBJ->load_config( $CFG_FILE_PATH )

This method will read a configuration file, setting ALPM options as it goes.

Parameters

$CFG_FILE_PATH

The path to the configuration file to read.
