DESCRIPTION

By loading this class into your command classes you enable all documentation features such as:

• Parsing command documentation from Pod

• Setting the command documentation manually via command_short_description and command_long_description

• Overriding the automated usage header with custom usage from Pod or via command_usage

• Adding the cmd_tags, cmd_flag, cmd_aliases and cmd_type attributes to options

FUNCTIONS

command_short_description

Set the short description. If not set this information will be taken from the Pod NAME or ABSTRACT section. Alternative this will be taken from the DistZilla ABSTRACT tag.

command_long_description

Set the long description. If not set this information will be taken from the Pod DESCRIPTION or OVERVIEW sections.

command_usage

Set custom usage. If not set this will be taken from the Pod SYNOPSIS or USAGE section. If those sections are not available, the usage information will be autogenerated.

command_strict

command_strict(0); # default 
OR
command_strict(1); 

If strict is enabled the programm will terminate with an error message if superfluous/unknown positional parameters are supplied. If disabled all extra parameters will be copied to the extra_argv attribute.

The app_strict function in the app classes allows to set this option globally.
