NAME

App::CSVUtils::Manual::Tips - App::CSVUtils tips/tricks

VERSION

This document describes version 0.046 of App::CSVUtils::Manual::Tips (from Perl distribution App-CSVUtils), released on 2022-10-25.

DESCRIPTION

GET/SET CLIPBOARD

If you process data from/to GUI spreadsheet programs, as an alternative to using stdin/stdout (which often involves copy-pasting to GUI terminal emulator), you can also operate on clipboard: URLs as input/output to get/set data from/to clipboard. To do this, you must first install lwp::protocol::clipboard.

For example, after you copy a range of cells from LibreOffice, you can do:

% csv-munge-row -He '$_->{foo} = some-calculation...' --input-tsv clipboard: --output-tsv -o clipboard:

The first clipboard: argument retrieves CSV from clipboard in TSV format, while the second clipboard: argument sets output to clipboard where the result of operation will be sent to clipboard as new content. This is convenient because you don't have to copy-paste to/from terminal emulator first.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
