OPTIONS
*
marks required options.
Main options
- --every=s*
-
(No description)
Can also be specified as the 2nd command-line argument.
- --input-file=s
-
Default value:
"-"
Can also be specified as the 1st command-line argument.
- --num-parts=s, -n
-
(No description)
Configuration options
- --config-path=s, -c
-
Set path to configuration file.
Can actually be specified multiple times to instruct application to read from multiple configuration files (and merge them).
- --config-profile=s, -P
-
Set configuration profile to use.
A single configuration file can contain profiles, i.e. alternative sets of values that can be selected. For example:
[profile=dev] username=foo pass=beaver [profile=production] username=bar pass=honey
When you specify
--config-profile=dev
,username
will be set tofoo
andpassword
tobeaver
. When you specify--config-profile=production
,username
will be set tobar
andpassword
tohoney
. - --no-config, -C
-
Do not use any configuration file.
If you specify
--no-config
, the application will not read any configuration file.
Environment options
- --no-env
-
Do not read environment for default options.
If you specify
--no-env
, the application wil not read any environment variable.
Output options
- --format=s
-
Choose output format, e.g. json, text.
Default value:
undef
Output can be displayed in multiple formats, and a suitable default format is chosen depending on the application and/or whether output destination is interactive terminal (i.e. whether output is piped). This option specifically chooses an output format.
- --json
-
Set output format to json.
- --naked-res
-
When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.
Default value:
0
By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:
[200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]
The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use
--naked-res
so you just get:[1,2,3]
- --page-result
-
Filter output through a pager.
This option will pipe the output to a specified pager program. If pager program is not specified, a suitable default e.g.
less
is chosen. - --view-result
-
View output using a viewer.
This option will first save the output to a temporary file, then open a viewer program to view the temporary file. If a viewer program is not chosen, a suitable default, e.g. the browser, is chosen.
Other options
COMPLETION
This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.
bash
To activate bash completion for this script, put:
complete -C srtsplit srtsplit
in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.
tcsh
To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:
complete srtsplit 'p/*/`srtsplit`/'
in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).
other shells
For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.
CONFIGURATION FILE
This script can read configuration files. Configuration files are in the format of IOD, which is basically INI with some extra features.
By default, these names are searched for configuration filenames (can be changed using --config-path
): /home/u1/.config/srtsplit.conf, /home/u1/srtsplit.conf, or /etc/srtsplit.conf.
All found files will be read and merged.
To disable searching for configuration files, pass --no-config
.
You can put multiple profiles in a single file by using section names like [profile=SOMENAME]
or [SOMESECTION profile=SOMENAME]
. Those sections will only be read if you specify the matching --config-profile SOMENAME
.
You can also put configuration for multiple programs inside a single file, and use filter program=NAME
in section names, e.g. [program=NAME ...]
or [SOMESECTION program=NAME]
. The section will then only be used when the reading program matches.
You can also filter a section by environment variable using the filter env=CONDITION
in section names. For example if you only want a section to be read if a certain environment variable is true: [env=SOMEVAR ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=SOMEVAR ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable equals some string: [env=HOSTNAME=blink ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME=blink ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable does not equal some string: [env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable includes some string: [env=HOSTNAME*=server ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME*=server ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable does not include some string: [env=HOSTNAME!*=server ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME!*=server ...]
. Note that currently due to simplistic parsing, there must not be any whitespace in the value being compared because it marks the beginning of a new section filter or section name.
To load and configure plugins, you can use either the -plugins
parameter (e.g. -plugins=DumpArgs
or -plugins=DumpArgs@before_validate_args
), or use the [plugin=NAME ...]
sections, for example:
[plugin=DumpArgs]
-event=before_validate_args
-prio=99
[plugin=Foo]
-event=after_validate_args
arg1=val1
arg2=val2
which is equivalent to setting -plugins=-DumpArgs@before_validate_args@99,-Foo@after_validate_args,arg1,val1,arg2,val2
.

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.
