Setup::File - Setup file (existence, mode, permission, content)

VERSION

version 0.15

FAQ

Why not allowing coderef in 'check_content_func' and 'gen_content_func' argument?

Because transactional function needs to store its argument in database (currently in JSON), coderefs are not representable in JSON.

DESCRIPTION

This module has Rinci metadata.

FUNCTIONS

None are exported by default, but they are exportable.

chmod(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Set file's permission mode.

Fixed state: path exists and mode is already correct.

Fixable state: path exists but mode is not correct.

Unfixable state: path doesn't exist.

This function is idempotent (repeated invocations with same arguments has the same effect as single invocation).

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • follow_symlink => bool (default: 0)

    Whether to follow symlink.

  • mode* => str

    Permission mode, either numeric or symbolic (e.g. a+w).

  • orig_mode => int

    If set, confirm if current mode is not the same as this.

  • path* => str

    Path to file/directory.

Special arguments:

Return value:

Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

chown(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Set file's ownership.

Fixed state: path exists and ownership is already correct.

Fixable state: path exists but ownership is not correct.

Unfixable state: path doesn't exist.

This function is idempotent (repeated invocations with same arguments has the same effect as single invocation).

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • allow_symlink => str

    Whether to regard symlink to a file as file.

  • check_content_func => str

    Name of function to check content.

    If unset, file will not be checked for its content. If set, function will be called whenever file content needs to be checked. Function will be passed the reference to file content and should return a boolean value indicating whether content is acceptable. If it returns a false value, content is deemed unacceptable and needs to be fixed.

    Alternatively you can use the simpler content or content_md5 argument.

  • content => str

    Desired file content.

    Alternatively you can also use content_md5, or gen_content_func and check_content_func.

  • content_md5 => str

    Check content against MD5 hash.

    MD5 hash should be expressed in hex (e.g. bed6626e019e5870ef01736b3553e570).

    If set, whenever a new file content is needed (e.g. when file is created or file content reset), this function will be called to provide it. If unset, empty string will be used instead.

    Function will be passed the reference to the current content (or undef) and should return the new content.

    Alternatively you can use the simpler content argument.

  • path* => str

    Path to file.

  • suffix => str

Special arguments:

Return value:

Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Special arguments:

Return value:

Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

setup_file(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Setup file (existence, mode, permission, content).

On do, will create file (if it doesn't already exist) and correct mode/permission as well as content.
