NAME

Dir::Manifest

VERSION

version 0.0.1

DESCRIPTION

Here is the primary use case: you have several long texts (and/or binary blobs) that you wish to load from the code (e.g: for the "want"/expected values of tests) and you wish to conventiently edit them, track them and maintain them. Using Dir::Manifest you can put each in a separate file in a directory, create a manifest file listing all valid filenames/key and then say something like my $text = $dir->text("deal24solution.txt", {lf => 1}). And hopefully it will be done securely and reliably.

NAME

Dir::Manifest - treat a directory and a manifest file as a hash/dictionary of keys to texts or blobs

VERSION

version 0.0.1

METHODS

$self->manifest_fn()

The path to the manifest file.

$self->dir()

The path to the directory containing the texts and blobs as files.

$self->get_keys()

Returns a sorted array reference containing the available keys as strings.

$self->get_obj($key)

Returns the Dir::Manifest::Key object associated with the string $key. Throws an error if $key was not given in the manifest.

my $contents = $self->text("$key", {%OPTS})

Slurps the key using Dir::Manifest::Slurp
