NAME
Perinci::CmdLine::POD - Generate POD for Perinci::CmdLine-based CLI
script
VERSION
This document describes version 0.038 of Perinci::CmdLine::POD (from
Perl distribution Perinci-CmdLine-POD), released on 2022-10-27.
SYNOPSIS
Please see the included CLI script gen-pod-for-pericmd-script.
FUNCTIONS
gen_pod_for_pericmd_script
Usage:
gen_pod_for_pericmd_script(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]
Generate POD for Perinci::CmdLine-based CLI script.
This utility can accept either a path to a Perinci::CmdLine-based CLI
script, upon which the arguments to Perinci::CmdLine constructor will be
extracted using a script dumper (Perinci::CmdLine::Dump), or a set of
arguments to specify Perinci::CmdLine constructor arguments directly
(e.g. "url", "summary", "subcommands", etc).
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* common_opts => *hash*
Set `common_opts` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* completer_script => *str*
Script name for shell completion.
A special value of ":self" means this script can complete itself.
Without specifying this option, the COMPLETION POD section will not
be generated.
* config_dirs => *array[dirname]*
Set `config_dirs` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* config_filename => *str|array[str]|array[hash]*
Set `config_filename` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* default_subcommand => *str*
Set `default_subcommand` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* env_name => *str*
Set `env_name` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* gen_subcommand => *str*
Only generate POD for this subcommand.
See "--gen-subcommands".
* gen_subcommands => *bool* (default: 1)
Whether to generate POD for subcommands.
If you want to generate separate POD/manpage for each subcommand,
you can use this option for the main CLI POD, then generate each
subcommand's POD with the "--gen-subcommand=SUBCOMMAND_NAME" option.
* libs => *array[dirname]*
Extra libraries to pass to perl via -I.
* per_arg_json => *bool* (default: 1)
Set `per_arg_json` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* per_arg_yaml => *bool* (default: 1)
Set `per_arg_yaml` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* program_name => *str*
Set `program_name` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* read_config => *bool* (default: 1)
Set `read_config` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* read_env => *bool* (default: 1)
Set `read_env` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* script => *filename*
Path to script.
* subcommands => *hash*
Set `subcommands` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* summary => *str*
Set `summary` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base.
* url => *str*
Set `url` attribute, see Perinci::CmdLine::Base for more details.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something
like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual
result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error
response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is
called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional
metadata.
Return value: (any)

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.
