NAME
Config::General - Generic Config Module
SYNOPSIS
use Config::General;
$conf = new Config::General("rcfile");
my %config = $conf->getall;
DESCRIPTION
This small module opens a config file and parses it's
contents for you. The new method requires one parameter
which needs to be a filename. The method getall returns a
hash which contains all options and it's associated values
of your config file.
The format of config files supported by Config::General is
inspired by the well known apache config format, in fact,
this module is 100% compatible to apache configs, but you
can also just use simple name/value pairs in your config
files.
In addition to the capabilities of an apache config file
it supports some enhancements such as here-documents, C-
style comments or multiline options.
There are currently no methods available for accessing
sub-parts of the generated hash structure, so it is on you
to access the data within the hash. But there exists a
module on CPAN which you can use for this purpose:
Data::DRef. Check it out!
INSTALLATION
to install, type:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
to read the complete documentation, type:
perldoc Config::General
see some example config files which can
be parsed with Config::Genreal in the subdirectory
t/cfg.*
