Greetings, Is the following possible? I'm making a template for future scripts and programs. I thought it would be useful to separate the standard cli args (man, help, usage, etc) to a separate package. My first try returns an error. Why?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';
use Getopt::Long;
use Pod::Usage;
use Data::Dumper;
my $VERSION = 1;
# Get standard options from reusable module
my $stdopts = Std::Opts->new();
my $std_cli_arg_ref = $stdopts->get_standard_args;
# Read, process, and validate cli args
my $cli_arg_ref;
GetOptions(
$cli_arg_ref,
$std_cli_arg_ref,
# These two samples can be removed
'myarg=s',
'arg2=i',
);
#
# Modules
#
package Std::Opts;
use strict;
use warnings;
sub new {
my ( $class ) = @_;
return bless {}, $class;
}
sub get_standard_args {
my $self = shift;
my $std_cli_arg_ref = {
'version' => sub { say $VERSION; exit
+ },
'test' => sub { _run_tests(); exit
+ },
'man' => sub { pod2usage( -verbose => 2, -exitval => 0 )
+ },
'dumpargs' => sub {
say '$cli_arg_ref = '. Dumper( $cli_arg_ref ); exit
},
'help|?' => sub {
pod2usage( -sections => ['OPTIONS'], -exitval => 0, -verbose
+ => 99)
},
'usage' => sub {
pod2usage( -sections => ['SYNOPSIS'], -exitval => 0, -verbose
+ => 99)
},
'examples' => sub {
pod2usage( -sections => 'EXAMPLES', -exitval => 0, -verbose
+ => 99)
},
};
return $std_cli_arg_ref;
}
1;
Returns:
$ ./foo.pl -du
Undefined argument in option spec
Error in option spec: "HASH(0x1772fc8)"
