Re^3: pp (PAR-Packer) - how to access included data files

[bliako]

dirname($ENV{PAR_0}) . "/inc".

Why you want to go low level when you have this? :

# PAR::read_file() returns a file inside any loaded PARs
my $conf = PAR::read_file('data/MyConfig.yaml');

(from SYNOPSIS)

Link to PAR#SYNOPSIS doesn't work :-) Maybe PAR#SYNOPSIS?

At any rate, this is the best place to begin learning about pp, rather than https://metacpan.org/pod/pp.

sorted link thanks

I must have overlooked read_file(). Thanks.

In my case, the easiest approach was to doctor the @ARGV before processing it, as follows:

if (exists $ENV{PAR_TEMP}){
    # running via PAR/pp
    push @ARGV, "$ENV{PAR_TEMP}/inc/lex.dict";
}
