Libconf::Templates::Generic::Value - Libconf generic low level template for semantic (VALUE) styles config files
Libconf::Templates::Generic::Value is a generic template that handles config files that contain semantic informations of type : (VALUE).
$template = new Libconf::Templates::Generic::Value({ filename => 'some_filename', regexp => '^\s*(\S+)\s*$', comments_struct => [['#']], output_function => sub { my ($atom) = @_; 'val : ' . $atom->{value} } }); $template->read_conf(); $template->edit_atom(-1, { value => 'foo' }, { value => 'foo' }); $template->edit_atom(5, { value => 'some value' }); ... (see L<Libconf::Templates> for transformation methods on $template) ... ... $template->write_conf("output_file");
creates the template
$template = new Libconf::Templates::Generic::Value({ filename => 'some_file', regexp => '^\s*(\S+)\s*$', comments_struct => [['#']], output_function => sub { my ($atom) = @_; 'val : ' . $atom->{value} } })
