entries
VERSION
This document describes version 0.251 of Unix::Passwd::File (from Perl
distribution Unix-Passwd-File), released on 2020-04-29.
SYNOPSIS
use Unix::Passwd::File;
# list users. by default uses files in /etc (/etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, et al)
my $res = list_users(); # [200, "OK", ["root", ...]]
# change location of files, return details
$res = list_users(etc_dir=>"/some/path", detail=>1);
# [200, "OK", [{user=>"root", uid=>0, ...}, ...]]
# also return detail, but return array entries instead of hash
$res = list_users(detail=>1, with_field_names=>0);
# [200, "OK", [["root", "x", 0, ...], ...]]
# get user/group information
$res = get_group(user=>"paijo"); # [200, "OK", {user=>"paijo", uid=>501, ...}]
$res = get_user(user=>"titin"); # [404, "Not found"]
# check whether user/group exists
say user_exists(user=>"paijo"); # 1
say group_exists(group=>"titin"); # 0
# get all groups that user is member of
$res = get_user_groups(user=>"paijo"); # [200, "OK", ["paijo", "satpam"]]
# check whether user is member of a group
$res = is_member(user=>"paijo", group=>"satpam"); # 1
# adding user/group, by default adding user will also add a group with the same
# name
$res = add_user (user =>"ujang", ...); # [200, "OK", {uid=>540, gid=>541}]
$res = add_group(group=>"ujang", ...); # [412, "Group already exists"]
# modify user/group
$res = modify_user(user=>"ujang", home=>"/newhome/ujang"); # [200, "OK"]
$res = modify_group(group=>"titin"); # [404, "Not found"]
# deleting user will also delete user's group
$res = delete_user(user=>"titin");
# change user password
$res = set_user_password(user=>"ujang", pass=>"foobar");
$res = modify_user(user=>"ujang", pass=>"foobar"); # same thing

DESCRIPTION
This module can be used to read and manipulate entries in Unix system
password files (/etc/passwd, /etc/group, /etc/group, /etc/gshadow; but
can also be told to search in custom location, for testing purposes).
This module uses a procedural (non-OO) interface. Each function in this
module open and read the passwd files once. Read-only functions like
`list_users()` and `get_max_gid()` open in read-only mode. Functions
that might write to the files like `add_user()` or `delete_group()`
first lock `passwd` file, open in read+write mode and also read the
files in the first pass, then seek to the beginning and write back the
files.
No caching is done so you should do your own if you need to.
FUNCTIONS
add_delete_user_groups
Usage:
add_delete_user_groups(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]
Add or delete user from one or several groups.
This can be used to reduce several "add_user_to_group()" and/or
"delete_user_from_group()" calls to a single call. So:
add_delete_user_groups(user=>'u',add_to=>['a','b'],delete_from=>['c','d']);
is equivalent to:
add_user_to_group (user=>'u', group=>'a');
add_user_to_group (user=>'u', group=>'b');
delete_user_from_group(user=>'u', group=>'c');
delete_user_from_group(user=>'u', group=>'d');
except that "add_delete_user_groups()" does it in one pass.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* add_to => *array[unix::groupname]* (default: [])
List of group names to add the user as member of.
* delete_from => *array[unix::groupname]* (default: [])
List of group names to remove the user as member of.

Specify location of passwd files.
* user* => *unix::username*
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200
means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is
a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third
element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta)
is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
information.
Return value: (any)

SEE ALSO
Old modules on CPAN which do not support shadow files are pretty useless
to me (e.g. Unix::ConfigFile). Shadow passwords have been around since
1988 (and in Linux since 1992), FFS!
Passwd::Unix. I created a fork of Passwd::Unix v0.52 called
Passwd::Unix::Alt in 2011 to fix some of the deficiencies/quirks in
Passwd::Unix, including: lack of tests, insistence of running as root
(despite allowing custom passwd files), use of not-so-ubiquitous bzip2,
etc. Then in 2012 I decided to create Unix::Passwd::File. Here are how
Unix::Passwd::File differs compared to Passwd::Unix (and
Passwd::Unix::Alt):
* tests in distribution
* no need to run as root
* no need to be able to read the shadow file for some operations
For example, "list_users()" will simply not return the "encpass"
field if the shadow file is unreadable. Of course, access to shadow
file is required when getting or setting password.
* strictly procedural (non-OO) interface
I consider this a feature :-)
* detailed error message for each operation
* removal of global error variable
* working locking
Locking is done by locking "passwd" file.
Setup::Unix::User and Setup::Unix::Group, which use this module.
