Getopt-CommandLineExports

Getopt::CommandLineExports - Allow suroutines within a script to export command line options with bash auto completion


Example Code:

   use strict;
   use warnings;
   use Getopt::CommandLineExports qw(&regAC &parseArgsByPosition &parseArgs
       &checkArgs $scriptName @exportedSubs %cmdLines);

   $scriptName = qq[TestCommandLineExports];
   %cmdLines = (
       twoScalars          => [qw/ ONE=s TWO=s /],
       oneHash         => [qw/ ONE=s% /],
       oneList         => [qw/ ONE=s@ /],
   );
   sub twoScalars
   {
       my %h = (
           ONE => undef,
           TWO => undef,
           ( parseArgs \@_, @{$cmdLines{twoScalars}}),
       );
       print "twoScalars missing required argument:\n"
           . join( "\n", checkArgs \%h ) . "\n"
           if ( checkArgs \%h );
       return " $h{ONE} , $h{TWO} \n";
   }

   sub oneHash
   {
       my %h = (
           ONE => undef,
           ( parseArgs \@_, @{$cmdLines{oneHash}}),
       );
       print "oneHash missing required argument:\n"
           . join( "\n", checkArgs \%h ) . "\n"
           if ( checkArgs \%h );
       print "oneHash\n";
       print join("\n", (%{$h{ONE}}));
   }

   sub oneList
   {
       my %h = (
           ONE => undef,
           ( parseArgs \@_, @{$cmdLines{oneList}}),
       );
       print "oneList missing required argument:\n"
           . join( "\n", checkArgs \%h ) . "\n"
           if ( checkArgs \%h );
       print "oneList\n";
       print join("\n",@{$h{ONE}});
   }

   # The "Main" subroutine. Not included in package, must be added manually to a script
   # The following 10 lines of code hook in the included "regAC" function that will
   # Generate a bash auto completion script (it will try to install it in /etc/bash_completion.d,
   # otherwise it will print to stdout).
   if ( defined $ARGV[0] )
   {
       if ( defined( &{ $ARGV[0] } ) )
       {
           no strict 'refs';
           my $subRef = shift @ARGV;
           print join( "\n", &$subRef(@ARGV) ) . "\n" unless $subRef =~ /regAC/ ;
           &$subRef($scriptName, \@exportedSubs, \%cmdLines, \%additionalWordCompletions) if $subRef =~ /regAC/ ;
           exit 0;
       }
   }

   # some unit test examples:
   twoScalars "Hello1", "Hello2";
   twoScalars {ONE => "Hello1", TWO => "Hello2"};
   twoScalars "--ONE Hello1 --TWO Hello2";
   twoScalars "--ONE", "Hello1", "--TWO", "Hello2";
   twoScalars "--ONE", "Hello1", "--TWO", "Hello2", "--THREE", "Hello3"; # complains about "unknown option: three"
