NAME¶
Getopt::Complete::Options - a command-line options specification
VERSION¶
This document describes Getopt::Complete 0.26
SYNOPSIS¶
This is used internally by Getopt::Complete during compile.
my $opts = Getopt::Complete::Options->new(
'myfile=s' => 'f',
'mydir=s@' => 'd',
'<>' => ['one','two','three']
);
$opts->option_names;
# myfile mydir
$opts->option_spec("mydir")
# '=s@'
$opts->option_handler("myfile")
# 'f'
$opts->option_handler("<>")
# ['one','two','three'];
$opts->handle_shell_completion;
# if it detects it is talking to the shell completer, it will respond and then exit
# this method is used by the above, then makes a Getopt::Complete::Args.
($text_typed,$option_name,$remainder_of_argv) = $self->parse_completion_request($comp_words,$comp_cword);
DESCRIPTION¶
Objects of this class are used to construct a Getop::Complete::Args from a list
of command-line arguments. It specifies what options are available to the
command line, helping to direct the parser.
It also specifies what values are valid for those options, and provides an API
for access by the shell to do tab-completion.
The valid values list is also used by Getopt::Complete::Args to validate its
option values, and produce the error list it generates.
