NAME¶

Debbugs::Control::Service -- Handles the modification parts of scripts/service by calling Debbugs::Control

SYNOPSIS¶

use Debbugs::Control::Service;

DESCRIPTION¶

This module contains the code to implement the grammar of control@. It is abstracted here so that it can be called from process at submit time.

All of the public functions take the following options:

debug -- scalar reference to which debbuging information is appended

transcript -- scalar reference to which transcript information is appended

affected_bugs -- hashref which is updated with bugs affected by this function

Functions which should (probably) append to the .log file take the following options:

requester -- Email address of the individual who requested the change

request_addr -- Address to which the request was sent

request_nn -- Name of queue file which caused this request

request_msgid -- Message id of message which caused this request

location -- Optional location; currently ignored but may be supported in the future for updating archived bugs upon archival

message -- The original message which caused the action to be taken

append_log -- Whether or not to append information to the log.

append_log (for most functions) is a special option. When set to false, no appending to the log is done at all. When it is not present, the above information is faked, and appended to the log file. When it is true, the above options must be present, and their values are used.
