SYNOPSIS
use Test::AutoBuild::Lib;
my \@sorted_modules = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::sort_modules(\@modules);
my \%packages = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::package_snapshot($package_types);
my \%newpackages = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::new_packages(\%before, \%after);
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_size($bytes);
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_date($seconds);
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_time($seconds);
DESCRIPTION
The Test::AutoBuild::Lib module provides a library of routines that are
shared across many different modules.
METHODS
my %packages = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::new_packages(\%before, \%after);
Compares the sets of packages defined by the "before" and "after"
package snapshots. The returned hash ref will have entries for any
files in "after", but not in "before", or any files which were
modified between "before" and "after" snapshots.
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_date($seconds);
Formats the time specified in the "seconds" parameter to follow the
style "Wed Jan 14 2004 21:45:23 UTC".
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_time($seconds);
Formats an interval in seconds for friendly viewing according to
the style "2h 27m 12s" - ie 2 hours, 27 minutes and 12 seconds.
my $string = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::pretty_size($bytes);
Formats the size specified in the "bytes" parameter for friendly
viewing. If the number of bytes is > 1024x1024 then it formats in
MB, with 2 decimal places. Else if the number of bytes is > 1024 it
formats in kb with 2 decimal places. Otherwise it just formats as
bytes.
my $status = Test::AutoBuild::Lib::run($comnand, \%env);
Executes the program specified in the "command" argument. The
returned value is the output of the commands standard output
stream. Prior to running the command, the environment variables
specified in the "env" parameter are set. This environment is
modified locally, so the changes are only in effect for the
duration of this method.
($config, $fh, $error) =
Test::AutoBuild::Lib::load_template_config($file, [\%vars])
This method loads the content of the configuration file $file,
passes it through the Template module, and then creates an instance
of the Config::Record module. The second optiona %vars parameter is
a hash reference containing a set of variables which will be passed
through to the templating engine. A 3 element list is returned, the
first element containing the Config::Record object, the second a
scalar containing the post-processed configuration file, the last
containing any error message generated.
