NAME Perinci::Examples - Various examples of Rinci metadata VERSION This document describes version 0.825 of Perinci::Examples (from Perl distribution Perinci-Examples), released on 2024-07-17. DESCRIPTION This distribution contains an odd mix of various functions, variables, and other code entities, along with their Rinci metadata. Mostly used for testing Rinci specification and the various Perinci modules. Example scripts are put in a separate distribution (see Perinci::Examples::Bin) to make dependencies for this distribution minimal (e.g. not depending on Perinci::CmdLine::Any) since this example module(s) are usually used in the tests of other modules. A sample description verbatim line2 Another paragraph with *bold*, *italic* text. FUNCTIONS arg_default Usage: arg_default(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Demonstrate argument default value from default and/or schema. Default value can be specified in the "default" property of argument specification, e.g.: args => { arg1 => { schema=>'str', default=>'blah' }, }, or in the "default" clause of the argument's schema, e.g.: args => { arg1 => { schema=>['str', default=>'blah'] }, }, or even both. The "default" property in argument specification takes precedence. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a => *int* No defaults. * b => *int* (default: 2) Default from "default" property. * c => *int* (default: 3) Default from schema. * d => *int* (default: 4) Default from "default" property as well as schema. "Default" property overrides default value from schema. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) args_as_array Usage: args_as_array($a0, $a1, $a2) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] This function's metadata sets "args_as" property to "array". This means it wants to accept argument as an array, like a regular Perl subroutine accepting positional arguments in @_. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * $a0 => *str* (No description) * $a1 => *str* (No description) * $a2 => *str* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) args_as_arrayref Usage: args_as_arrayref([$a0, $a1, $a2]) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] This function's metadata sets "args_as" property to "arrayref". This is just like "array", except the whole argument list is passed in $_[0]. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * $a0 => *str* (No description) * $a1 => *str* (No description) * $a2 => *str* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) args_as_hashref Usage: args_as_hashref(\%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] This function's metadata sets "args_as" property to "hashref". This is just like "hash", except the whole argument hash is passed in $_[0]. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a0 => *str* (No description) * a1 => *str* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) binary Usage: binary(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Accept and send binary data. This function sets its argument's schema type as "buf" which indicates the argument accepts binary data. Likewise it also sets its result's schema type as "buf" which says that function will return binary data. The function just returns its argument. Note that since the metadata also contains null ("\0") in the "default" property of the argument specification, the metadata is also not JSON-safe. To pass binary data over JSON/Riap, you can use Riap version 1.2 and encode the argument with ":base64" suffix, e.g.: $res = Perinci::Access->new->request( call => "http://example.com/api/Perinci/Examples/binary", {v=>1.2, args=>{"data:base64"=>"/wA="}}); # send "\xff\0" Without "v=>1.2", encoded argument won't be decoded by the server. To pass binary data on the command-line, you can use "--ARG-base64" if the command-line library provides it. To receive binary result over JSON/Riap, you can use Riap version 1.2 which will automatically encode binary data with base64 so it is safe when transformed as JSON. The client library will also decode the encoded result back to the original, so the whole process is transparent to you: $res = Perinci::Access->new->request( call => "http://example.com/api/Perinci/Examples/binary", {v=>1.2}); # => [200,"OK","\0\0\0",{}] This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * data => *buf* (default: "\0\0\0") (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx).

Return value: (any) comment_fruit Usage: comment_fruit(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Comment on a fruit. This function demonstrate argument's "examples" property. It can be used to show choices (e.g. in argument completion) but does not require that value be one of the examples only. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * fruit* => *str* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) completion Usage: completion(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Do nothing, return args. This function is used to test argument completion. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a1 => *array[str]* Array of strings, where the string has "in" schema clause. Completion library can perhaps complete from the "in" value and remember completed items when command-line option is repeated, e.g. in: --a1 <tab> it will complete from any "in" value, but in: --a1 apple --a1 <tab> it can exclude "apple" from the completion candidate. Currently the completion library Perinci::Sub::Complete does not do this though. Perhaps there can be an option to toggle this behavior. * a2 => *array[str]* Array with element_completion routine that generate random letter. * a3 => *array[str]* Array with element_completion routine that dies. See also "s3". * arg0 => *any* Argument without any schema. * f0 => *float* Float with just "float" schema defined. * f1 => *float* Float with xmin/xmax on the schema. A completion library can attempt to provide some possible and incremental completion (e.g. if word is currently at one decimal digit like 1.2, it can provide completion of 1.20 .. 1.29). * h1 => *hash* Hash with "keys" and "allowed_keys" schema clauses and "element_completion" property. * h2 => *hash* Hash with "element_completion" as well as "index_completion" properties. * i0 => *int* Integer with just "int" schema defined. * i1 => *int* Integer with min/xmax on the schema. A completion library (like Perinci::Sub::Complete) can generate a list of completion from the low end to the high end of the range, as long as it is not too long. * i2 => *int* Integer with large range min/max on the schema. Unlike in "i1", a completion library probably won't generate a number sequence for this argument because they are considered too long (1000+ items). * s1 => *str* String with possible values in "in" schema clause. * s1b => *str* String with possible values in "in" schema clause, contains special characters. This argument is intended to test how special characters are escaped. * s1c => *str* String with examples in schema. * s1d => *str* String with examples in argument spec. * s2 => *str* String with completion routine that generate random letter. * s3 => *str* String with completion routine that dies. Completion should not display error (except perhaps under debugging). It should just provide no completion. Returns an enveloped result (an array).

Return value: (any) noop Usage: noop(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Do nothing, return original argument. Will also return argument passed to it. This function is also marked as "pure", meaning it will not cause any side effects. Pure functions are safe to call directly in a transaction (without going through the transaction manager) or during dry-run mode. This function is not exported by default, but exportable. This function is pure (produce no side effects). Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * arg => *any* Argument. Returns an enveloped result (an array).

This function is also marked as "pure", meaning it will not cause any side effects. Pure functions are safe to call directly in a transaction (without going through the transaction manager) or during dry-run mode. This function is not exported. This function is pure (produce no side effects). Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a => *any* Argument. * b => *any* Argument. * c => *any* Argument. * d => *any* Argument. * e => *any* Argument. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) result_naked Usage: result_naked(%args) -> any This function's metadata sets "result_naked" to true. This means function returns just the value (e.g. 42) and not with envelope (e.g. "[200,"OK",42]"). However, when served over network Riap protocol, the function wrapper Perinci::Sub::Wrapper can generate an envelope for the result, so the wrapped function wil still return "[200,"OK",42]". This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a0 => *str* (No description) * a1 => *str* (No description) Return value: (any) return_args Usage: return_args(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Return arguments.

Return value: (any) sum Usage: sum(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Sum numbers in array. Examples: * First example: sum(array => [1, 2, 3]); # -> [200, "OK", 6, {}] * Second example, using argv: sum(array => [1.1, 2.1, 3.1], round => 1); # -> [200, "OK", 6, {}] * Third example, invalid arguments: sum(array => ["a"]); Result: [ 400, "Argument 'array' fails validation: \@[0]: Not of type decimal number", undef, {}, ] This function can be used to test passing nonscalar (array) arguments. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * array* => *array[float]* Array. * round => *bool* (default: 0) Whether to round result to integer. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) undescribed_args Usage: undescribed_args(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] This function has several undescribed args. Originally added to see how peri-func-usage or Perinci::To::Text will display the usage or documentation for this function. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * arg1 => *any* (No description) * arg2 => *any* (No description) * arg3 => *any* (No description) * arg4 => *any* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) validate_args Usage: validate_args(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Does nothing, only here to test # VALIDATE_ARGS. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * a => *int* (No description) * b => *str* (No description) * h1 => *hash* (No description) Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via: % prove -l If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
