use PPM::XML::PPMConfig; $p = new PPM::XML::Parser( Style => 'Objects', Pkg => 'PPM::XML::PPMConfig' ); ... =head1 DESCRIPTION This module provides a set of classes for parsing PPM configuration files using the C module. All of the elements unique to a PPM configuration file are derived from C. There are also several classes rebuilt here which are derived from elements in C as we can include a PPD file within our own INSTPPD element. =head1 MAJOR ELEMENTS =head2 PPMCONFIG Defines a PPM configuration file. The root of a PPMConfig document is B a PPMCONFIG element. =head2 PACKAGE Child of PPMCONFIG, used to describe a Perl Package which has already been installed. Multiple instances are valid. The PACKAGE element allows for the following attributes: =over 4 =item NAME Name of the package as given in it's PPD =back =head1 MINOR ELEMENTS =head2 PPMVER Child of PPMCONFIG, used to state the version of PPM for which this configuration file is valid. A single instance should be present. =head2 PLATFORM Child of PPMCONFIG, used to specify the platform of the target machine. A single instance should be present. The PLATFORM element allows for the following attributes: =over 4 =item OSVALUE Description of the local operating system as defined in the Config.pm file under 'osname'. =item OSVERSION Version of the local operating system. =item CPU Description of the CPU in the local system. The following list of possible values was taken from the OSD Specification: x86 mips alpha ppc sparc 680x0 =item LANGUAGE Description of the language used on the local system as specified by the language codes in ISO 639. =back =head2 REPOSITORY Child of PPMCONFIG, used to specify a repository where Perl Packages can be found. Multiple instances are valid. The REPOSITORY element allows for the following attributes: =over 4 =item NAME Name by which the repository will be known (e.g. "ActiveState"). =item LOCATION An URL or directory where the repository can be found. =item USERNAME Optional username for a repository requiring authenticated connection. =item PASSWORD Optional password for a repository requiring authenticated connection. =item SUMMARYFILE Optional package summary filename. If this file exists on the repository, its contents can be retrieved using PPM::RepositorySummary(). The contents are not strictly enforced by PPM.pm, however ppm.pl expects this to be a file with the following format (for display with the 'summary' command): Agent [2.91]: supplies agentspace methods for perl5. Apache-OutputChain [0.06]: chain stacked Perl handlers [etc.] =back =head2 OPTIONS Child of PPMCONFIG, used to specify the current configuration options for PPM. A single instance should be present. The OPTIONS element allows for the following attributes: =over 4 =item IGNORECASE Sets case-sensitive searching. Can be either '1' or '0'. =item CLEAN Sets removal of temporarily files. Can be either '1' or '0'. =item CONFIRM Sets confirmation of all installs/removals/upgrades. Can be either '1' or '0'. =item BUILDDIR Directory in which packages will be unpacked before their installation. =item ROOT Directory under which packages should be installed on the local system. =item TRACE Level of tracing (0 is no tracing, 4 is max tracing). =item TRACEFILE File to which trace information will be written. =item VERBOSE Controls whether query and search results are verbose (1 == verbose, 0 == no). =back =head2 PPMPRECIOUS Child of PPMCONFIG, used to specify the modules which PPM itself is dependant upon. A single instance should be present. =head2 LOCATION Child of PACKAGE, used to specify locations at which to search for updated versions of the PPD file for this package. Its value can be either a directory or an Internet address. A single instance should be present. =head2 INSTDATE Child of PACKAGE, used to specify the date on which the Perl Package was installed. A single instance should be present. =head2 INSTROOT Child of PACKAGE, used to specify the root directory that the Perl Package was installed into. A single instance should be present. =head2 INSTPACKLIST Child of PACKAGE, used to specify a reference to the packlist for this Perl Package; a file containing a list of all of the files which were installed. A single instance should be present. =head2 INSTPPD Child of PACKAGE, used to hold a copy of the PPD from which Perl Packages were installed. Multiple instances are valid. =head1 DOCUMENT TYPE DEFINITION The DTD for PPMConfig documents is available from the ActiveState website and the latest version can be found at: http://www.ActiveState.com/PPM/DTD/ppmconfig.dtd This revision of the C module implements the following DTD: =head1 SAMPLE PPMConfig FILE The following is a sample PPMConfig file. Note that this may B be a current description of this module and is for sample purposes only. 1,0,0,0 PPM;libnet;Archive-Tar;Compress-Zlib;libwww-perl g:/packages c:/perllib/lib/site/MSWin32-x86/auto/AtExit/.packlist c:/perllib Sun Mar 8 02:56:31 1998 AtExit Register a subroutine to be invoked at program -exit time. Brad Appleton (Brad_Appleton-GBDA001@email.mot.com) =head1 KNOWN BUGS/ISSUES Elements which are required to be empty (e.g. REPOSITORY) are not enforced as such. Notations above about elements for which "only one instance" or "multiple instances" are valid are not enforced; this primarily a guideline for generating your own PPD files. Currently, this module creates new classes within it's own namespace for all of the PPD elements which can be contained within the INSTPPD element. A suitable method for importing the entire PPM::XML::PPD:: namespace should be found in order to make this cleaner. =head1 AUTHORS Graham TerMarsch Murray Nesbitt Dick Hardt =head1 HISTORY v0.1 - Initial release =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L . =cut
