Shell::GetEnv::Dumper(User Contributed Perl DocumentatShell::GetEnv::Dumper(3) NAME Shell::GetEnv::Dumper - store and retrieve environment SYNOPSIS # write environment to file perl /path/to/Shell/GetEnv/Dumper.pm file # read environment from file use Shell::GetEnv::Dumper; $envs = Shell::GetEnv::Dumper::read_envs( $filename ); DESCRIPTION Shell::GetEnv::Dumper is used by Shell::GetEnv to store and retrieve a subprocess's environment. It uses Storable to write and read the %ENV hash from and to disk. Writing the environment is done from within the subshell by executing this module as a Perl script. The command line may be formed as follows: # this loads the path to the module in %INC. use Shell::GetEnv::Dumper; # this invokes the module directly, using the Perl which was # used to invoke the parent process. It uses the fact that we # use()'d Shell::GetEnv::Dumper and Perl stored the absolute path # to it in %INC; $cmd = qq{$^X '$INC{'Shell/GetEnv/Dumper.pm'}' $filename}; Retrieving the environment is done using the read_envs() function. Note that nothing is exportable from this module. FUNCTIONS write_envs This function should never be invoked directly. It is called when this module is executed as a standalone Perl script. It expects that $ARGV[0] contains the name of the file to which the environment is to be written. It exits with an error message and non-successful exit status if there is an error. read_envs $envs = Shell::GetEnv::Dumper::read_envs( $filename ); Extract the environment from the given file. The environment must have been written using write_envs().
