NAME Perinci::Examples - Example modules containing metadata and various example functions VERSION This document describes version 0.22 of Perinci::Examples (from Perl distribution Perinci-Examples), released on 2014-06-18. SYNOPSIS use Perinci::Examples qw(delay); delay(); DESCRIPTION This module and its submodules contain 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) 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(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Demonstrate argument default value from default and/or schema. 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. Return value: Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information. call_gen_array(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Call gen_array(). This is to test nested call (e.g. Log::Any::For::Package). Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * len* => *int* (default: 10) Array length. Return value: Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information. call_randlog(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Call randlog(). This is to test nested call (e.g. Log::Any::For::Package). Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * max_level => *int* (default: 6) Maximum level. * min_level => *int* (default: 1) Minimum level. * n => *int* (default: 10) Number of log messages to produce. Return value: Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).
