NAME System::Wrapper - Class-wrapped system calls and qx operator VERSION This document describes System::Wrapper version 0.0.1 SYNOPSIS use System::Wrapper; my $command = System::Wrapper->new(); $command->interpreter( 'perl'); $command->executable( 'program.pl'); $command->arguments( [ 'first', {second_a => 2, second_b => 2}, {third => [1,2,3]} ] ); $command->input( \@ARGV ); $command->output( { '--output' => 'file'}, q{>} => 'file2' ); $command->path( [$command->path, q{.}] ); $command->capture = 1; $command->verbose = 1; print $command->command; $command->run; DESCRIPTION This module wraps perl's C<system> call and c<qx> operator in an object-oriented interface. It provides utility methods for accomplishing things that are not very simple in C<system> and C<qx>. This includes in-situ I/O and call success via temporary filenames, C<system> call progress estimation, finding whether the executable and-or interpreter are on the path, validating filenames, cross-platform output operators and argument type specification. This module can be used as a generic wrapper around C<system> and C<qx>, or as a base class for building interfaces to utilities not available to C<perl> itself. INTERFACE CLASS METHODS new(%args) my %args = ( interpreter => undef, # optional: string executable => undef, # required: string arguments => undef, # optional: any nested structure of hashes, # arrays or scalar references input => undef, # optional: scalar or array reference output => undef, # optional: hash reference of form { spec => file } # eg: { '>' => 'out' } or { '--output' => 'out' } capture => undef, # optional: return stdout, instead of exit code, # via $self->run path => [ grep $_, File::Spec->path, q{.} ] # required: path of directories on which to look for # interpreter and executable programs ); my $command = System::Wrapper->new(%args); SELECTOR METHODS new interpreter executable arguments input output path capture command run _program_in_path _canonical _flatten DESTROY server_uri() server_uri($uri) Default $uri: <http://api.wordnik.com/api-v3> api_key() api_key($key) Required $key: Your API key, which can be requested at <http://api.wordnik.com/signup/>. version() version($version) Default $version: *3*. Only API version 3 (the latest) is currently supported. format() format($format) Default $format: *json*. Other accepted formats are *xml* and *perl*. cache() cache($cache) Default $cache: *10*. Number of requests to cache. Deletes the oldest request if cache fills up. debug() debug($debug) Default $debug: *0*. Don't sent GET requests to Wordnik. Return the actual request as a string. OBJECT METHODS word($word, %args) This returns the word you requested, assuming it is found in our corpus. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#words>. $word is the word to look up. %args accepts: Default "useSuggest": *false*. Return an array of suggestions, if available. Default "literal": *true*. Return non-literal matches. If the suggester is enabled, you can tell it to return the best match with "useSuggest=true" and "literal=false". phrases($word, %args) You can fetch interesting bi-gram phrases containing a word. The "mi" and "wlmi" elements refer to "mutual information" and "weighted mutual information" and will be explained in detail via future blog post. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#phrases>. $word is the word to look up. %args accepts: Default "count": *5*. Specify the number of results returned. definitions($word, %args) Definitions for words are available from Wordnik's keying of the Century Dictionary and parse of the Webster GCIDE. The Dictionary Model XSD is available in <http://github.com/wordnik/api-examples/blob/master/docs/dictionary. xsd> in GitHub. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#definitions>. $word is the word to look up. %args accepts: Default "count": *5*. Specify the number of results returned. Default "partOfSpeech": *empty*. Specify one or many part-of-speech types for which to return definitions. Pass multiple types as an array reference. The available partOfSpeech values are: [noun, verb, adjective, adverb, idiom, article, abbreviation, preposition, prefix, interjection, suffix] examples($word) You can retrieve 5 example sentences for a words in Wordnik's alpha corpus. Each example contains the source document and a source URL, if it exists. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#examples>. $word is the word to look up. related($word, %args) You retrieve related words for a particular word. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#relateds>. $word is the word to look up. %args accepts: Default "type": *empty*. Return one or many relationship types. Pass multiple types as an array reference. The available type values are: [synonym, antonym, form, equivalent, hyponym, variant] frequency($word) You can see how common particular words occur in Wordnik's alpha corpus, ordered by year. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#freq>. $word is the word to look up. punctuationFactor($word) You can see how common particular words are used with punctuation. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#punc>. $word is the word to look up. suggest($word, %args) The autocomplete service gives you the opportunity to take a word fragment (start of a word) and show what other words start with the same letters. The results are based on corpus frequency, not static word lists, so you have access to more dynamic words in the language. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#auto>. $word is the word to look up. %args accepts: Default "count": *5*. Specify the number of results returned. Default "startAt": *0*. You can also specify the starting index for the results returned. This allows you to paginate through the matching values. wordoftheday You can fetch Wordnik's word-of-the day which contains definitions and example sentences. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#wotd>. randomWord(%args) You can fetch a random word from the Alpha Corpus. See <http://docs.wordnik.com/api/methods#random>. %args accepts: Default "hasDictionaryDef": *true*. You can ask the API to return only words where there is a definition available. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Build.PL Build Build test Build install or perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DIAGNOSTICS "Can't access '$key' field in class $class" Private or inexistent member variable. "Invalid argument key or value: '$type'" Inexistent query parameter, or wrong value passed to existing parameter. "Parameter 'partOfSpeech' requires a reference to an array" partOfSpeech => [qw/.../]. "Parameter 'type' requires a reference to an array" type => [qw/.../]. "The operation you requested requires JSON to be installed" perl -MCPAN -e 'install JSON'. "Unsupported api format: '$format'" Supported formats are 'perl', 'json', 'xml'. "Unsupported api version: '$version'" The only API version supported by this module is 3. CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT System::Wrapper requires no configuration files or environment variables. DEPENDENCIES This module requires the core modules "Test::More", "version" and "Carp", and "LWP::UserAgent" from "CPAN". Additionally, it recommends-requires "JSON" from "CPAN" for getting data in Perl data structures. INCOMPATIBILITIES None reported. BUGS AND LIMITATIONS No bugs have been reported. Response headers are not checked for 404s, etc. Likewise, response data is not post-processed in any way, other than optionally being parsed from "JSON" to "Perl" data structures. Data::Dumper should be of help there. Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-www-wordnik-api@rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at <http://rt.cpan.org>. TODO Error checking Implement basic HTTP error checking on response headers. Post-processing Add filtering methods on response data.
