Hook::Modular - Making pluggable applications easy
version 1.101050
In some_config.yaml
global:
log:
level: error
cache:
base: /tmp/test-hook-modular
# plugin_namespace: My::Test::Plugin
plugins:
- module: Some::Printer
config:
indent: 4
indent_char: '*'
text: 'this is some printer'
here is the plugin:
package My::Test::Plugin::Some::Printer;
use warnings;
use strict;
use parent 'Hook::Modular::Plugin';
sub register {
my ($self, $context) = @_;
$context->register_hook($self,
'output.print' => $self->can('do_print'));
}
sub do_print { ... }
And this is some_app.pl
use parent 'Hook::Modular';
use constant PLUGIN_NAMESPACE => 'My::Test::Plugin';
sub run {
my $self = shift;
$self->SUPER::run(@_);
...
$self->run_hook('output.print', ...);
...
}
main->bootstrap(config => $config_filename);
But also see Hook::Modular::Builder for a domain-specific language to build a configuration.
Hook::Modular makes writing pluggable applications easy. Use a config file to specify which plugins you want and to pass options to those plugins. The program to support those plugin then subclasses Hook::Modular and bootstraps itself. This causes the plugins to be loaded and registered. This gives each plugin the chance to register callbacks for any or all hooks the program offers. The program then runs the hooks in the order it desires. Each time a hook is run, all the callbacks the plugins have registered with this particular hook are run in order.
Hook::Modular does more than just load and call plugins, however. It also supports the following concepts:
Plugins can cache their settings. Cached items can also expire after a given time.
Hook::Lexwrap can go over your config file and encrypt any passwords it finds
(as determined by the key password). It will then rewrite the config file
and make a backup of the original file. Encrypting and rewriting is turned off
by default, but subclasses can enable it, or you can enable it from a config
file itself.
At the moment, encrypting is rather basic: The passwords are only turned into base64.
Hook::Modular supports rule-based dispatch of plugins.
my $obj = Hook::Modular->new(config => $config_file_name);
Creates a new object and initializes it. The arguments are passed as a named hash. Valid argument keys:
configReads or sets the global configuration.
If the value is a simple string, it is interpreted as a filename. If the file
is readable, it is loaded as YAML. If the filename is -, the configuration
is read from STDIN.
If the value is a scalar reference, the dereferenced value is assumed to be YAML and is loaded.
If the value is a hash reference, the configuration is cloned from that hash reference.
Also see Hook::Modular::Builder for a domain-specific language to build a configuration.
The constructor also sets the application-wide configuration, which can be
accessed using conf(), to the global part of the configuration data that
has been passed to the constructor. This configuration is then augmented in
various ways:
log level my $level = $self->conf->{log}{level}
The log level is set to debug, if it hasn't been set by the configuration
data already.
In the config file, you can specify it this way:
global:
log:
level: info
log encoding my $encoding = $self->conf->{log}{encoding}
The log encoding is set to the current terminal's encoding, if it hasn't been set by the configuration data already.
In the config file, you can specify it this way:
global:
log:
level: info
plugin_namespace my $ns = $self->conf->{plugin_namespace};
The default plugin namespace is set to whatever the class defines as the
PLUGIN_NAMESPACE constant, if the configuration data hasn't set it already.
See the documentation of PLUGIN_NAMESPACE for details.
should_rewrite_config my $should_rewrite_config = $self->conf->{should_rewrite_config};
If the configuration data hasn't set it already to either 0 or 1, config file
rewriting is turned off. See the documentation of SHOULD_REWRITE_CONFIG for
details.
rule_namespacesIf the config file specifies any rule namespaces, they are added to the
default rule namespaces. See the documentation of add_to_rule_namespaces()
for details.
my $context = $self->context; $self->set_context($context);
Gets and sets (respectively) the global context. It is singular; each program has only one context. This can be used to communicate between the plugins.
my %conf = $self->conf;
my $plugin_path = $self->conf->{plugin_path} || [];
$self->conf->{log}{level} = 'debug';
Returns a hash that has the application-wide configuration. It is set during
new() from the global section of the configuration data and augmented
with various other settings.
package My::TestApp; use parent 'Hook::Modular'; use constant PLUGIN_NAMESPACE => 'My::Test::Plugin';
A constant that specifies the namespace that is prepended to plugin names
found in the configuration. Defaults to Hook::Modular::Plugin. Subclasses
can and probably should override this value. For example, if the plugin
namespace is set to My::Test::Plugin and the config file specifies a plugin
with the name Some::Printer, we will try to load
My:::Test::Plugin::Some::Printer.
In the config file, you can specify it this way:
global:
plugin_namespace: My::Test::Plugin
package My::TestApp; use parent 'Hook::Modular'; use constant SHOULD_REWRITE_CONFIG => 1;
Hook::Modular can rewrite your config file, for example, to turn passwords into encrypted forms so they are not easily readable in the plain text. This behaviour is turned off by default, but the config file, or a subclass of Hook::Modular, can turn it on. In a config file, specify it this way:
In the config file, you can specify it this way:
global:
should_rewrite_config: 1
$self->add_to_rule_namespaces(
qw/Some::Rule::Namespace Other::Rule::Namespace/);
Hook::Modular supports multiple rule namespace, that is, package prefixes that are used when looking for rule classes. The reason to allow multiple rule namespace is that Hook::Modular has some rules, and your subclass might well define its own rules, so Hook::Modular needs to know which package it might find rules in.
There is only one list of rule namespace per program. To add to rule
namespaces in your program, don't access conf() directly, but use the
proper class methods to do so: add_to_rule_namespaces() and
rule_namespaces().
You can add to rule namespaces using the config file like this:
global:
rule_namespaces:
- Some::Thing::Rule
- Other::Thing::Rule
or, if you only want to add one rule namespace:
global:
rule_namespaces: Some::Thing::Rule
my @ns = $self->rule_namespaces;
Returns the list of rule namespaces. See the documentation of
add_to_rule_namespaces for details.
