  # extension method
  # load App::CLI::Plugin::Foo,  MyApp::Plugin::Bar
  __PACKAGE__->load_plugins(qw(Foo +MyApp::Plugin::Bar));
  
  # extension method
  __PACKAGE__->config( name => "kurt" );

  # MyApp/Hello.pm
  package MyApp::Hello;
  
  use strict;
  use base qw(App::CLI::Command);
  use constant options => ("age=i" => "age");
  
  sub run {
  
      my($self, @args) = @_;
      # config - App::CLI::Extension extension method(App::CLI::Extension::Component::Config)
      print "Hello! my name is " . $self->config->{name} . "\n";
      print "age is " . "$self->{age}\n";
  }
  
  # myapp

  use MyApp;
  
  MyApp->dispatch;
  
  # execute
  [kurt@localhost ~] myapp hello --age=27
  Hello! my name is kurt
  age is 27

DESCRIPTION

The expansion module which added plug in, initial setting mechanism to App::CLI

SETUP

If you define initialization and initialization of each plug-in

PRERUN

If you want the process to run before you run something in the main processing

RUN

Process to define the main(require). however, $self->finished non-zero if not executed

POSTRUN

After the run method to execute. however, $self->finished non-zero if not executed

FINISH

At the end of all processing

FAIL

setup/prerun/run/postrun/finish processing to be executed if an exception occurs somewhere in the phase error

$self->e is the App::CLI::Extension::Exception or Error::Simple instance is set

METHOD

      my($self, @args) = @_;
      my $file = "/path/to/file";
      open my $fh, "< $file" or $self->throw("can not open file:$file");
      while ( my $line = <$fh> ) {
          chomp $line;
          print "$line\n";
      }
      close $fh;

  # transitions fail phase method
  sub fail {
  
      my($self, @args) = @_;
      # e is App:CLI::Extension::Exception instance
      printf "ERROR: %s", $self->e;
      printf "STACKTRACE: %s", $self->e->stacktrace;
  }
  
  # myapp
  #!/usr/bin/perl
  
  use strict;
  use MyApp;
  
  MyApp->dispatch;
  
  # execute
  [kurt@localhost ~] myapp hello
  ERROR: can not open file:/path/to/file at lib/MyApp/Throw.pm line 10.
  STACKTRACE: can not open file:/path/to/file at lib/MyApp/Throw.pm line 10

when you run throw method, App::CLI::Extension::Exception instance that $self->e is set to.

App::CLI::Extension::Exception is the Error::Simple is inherited. refer to the to documentation of Error

throw method without running CORE::die if you run the $self->e is the Error::Simple instance will be set

e

App::CLI::Extension::Exception or Error::Simple instance. There is a ready to use, fail phase only

RUN PHASE METHOD

setup

prerun

postrun

finish

program last phase. By default, the exit will be executed automatically, exit if you do not want the APPCLI_NON_EXIT environ valiable how do I set the (value is whatever)

fail

error phase. default exit value is 255. if you want to change exit_value, see exit_value manual
