NAME

SVN::Access::Group - Object representing a SVN Access file group

SYNOPSIS

 use SVN::Access;
 
 my $acl = SVN::Access->new(acl_file => '/usr/local/svn/conf/badnews_svn_access.conf');

 # add a member to all groups.
 foreach my $group ($acl->groups) {
     $group->add_member("peter");
 }

DESCRIPTION

Object wrapper around the groups portion of the SVN access control file. Groups usually look like...

[groups] everyone = harry, sally, joe, frank, sally, jane

METHODS

new

the constructor, takes anything you want in hash form but im looking for members (arrayref), and the name of the group. the meat and potatoes if you will.

Example:

  my $group = SVN::Access::Group->new(
      members   => [qw/ray bob elle/],
      name      => "Carpenters",
  );

  $group->add_member("janette");

members

returns a list of the group's members.

Example:

  my @members = $group->members;

remove_member

removes a member from the group.

Example:

  $group->remove_member("ray");

add_member

adds a member to the group. returns an error string for some reason. this is inconsistent with the rest of the interface, so expect either other methods to start having this, or expect this functionality to go away.

Example:

  print $group->add_member("becky");
  # should print "Member becky successfully added to Carpenters\n"

  print $group->add_member("janette"):
  # should print "Member janette already in group Carpenters\n"

member_exists

returns true (the member's name) if the member exists.

Example:

  if ($group->member_exists("ray")) {
      print "i thought i fired him...\n";
      $group->remove_member("ray"); # carpenters don't need SVN access anyway
  }

name

light accessor method which returns the group's name.
