NAME

Verity::Collection - interface to a local Verity collection.

SYNOPSIS

  use Verity::Collection;

  my $v = Verity::Collection->new(collection => '/foo/bar/baz',
                                  binaries => '/verity/bin');
  

DESCRIPTION

This module assumes that you have a local Verity collection; it's intended to interface to Verity through the local Unix system using mkvdk and rcvdk. At some point in the future it may use XS under the hood to speak to the Verity developers' toolkit, but not for now.

METHODS

new(collection => $dir, binaries => $dir, verbose => [0|1], warn_on_error => [0|1])

This method makes a new Verity::Collection object in the collection dir using the binaries dir to find Verity tools.

If "verbose" is turned on you'll see the command lines used to talk to Verity. If "warn_on_error" is on you'll get warnings when you do something that won't work.

create

This method makes a new collection on the filesystem.

insert (%args)

This method adds new data to the collection. Options are:

• mode - defaults to '', specify 'bulk' if this is a bulk file

• file - full path of the file to insert into the collection

purge

This method purges all data from the collection. It does *not* delete the collection. See delete() for that.

delete

This method deletes the collection itself on disk.

reindex

This method updates the indexes in the collection.

TODO

Write some code. Write some tests.
