=head1 NAME

CipUX - Common CipUX functions

=head1 VERSION

version 3.4.0.13

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use CipUX;

  my $cipux = $CipUX->new();

  my $max = $cipux->max(5,6);

Or use as base class:

  use base(CipUX);

  my $max = $self->max(5,6);


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Provides functions common to all CipUX classes and scripts.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 new

Constructor

  my $cipux = CipUX->new();

=head1 SUBROUTINES/METHODS

The following functions will be exported by CipUX.

=head2 get_linewidth

Returns the CipUX line width.

=head2 perr

Prints an exception that variable name VARNAME was not
used in subroutine API. This is used to discover internal
programming errors.

  $cipux->perr('<NAME OF PARAMETER>');
  $cipux->perr('<NAME OF PARAMETER>','<LINE NUMBER>');

Example:

  $cipux->perr('parameter_x');
  $cipux->perr('parameter_x', 98);

=head2 exc

Prints a CipUX default exception on STDERR and exits.

 $self->exc({nr=>$nr, value=>$value, msg=>$msg });

=head2 config

Central function to retrieve config space.

  my ($x_hr, $y_hr, $z_hr) = $self->config({config_ar=>$config_ar});

Local <NAME>_config subroutine should be use to fill $config_ar

  Example:

  sub task_config {
      my $config_ar = [];
      push @{$config_ar}, '/home/dummmy/cipux-task.conf';
      my ($x_hr, $y_hr, $z_hr) =
        $self->config({config_ar=>$config_ar});
      return ($x_hr, $y_hr, $z_hr);
  }

=head2 source

Incorporates a config file.

=head2 store_mattrvalue

Helper function for multiple getopt parameter with values.

=head2 store_attrvalue

Helper function for single getopt parameter with value.

=head2 homedir

This is an auxiliary method replacing ~ with $ENV{HGOME}.

B<Syntax:>

 my $file1  =  $common->homedir($file2);

B<Example:>

 if $file1  =  ~/.cipux/cipux-object.conf
 and $ENV{HOME} = /root
 then file2 =  /root/.cipux/cipux-object.conf

=head2 lf

Laundering LDAP filter.

=head2 lp

Laundering passwords.

=head2 li

Laundering integer values.

=head2 l

Laundering of a scalar

 my $scalar = $self->l($input);

=head2 h

Check if type is hash or hash reference.

 my $hash_hr = $self->a($input_hr);

=head2 a

Check if type is array or array reference.

 my $array_ar = $self->a($input_ar);

=head2 test_cli_option

Executes some basic test on command line option regarding a hash.

=head2 date_time

returns date time format of today

=head2 latin1_to_utf8

Converts latin to UTF-8 encoding.

=head2 login_prompt

Prints a login prompt on STDOUT.

=head2 password_prompt

Prints a password prompt on STDOUT.

=head2 random_password

Calculates and returns a relatively random password.

=head2 hash_password

Calculates and returns a hashed password.

=head2 min

Calculate the minimum of two integer values.

=head2 max

Calculate the maximum of two integer values.

=head2 out

Prints content to STDOUT.


=head2 _merge_array

Helper subroutine for _hash_merge_setup. It uses Array::Unique to return a
merged unique array reference.

=head2 _hash_merge_setup

Perform setup for Hash::Merge. The main change is that Arrays are also merged
with uniq values.

=head2 cfg_ext

Gets all supported extensions from Config::Any and remove non supported
extensions.

=head2 cfg

Query the CipUX config space to load configuration in various formats.

 0. Set cfgbase to "cipux" (+ "-$submodule" if not core module)

 1. Set cfgpaths to...:
    1. /usr/share/cipux/etc/$cfgbase.$ext
    2. /usr/share/cipux/etc/$cfgbase.d/*.$ext
    3. /etc/cipux/$cfgbase.$ext
    4. /etc/cipux/$cfgbase.d/*.$ext
    5. ~/.cipux/$cfgbase.$ext

 2. Possible $ext are: cnf .conf .json .jsn .xml .yml .yaml .ini .pl .perl

 #3. Optionally parse and validate uppercase "$cfgbase_cfg" environment
     variable [fail if validation fails]

 #4. Optionally parse and validate "cfg" commandline option
     [fail if validation fails]

 5. Resolve configfile list as cfgpaths, with "$cfgbase_cfg" and "cfg" appended
    if there

 6. Resolve bootstrap file through parsing and validating "bootstrap" option
    from all available files in cfgpaths, later declaration overriding earlier
    ones

 7. Resolve all options through executing bootstrap file

 #8. Optionally override subset of options through parsing and validating
    environment variables starting with uppercase "$cfgbase_"
    [fail if any validation fails]

 9. Optionally override subset of options through parsing and validating all
    options from all available files in cfgpaths [fail if any validation fails]

Notes about the above:

 * Number with leading "#" are not implemented.

 * config files are "layered", allowing overrides. Personal configfile
   is included last, not first, and more locations are supported.

 #* (subset of) options can be provided through ENV

 #* commandline and environment options are validated as part of parsing

Recommendation:

Even if several formats are supported, that does not mean they are all suited
for this task.

 * Some configuration formats for example are too simple to express the complex
   cipux-task.perl configuration.

 * The CPAN Perl modules used for this configuration space are rather young
   Config::Any 2006 - 2009, Hash::Merge 2001 - 2009  and not every
   configuration file type mixture was tested. As a recommendation, you should
   not mix to many files and formats.

=head2 create_cache_dir_if_not_present

Creates a directory 'cipux' under /var/cache if not present. This is used to
store serialized objects.

=head2 iterate_config_space

Takes a single config file $cfg (can be undef, but must be present) and a
string representing the configuration base $cfgbase. It will then just use $cfg
or it will find out regarding to $cfgbase what files should be considered.

  my $loadcfg_ar = $self->iterate_config_space(
      {
          cfg     => $cfg,
          cfgbase => $cfgbase,
      }
  );

returns a list of all configuration files which should be evaluated.

=head2 evaluate_config_space

Takes a araay ref to a list of configuration files $loadcfg_ar, preferably
cunstructed by iterate_config_space. It also taks a string $cache_dir to the
temporary location of a cache_dir. This value can be empty but not undef and
has to be provided. It also require the $cfgbase string, the "domain" of the
configuration.

It will calculate for every config file the MD5sum for later comparison.

        my $clean = $self->evaluate_config_space(
            {
                loadcfg_ar => $loadcfg_ar,
                cache_dir  => $cache_dir,
                cfgbase    => $cfgbase,
            }
        );

It will return 0 if changed files are found and 1 if no changed files are
found.
