Test2::Tools::GenTemp#

Tool for generating a populated temp directory.

DESCRIPTION#

This exports a tool that helps you make a temporary directory, nested directories and text files within.

SYNOPSIS#

use Test2::Tools::GenTemp qw/gen_temp/;

my $dir = gen_temp(
    a_file => "Contents of a_file",
    a_dir  => {
        'a_file' => 'Contents of a_dir/afile',
        a_nested_dir => { ... },
    },
    ...
);

done_testing;

EXPORTS#

All subs are exported by default.

  • gen_temp(file => ‘content’, subdir => [ sub_dir_file => ‘content’, …], …)

  • gen_temp(-tempdir => \@TEMPDIR_ARGS, file => ‘content’, subdir => [ sub_dir_file => ‘content’, …], …)

    This will generate a new temporary directory with all the files and subdirs you specify, recursively. The initial temp directory is created using File::Temp::tempdir(), you may pass arguments to tempdir using the -tempdir => [...] argument.
