NAME

Config::Model::Backend::ShellVar - Read and write config as a "SHELLVAR" data structure

VERSION

version 2.149

SYNOPSIS

 use Config::Model;

 my $model = Config::Model->new;
 $model->create_config_class (
    name    => "MyClass",
    element => [ 
        [qw/foo bar/] => {qw/type leaf value_type string/}
    ],

   rw_config  => {
     backend => 'ShellVar',
     config_dir => '/tmp',
     file  => 'foo.conf',
     auto_create => 1,
   }
 );

 my $inst = $model->instance(root_class_name => 'MyClass' );
 my $root = $inst->config_root ;

 $root->load('foo=FOO1 bar=BAR1' );

 $inst->write_back ;

File "foo.conf" now contains:

 ## This file was written by Config::Model
 ## You may modify the content of this file. Configuration 
 ## modifications will be preserved. Modifications in
 ## comments may be mangled.
 ##
 foo="FOO1"

 bar="BAR1"

DESCRIPTION

This module is used directly by Config::Model to read or write the content of a configuration tree written with "SHELLVAR" syntax in "Config::Model" configuration tree.

Note that undefined values are skipped for list element. I.e. if a list element contains "('a',undef,'b')", the data structure contains 'a','b'.
