If you want to skip the 'make test' step, just hit ENTER
three times. You can configure it later by either re-running
'perl Makefile.PL' or by editting ./t/config.cache
Fair warning: you probably don't want to run 'make test' against a
production Remedy ARS server.

=head1 NAME
lib/ARS/Simple.pm view on Meta::CPAN
=head1 METHODS
=head2 new
Constructor for ARS::Simple. There are three required arguments:
=over 4
=item server
The name (or possibly IP Address) of the Remedy ARSystem server you
wish to connect to.
=item user
The user you wish to connect as (this is often a user with administrator
privilages). Note that while this is a required argument, it may be supplied
via the configuration file to avoid lots of scripts with the user (and password)
in them (less to change, not on display so safer).
=item password
lib/ARS/Simple.pm view on Meta::CPAN
There are a number of optional arguments, they are:
=over 4
=item max_returns
Set a limit on how many items may be returned from certain calls.
Setting this value to 0 sets unlimited returns. This parameter
can also be set on individual calls. B<Note:> This is a system wide
configuration change and requires administrator privilages on user.
B<Note: You should not use a value less than the default system value
for this field or you may impact normal operation of your system>
Example usage:
reset_limit => 0, # unlimited returns
=item reset_limit
Once max_returns is used, reset_limit, if set will return the server
to nominated max_returns limit (eg 3000), thereby limiting the possible
impact on the system of having max_returns set to a high value (eg 0).
Example usage:
reset_limit => 3000, # max returns back to a suitable maximum of 3000
=item ars_debug
Turn on, if true (1), the ARSperl debugging output.
Not something you would normally use.
=item log
Pass a object to use to log erros/information to a log file.
The log object is expected to have methods I<exp> and I<msg>
lib/ARS/Simple.pm view on Meta::CPAN
use ARS::Simple;
use File::Log;
my $log = File::Log->new();
my $ars = ARS::Simple->new({
server => 'my_server',
user => 'some_admin',
password => 'password_for_some_admin',
log => $log,
max_returns => 0, # allow unlimited returns
reset_limit => 3000, # reset to a suitable limit after each call using max_returns
ars_debug => 1, # get a whole lot of debugging information (you real should not need)
});
=head2 get_list
Method to return an array reference of Entry-Id values for a form.
Arguments are passed as an hash reference, with two required parameters, eg:
# Get theEntry-Id's for all records in the 'User' form.
my $eids = $ars->get_list({ form => 'User', query => '1 = 1' });
lib/ARS/Simple.pm view on Meta::CPAN
};
=head2 get_ctl
Returns the ARSystem control structure, so you can use it in other
ARSperl calls.
=head2 get_fields
get_fields has a required argument, the form you require the
field details for. The returned hash reference is the result
of a call to ars_GetFieldTable, the keys are the field names
and the values are the field ids (fid).
=head2 set_max_entries
This requires that the 'user' has administrator access. This
allows the overriding of the B<system wide> maximum rows returned
setting AR_SERVER_INFO_MAX_ENTRIES, setting this to zero (0) will
allow unlimited returns.
B<Beware of setting this to a small value, it is system wide and
could have a major impact on your system>
=head1 PRIVATE METHODS
=head2 _init
lib/ARS/Simple.pm view on Meta::CPAN
=head2 _load_qualifier
