=head1 DESCRIPTION

There are a number of ways to help script development and to encorage people to do the right thing.
One of thses is to make it easy to get parameters from the command line. Obviously you can play with Getopt::Long and
continuously write the same code and add in your own handlers for help etc, but then your co-workers and friends
make not be so consistent, leading to scripts that have no help and take lots of cryptic parameters.

So I created this module to help with command line arguments and displaying help, then I added L<App::Basis::Config> because
everyone needs config files and does not want to constantly repeat themselves there either.

So how is better than other similar modules? I can't say that it is, but it meets my needs.

There is app help available, there is basic debug functionality, which you can extend using your own function,
you can daemonise your script or run a shell command and get the output/stderr/return code.

If you choose to use App::Basis::Config then you will find easy methods to manage reading/saving YAML based config data.

There are (or will be) other App::Basis modules available to help you write scripts without you having to do complex things
or write lots of code.

There is a helper script to create the boilerplate for an appbasis script, see L<appbasis>

=head1 NAME

 App::Basis

=head1 Public Functions

=over 4

=item set_log_file

Set the name of the log file for the debug function

    set_log_file( "/tmp/lof_file_name") ;
    debug( "INFO", "adding to the debug log") ;

=item debug

Write some debug data. If a debug function was passed to init_app that will be
used, otherwise we will write to STDERR.

    debug( "WARN", "some message") ;
    debug( "ERROR", "Something went wrong") ;

B<Parameters>
  string used as a 'level' of the error
  array of anything else, normally error description strings

If your script uses App::Basis make sure your modules do too, then any debug
can go to your default debug handler, like log4perl, but simpler!

=item set_debug

Tell App:Simple to use a different function for the debug calls.
Generally you don't need this if you are using init_app, add the link there.

B<Parameters>
  coderef pointing to the function you want to do the debugging

=item set_verbose

Turn on use of verbose or verbose_data functions, verbose outputs to STDERR
its different to debug logging with generally will go to a file

    set_verbose( 1) ;
    verbose( "note that I performed some action") ;

=item verbose

Write to STDERR if verbose has been turned on
its different to debug logging with generally will go to a file

    set_verbose( 1) ;
    verbose( "note that I performed some action") ;

=item verbose

Dump a data structure to STDERR if verbose has been turned on
its different to debug logging with generally will go to a file

    set_verbose( 1) ;
    verbose_data( \%some_hash) ;

=item init_app

B<Parameters> hash of these things

    help_text    - what to say when people do app --help
    help_cmdline - extra things to put after the sample args on a sample command line (optional)
    cleanup      - coderef of function to call when your script ends (optional)
    debug        - coderef of function to call to save/output debug data (optional, recommended)
    'verbose'    - use verbose mode (optional) will trigger set_verbose by default
    log_file     - alternate name of file to store debug to
    ctrlc_func   - coderef of function to call when user presses ctrl-C
    options      - hashref of program arguments
      simple way
      'fred'     => 'some description of fred'
      'fred|f'   => 'fred again, also allows -f as a variant'
      'fred|f=s' => 'fred needs to be a string'
      'fred|f=i' => 'fred needs to be an integer'

      complex way, more features, validation, dependancies etc
      'fred|f=s' => {
         desc      => 'description of argument',
         # check if fred is one of the allowed things
         validate  => sub { my $fred = shift ; $fred =~ m/bill|mary|jane|sam/i ;},
         # does this option need another option to exist
         depends   => 'otheroption'
       }
      'fred|f=s' => {
         desc     => 'description of argument',
         default  => 'default value for fred'
      }

B<Note will die if not passed a HASH of arguments>

=item get_program

get the name of the running program
just a helper function

=item get_options

return the command line options hash
just a helper function

=item show_usage

show how this program is used, outputs help, parameters etc, this is written
to STDERR

B<Parameters>
  msg     - additional message to explain why help is displayed (optional)
  state   - int value to exit the program with

B<Sample output help>
    Syntax: app [options] other things

    About:  Boiler plate code for an App::Basis app

    [options]
        -h, --help          Show help
        -i, --item          another item [DEFAULT: 123]
        -t, --test          test item [DEFAULT: testing 123]
        -v --verbose        Dump extra useful information
