使用Config :: Std的MooseX

Question

I'm trying to read a config file with the format

<tag>:<value>

but I'm having no luck with any of the modules mentioned in this Stack Overflow question , as the Moose modules referred all seem to favour the config.ini style

<tag>=<value>

which I can't use because I've already got a lot of config files with the : notation.

Can I override the method in MooseX::Configuration which uses Config::INI::Reader by a method which uses Config::Std in an easily maintainable way?

Answer 1

It looks to me like you can use MooseX::ConfigFromFile and implement the get_config_from_file method like this

sub get_config_from_file {
  my ($class, $file) = @_;
  open my $fh, '<', $file or die $!;
  scalar { map { chomp; split /:/, $_, 2 } <$fh> };
}
