Proc::BackOff provides methods for a Perl script to backoff retries
when an operation fails.
RecDescent incrementally generates top-down recursive-descent text
parsers from simple yacc-like grammar specifications. It provides:
* Regular expressions or literal strings as terminals (tokens)
* Multiple (non-contiguous) productions for any rule
* Repeated, optional and alternate subrules within productions
* Late-bound (run-time dispatched) subrules
* Full access to Perl within actions specified as part of the grammar
* Simple automated error reporting during generation and parsing
* The ability to commit to, uncommit to, or reject particular
productions during a parse
* Incremental extension of the parsing grammar (even during a parse)
* The ability to retrieve the generated parsing code.
Parse::Yapp lets you create Perl OO fully reentrant LALR(1) parser modules
and has been designed to be functionally as close as possible to yacc,
but using the full power of Perl and opened for enhancements.
The Parse::Lex.pm module for perl5 is an object-oriented generator of
lexical analyzers.
This distribution includes Parse::YYLex (written by Vladimir Alexiev)
a lexer generator that you can use with yacc parsers.
A tool for parsing, interrogating, and modifying a UNIX-style path. The parsing
behavior is similar to File::Spec::Unix, except that trailing slashes are
preserved (converted into a single slash).
This Perl module is useful for writers of daemons and other processes
that need to tell whether they are already running, in order to
prevent multiple process instances. The module accomplishes this
via *nix-style pidfiles, which are files that store a process
identifier.
Inspired by Proc::PID_File, but with a much simpler interface.
exprotobuf works by building module/struct definitions from a Google
Protocol Buffer schema. This allows you to work with protocol buffers
natively in Elixir, with easy decoding/encoding for transport across
the wire.
Path::Class::File::Lockable uses simple files to indicate
whether a file is locked or not.
It does not use flock(), since that is unstable over NFS.
Effort has been made to avoid race conditions.
Path::Class::File::Lockable is intended for long-standing locks,
as in a Subversion workspace. See SVN::Class for example.
This module lets you parallelise a perl program using the fork, exit,
wait and waitpid calls as usual but without taking care of creating too
many processes and overloading the machine.
The Proc::Reliable is intended to be a method for simple, reliable
and configurable subprocess execution in PERL. It includes all the
functionality of the backticks operator and system() functions,
plus many uses of fork/exec, open2() and open3(). Proc::Reliable
incorporates a number of options, including sending data to the
subprocess on STDIN, collecting STDOUT and STDERR separately or
together, killing hung processes, timeouts and automatic retries.
