Config::Netrc - module for parsing of Netrc configuration files.
use Config::Netrc;
say Config::Netrc::parse-file('my-example.netrc');
There are basically two main functions: parse and parse-file. First function takes a string of netrc-file content and returns to you a hash with some signature or Nil value if parser failed.
This hash contains of two arrays: comments and entries. In the section comments you will get all comment strings(without leading #) and in the entries section you get array of hashes with this structure:
machine => {value => val, comment => my-comment},
login => {value => val, comment => my-comment},
password => {value => val, comment => my-comment}
Of course, login or password lines are optional and comment entry for lines like following:
machine val # my-comment
is also optional.
You will be able to use this hash to determine state of user's Netrc file state.
