At present, I kinda like Ben Rubson's suggestion of a read only hash in
a startup script
which is keyed by hostname
Yes, no doubt about that. But this does not answer the question : where
do you store this hash (or a reference to it), so that a handler, later,
would have access to it ?
startup_script :
my $big_hash = {
hostname1 => { ... },
hostname2 => { ... },
};
# save $big_hash "somewhere"
exit;
... later ...
sub handler {
# how do I access $big_hash ? (where is it ?)
return OK;
}
You can use Startup.pm like this :
package Startup;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base qw(Exporter);
our @EXPORT_OK = qw(%config);
our %config;
$config{'VH1'}{'foo'} = 'nicevalue';
1;
Then in your other scripts :
use Startup qw(%config);
my $var = $config{'VH1'}{'foo'};
Or without a package, if your vars are rather simple, you could use $ENV...
