Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf::Parser − parse SpamAssassin configuration
(see Mail::SpamAssassin)
Mail::SpamAssassin is a module to identify spam using text analysis and several internet-based realtime blacklists.
This class is used internally by SpamAssassin to parse its configuration files. Please refer to the "Mail::SpamAssassin" documentation for public interfaces.
This is the
structure of a config-setting block. Each is a hashref which
may contain these keys:
setting
the name of the setting it modifies, e.g. "required_score". this also doubles as the default for ’command’ (below). THIS IS REQUIRED .
command
The command string used in the config file for this setting. Optional; ’setting’ will be used for the command if this is omitted.
aliases
An [aryref] of other aliases for the same command. optional.
type
The type of this setting:
- $CONF_TYPE_STRING: string - $CONF_TYPE_NUMERIC: numeric value (float or int) - $CONF_TYPE_BOOL: boolean (0 or 1) - $CONF_TYPE_TEMPLATE: template, like "report" - $CONF_TYPE_ADDRLIST: address list, like "whitelist_from" - $CONF_TYPE_HASH_KEY_VALUE: hash key/value pair, like "describe" or tflags
If this is set, a ’code’ block is assigned based on the type.
Note that $CONF_TYPE_HASH_KEY_VALUE−type settings require that the value be non−empty, otherwise they’ll produce a warning message.
code
A subroutine to deal with the setting. Only used if type is not set. ONE OF code OR type IS REQUIRED . The arguments passed to the function are "($self, $key, $value, $line)", where $key is the setting (*not* the command), $value is the value string, and $line is the entire line.
There are two special return values that the code subroutine may return to signal that there is an error in the configuration:
$Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf::MISSING_REQUIRED_VALUE -- this setting requires that a value be set, but one was not provided.
$Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf::INVALID_VALUE -- this setting requires a value from a set of ’valid’ values, but the user provided an invalid one.
Any other values -- including "undef" -- returned from the subroutine are considered to mean ’success’.
default
The default value for the setting. may be omitted if the default value is a non-scalar type, which should be set in the Conf ctor. note for path types: using "__userstate__" is recommended for defaults, as it allows Mail::SpamAssassin module users who set that configuration setting, to receive the correct values.
is_priv
Set to 1 if this setting requires ’allow_user_rules’ when run from spamd.
is_admin
Set to 1 if this setting can only be set in the system-wide config when run from spamd. (All settings can be used by local programs run directly by the user.)
is_frequent
Set to 1 if this value occurs frequently in the config. this means it’s looked up first for speed.
