GnuPG::Interface is a Perl interface to GnuPG.

SYNOPSIS

# A simple example
use IO::Handle;
use GnuPG::Interface;

# settting up the situation
my $gnupg = GnuPG::Interface->new();
$gnupg->options->hash_init( armor => 1,
homedir => /home/foobar );

# Note you can set the recipients even if you arent encrypting!
$gnupg->options->push_recipients( ftobin@cpan.org );
$gnupg->options->meta_interactive( 0 );

# how we create some handles to interact with GnuPG
my $input = IO::Handle->new();
my $output = IO::Handle->new();
my $handles = GnuPG::Handles->new( stdin => $input,
stdout => $output );

# Now well go about encrypting with the options already set
my @plaintext = ( foobar );
my $pid = $gnupg->encrypt( handles => $handles );

# Now we write to the input of GnuPG
print $input @plaintext;
close $input;

# now we read the output
my @ciphertext = ;
close $output;

waitpid $pid, 0;

GnuPG::Interface and its associated modules are designed to provide an object-oriented method for interacting with GnuPG, being able to perform functions such as but not limited to encrypting, signing, decryption, verification, and key-listing parsing.

How Data Member Accessor Methods are Created

Each module in the GnuPG::Interface bundle relies on Class::MethodMaker to generate the get/set methods used to set the objects data members. This is very important to realize. This means that any data member which is a list has special methods assigned to it for pushing, popping, and clearing the list.

Understanding Bidirectional Communication

It is also imperative to realize that this package uses interprocess communication methods similar to those used in IPC::Open3 and "Bidirectional Communication with Another Process" in perlipc, and that users of this package need to understand how to use this method because this package does not abstract these methods for the user greatly. This package is not designed to abstract this away entirely (partly for security purposes), but rather to simply help create proper, clean calls to GnuPG, and to implement key-listing parsing. Please see "Bidirectional Communication with Another Process" in perlipc to learn how to deal with these methods.

Using this package to do message processing generally invovlves creating a GnuPG::Interface object, creating a GnuPG::Handles object, setting some options in its options data member, and then calling a method which invokes GnuPG, such as clearsign. One then interacts with with the handles appropriately, as described in "Bidirectional Communication with Another Process" in perlipc.

RULI stands for Resolver User Layer Interface. Its a library built on top of an asynchronous DNS stub resolver. RULI provides an easy-to-use interface for querying DNS SRV resource records. The goal is to promote wide deployment of SRV-cognizant software. RULI aims to fully support SRV-related standards. There are bindings for PHP, Perl, Guile/Scheme, Java, and Lua. IPv6 is supported.

Now you can understand the benefits of SRV records and please see how RULI can help you.

SRV records are more complex than A records

Handling DNS SRV is not as simple as to deal with ordinary address records. When one performs a query for A records by calling gethostbyname(), he gets a list of addresses which should be contacted in the same order as they were received. For SRV records, there is an additional logic that must be applied to the records, based on their weight and priority, to discover the correct sequence for contacting them.
RULI can handle SRV records for you

The SRV logic is described in RFC 2782. Those who intend to use SRV benefits in their application are expected to implement that exact behavior. RULI can help here: it automatically performs all the SRV logic for you.
Keep focus on your application logic

Application developers probably want to spend time on their business logic; not dealing with the details of the DNS protocol or implementing the SRV specification.

RULI is a tested framework designed to properly fetch SRV records. It saves you time and head aches.
RULI is free as in free beer and in free speech
