NAME
nrsdbtoyaml - Extract records from Net::Radius::Server::DBStore
SYNOPSIS
nrsdbtoyaml [--delete] [--sync] {--all|--key key|--full}
[--frozen] [--filter regexp] [--help] -- <BerkeleyDB params>
# or for more complicated scenarios...
perl -MMLDBM=DB_File,Storable /usr/bin/nrsdbtoyaml --full \\
-- MLDBM::Sync $DB_FILE
DESCRIPTION
nrsdbtoyaml allows the extraction of either single records or complete
dumps of databases created by Net::Radius::Server::DBStore(3). Its
output can then be fed to billing or accounting processes that act on
the collected information.
The output is a YAML file, produced by YAML::Syck(3), thus YAML 1.0
compliant, where each extracted record will be re-serialized as YAML.
Note that you must feed configuration options that match whatever was
used to generate the particular database being read.
Note that this includes the name of the database file to read. Note
also that you must separate nrsdbtoyaml options from the underlying
storage module options using "--", as explained in Getopt::Long(3).
--delete
After dumping each tuple, delete it from the database.
--sync
"sync()" the database after each deletion. This trades in
performance for correctness.
--full
Do a complete dump of the database. Probably only good for
debugging.
--all
Dump all tuples stored in the database.
--key key
Only the tuple corresponding to this key will be printed. Multiple
keys can be specified.
--filter regexp
If specified, treats "regexp" as a Perl regular expression that
must match the key in order for it to be processed. Multiple
filters can be specified. In this case, all of them must match.
--frozen
Whether to use "thaw()" from Storable(3) on the recovered data or
not.
--help
Produces this documentation.
The program will return a true value if no errors are found. Otherwise,
an error code will be returned and a suitable error will be sent to
"STDERR". The YAML output is sent to "STDOUT".
Your local configuration might include Radius packets among the data to
be stored in the database. nrsdbtoyaml won't decode those. Instead, the
packet will be returned as a string containing the packet data that was
received.
