OWPERL(3)                    One-Wire File System                    OWPERL(3)


NAME

       owperl - perl interface for the 1-wire filesystem


SYNOPSIS

       OW.pm
       use OW ;
       OW::init( interface );
       OW::init( initialization string );

       The full set of initialization options is extensive. They correspond
       roughly to the command line options of ,B owfs (1) owhttpd (1) and
       owftpd (1)
       OW::get( path );
       OW::put( path , value );
       OW::finish();


DESCRIPTION

       See the file man3/description.3so.

   owperl
       owperl (3) is a perl module that provides an interface to OWFS. The
       path to each 1-wire device is the same as owfs (1) . Only the top layer
       has been modified to return native perl strings.

       owperl (3) is created by swig (1) (http://www.swig.org) which can be
       easily modified to support other programming languages.


FUNCTIONS

   OW::init( interface )
       interface
       Location of the 1-wire bus:

       "u"    Direct connection to the 1-wire interface on the USB port --
              DS9490

       /dev/ttySx
              Direct connection to a 1-wire interface on the serial port --
              DS9097U or DS9097

       port | :port | IPaddress:port
              Location of an owserver daemon that connects to the 1-wire bus.
              Multiple owperl as well as owfs and owhttpd programs can access
              the owserver process simultaneously. In fact, this will probably
              be the preferred mode of access to OWFS for owperl except in
              trivial applications.


EXAMPLE

       perl -MOW -e "OW::init('/dev/ttyS1'); printf OW::get('');"
