Test2::Tools::GenTemp(3) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Test2::Tools::GenTemp(3)

Test2::Tools::GenTemp - Tool for generating a populated temp directory.

This exports a tool that helps you make a temporary directory, nested directories and text files within.

    use Test2::Tools::GenTemp qw/gen_temp/;
    my $dir = gen_temp(
        a_file => "Contents of a_file",
        a_dir  => {
            'a_file' => 'Contents of a_dir/afile',
            a_nested_dir => { ... },
        },
        ...
    );
    done_testing;

All subs are exported by default.

This will generate a new temporary directory with all the files and subdirs you specify, recursively. The initial temp directory is created using File::Temp::tempdir(), you may pass arguments to tempdir using the "-tempdir => [...]" argument.
