Data::Dumper can be configured through the use of its package
variables (or methods if you are using the OO version). For instance:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
$Data::Dumper::Sortkeys = 1;
$Data::Dumper::Useqq = 1;
$Data::Dumper::Indent = 1;
$Data::Dumper::Terse = 1;
print Dumper {
foo => 1,
bar => undef,
baz => [
"\t", "\0", " ", "\r", "\n"
],
};
produces:
{
"bar" => undef,
"baz" => [
"\t",
"\0",
" ",
"\r",
"\n"
],
"foo" => 1
}
Compare with the default (note, key order is not guaranteed):
$VAR1 = {
'bar' => undef,
'baz' => [
' ',
'',
' ',
', '
'
'
],
'foo' => 1
};
I particularly like what "\r" does to its line in the default.
