Re-using PEAR_Size – Embedding it in your own application
Re-using PEAR_Size
PEAR_Size consists of several core classes plus some ancillary
ones. Most important is the PEAR_Size
class itself. This performs the data-gathering process and
then initiates the generation of the output report (using the
analyse() and generateReport()
methods respectively). The format of the report is set using the
setOutputDriver() method.
If writing a command-line script that will utilise the power of
PEAR_Size it is best to use the PEAR_Size_CLI
class and run() for parsing the details and
options set at the command prompt. The usage()
method is for displaying either a usage screen or some error
message. This method uses the application name as defined with the
setAppName() method in those screens. If you
intend to embed PEAR_Size into your own application or script you
can set its name with the aforementioned method and retrieve it with
appName().
