     );

DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONS
  parse_keyvalue_filename
    Usage:

     parse_keyvalue_filename(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]

    Parse filename using the KeyValue naming scheme.

    Examples:

    *   A single key=value pair:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=val1.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw1 => ["val1"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=val1",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   Two key=value pairs:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=val1-kw2=val2.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw1 => ["val1"], kw2 => ["val2"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=val1-kw2=val2",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   A single key=value pair containing two values:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=val1,val1b.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw1 => ["val1", "val1b"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=val1,val1b",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   Three key=value pairs, one containing multiple values:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=val1-kw2=val2,val2b,val2c-kw3=val3.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw1 => ["val1"], kw2 => ["val2", "val2b", "val2c"], kw3 => ["val3"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=val1-kw2=val2,val2b,val2c-kw3=val3",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   Empty key=value pairs:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=-kw2=-kw3=val.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw3 => ["val"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=-kw2=-kw3=val",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   A value containing dash:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1_containing_dash=containing%2ddash-kw2_also_containing_dash=containing%2Dtwo%2Ddashes.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => {
               kw1_containing_dash      => ["containing-dash"],
               kw2_also_containing_dash => ["containing-two-dashes"],
             },
             kv_raw => "kw1_containing_dash=containing%2ddash-kw2_also_containing_dash=containing%2Dtwo%2Ddashes",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    *   A value containing comma:

         parse_keyvalue_filename(filename => "foo-bar-kw1=containing%2ccomma.jpg");

        Result:

         [
           200,
           "OK",
           {
             ext => "jpg",
             kv => { kw1 => ["containing", "comma"] },
             kv_raw => "kw1=containing%2ccomma",
             prefix => "foo-bar",
           },
           {},
         ]

    The KeyValue naming scheme puts key=value pairs at the end of filename.
    Filename must match this regex:

     /\A
      (?:
       (.+?)                                 # optional prefix (part before the first key)
       -
      )?
      (
      (?:
        ([A-Za-z_][A-Za_z0-9_]*)              # key
        =
        ([^-]*)                               # value
      )
      (?:
        -
        ([A-Za-z_][A-Za_z0-9_]*)
        =
        ([^-]*)
      )*
      (\.\w+)?                                # optional filename extension
      \z/x

    KeyValue naming scheme is used in the AssetView media assets
    organization scheme (see Media::AssetView).

    This routine parses a filename and return a structure containing parsed
    elements.

    This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

    Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

    *   array_value => *int* (default: 1)

        Always/never/maybe return value as array.

        The default (1) is to return a scalar when there is a single value,
        or an array if there are multiple values, for example:

         foo-kw1=val1-kw2=val2,val2b-kw3=val3-kw1=val1b.jpg

        then:

         kw1 = ['val1', 'val1b']
         kw2 = ['val2', 'val2b']
         kw3 = 'val3'

        The setting 0 means to never return array, so will return a
        comma-separated string instead. However, if the value is URI-decoded
        then this can potentially be ambiguous:

         kw1=val1,val2-kw1=val3%2cval4.jpg

        under array_value=0 and decode_value=1 will return:

         kw1 = 'val1,val2,val3,val4'

        while under array_value=1 or 2 will return 3 elements:

         kw1 = ['val1', 'val2', 'val3,val4']

    *   decode_value => *bool* (default: 1)

        Whether to decode value with URI-encoding.

    *   filename* => *str*

        (No description)

    Returns an enveloped result (an array).

    First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
    code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
    element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something
    like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual
    result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error
    response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is
    called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
    information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional
    metadata.

    Return value: (any)

CONTRIBUTING
    To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
    requests on GitHub.

    Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
    can simply modify the code, then test via:

     % prove -l

    If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
    on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
    Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR,
    Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
    other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps
    required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
