=head1 NAME

Env::Sanctify - Lexically scoped sanctification of %ENV

=head1 VERSION

version 1.12

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  my $sanctify = Env::Sanctify->sanctify( sanctify => [ '^POE' ] );

  # do some stuff, fork some processes etc.

  $sanctify->restore

  {

    my $sanctify = Env::Sanctify->sanctify( env => { POE_TRACE_DEFAULT => 1 } );

    # do some stuff, fork some processes etc.
  }

  # out of scope, %ENV is back to normal

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Env::Sanctify is a module that provides lexically scoped manipulation and sanctification of
C<%ENV>.

You can specify that it alter or add additional environment variables or remove existing ones
according to a list of matching regexen.

You can then either C<restore> the environment back manually or let the object fall out of
scope, which automagically restores.

Useful for manipulating the environment that forked processes and sub-processes will inherit.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=over

=item C<sanctify>

Creates an Env::Sanctify object. Takes two optional arguments:

  'env', a hashref of env vars to add to %ENV;
  'sanctify', an arrayref of regex pattern strings to match against current %ENV vars;

Any C<%ENV> var that matches a C<sanctify> regex is removed from the resultant C<%ENV>.

=back

=head1 METHODs

=over

=item C<restore>

Explicitly restore the previous C<%ENV>. This is called automagically when the object is C<DESTROY>ed,
for instance, when it goes out of scope.

=back

=head1 CAVEATS

It has been reported that redefining the Env::Sanctify object causes unexpected behaviour.

  use strict;
  use warnings;

  use Env::Sanctify;

  $ENV{TEST} = 'Test thing';

  my $sanctify = Env::Sanctify->sanctify( sanctify => [ 'TEST' ] );

  printf "My ENV{TEST}: %s\n", $ENV{TEST};

  $sanctify = Env::Sanctify->sanctify( env => { TEST => 'Other answer' } );

  printf "My ENV{TEST}: %s\n", $ENV{TEST};

This script outputs:

  My ENV{TEST}:
  My ENV{TEST}: Test thing
