-# User database tools?
-
-Any tool to view user database?
-
-Any tool to edit the user database?
-
-> No, but it's fairly easy to write such tools in perl. For example, to
-> list all users in the user database:
-
- joey@kodama:~/src/joeywiki/.ikiwiki>perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); print $_ foreach keys %$userinfo'
- http://joey.kitenet.net/
- foo
-
-> To list each user's email address:
-
- joey@kodama:~/src/joeywiki/.ikiwiki>perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); print $userinfo->{$_}->{email} foreach keys %$userinfo'
-
- joey@kitenet.net
-
-> Editing is simply a matter of changing values and calling Storable::store().
-> I've not written actual utilities to do this yet because I've only needed
-> to do it rarely, and the data I've wanted has been different each time.

-
->>> Let's see, you could do something like this:
->>> perl -le 'use Storable; my $userinfo=Storable::retrieve("userdb"); delete $$userinfo{"joey"}; Storable::lock_store($userinfo, "userdb")'
->>> I suppose I should stop being lame and create a command line tool wrapping up these operations.. --[[Joey]]

Hello Joey,
