This could be entered into a hash fairly simply. First set the filehandle to read in paragraph mode, (
local $/ = ''), within a limited scope (determined by the enclosing braces,
{ }). Then a simple
split /\n/ will capture the key and the values in an array.
EDIT: added for loop that removes quotes from beginning and end of items in @data
Usage: perl my_program.pl input_file
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my %data;
{
local $/ = '';
while (<>) {
my ($key, @data) = split /\n/;
for (@data) {
s/^"//;
s/"$//;
}
$data{$key} = \@data;
}
}
$Data::Dumper::Indent=1;
print Dumper \%data;
Prints:
$VAR1 = {
'arn:aws:iam::12345678901:role/Role2-Role2' => [
'Alexa for Business',
'AWS Certificate Manager',
'AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority',
'AWS Amplify',
'Manage - Amazon API Gateway',
'Application Auto Scaling',
'AWS App Mesh',
'Amazon AppStream 2.0',
'AWS AppSync'
],
'arn:aws:iam::11111111111:role/ADFS-MyRoleName' => [
'Alexa for Business',
'AWS Certificate Manager',
'AWS Certificate Manager Private Certificate Authority',
'AWS Amplify',
'Manage - Amazon API Gateway',
'AWS App Mesh',
'Amazon AppStream 2.0',
'AWS AppSync',
'Amazon Athena',
'AWS Auto Scaling'
]
};
(The output is a little messy due to the long key names.)
EDIT: Used Indent to Data::Dumper to clean up output from Dumper as noted by jdporter

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
