Perl::PrereqScanner(3)User Contributed Perl DocumentatioPerl::PrereqScanner(3)

NAME
       Perl::PrereqScanner - a tool to scan your Perl code for its
       prerequisites

VERSION
       version 1.014

SYNOPSIS
	 use Perl::PrereqScanner;
	 my $scanner = Perl::PrereqScanner->new;
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_ppi_document( $ppi_doc );
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_file( $file_path );
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_string( $perl_code );

DESCRIPTION
       The scanner will extract loosely your distribution prerequisites from
       your files.

       The extraction may not be perfect but tries to do its best. It will
       currently find the following prereqs:

       ·   plain lines beginning with "use" or "require" in your perl modules
	   and scripts, including minimum perl version

       ·   regular inheritance declared with the "base" and "parent" pragmata

       ·   Moose inheritance declared with the "extends" keyword

       ·   Moose roles included with the "with" keyword

       ·   OO namespace aliasing using the "aliased" module

   Scanner Plugins
       Perl::PrereqScanner works by running a series of scanners over a
       PPI::Document representing the code to scan.  By default the "Perl5",
       "Moose", "TestMore", "POE", and "Aliased" scanners are run.  You can
       supply your own scanners when constructing your PrereqScanner:

	 # Us only the Perl5 scanner:
	 my $scanner = Perl::PrereqScanner->new({ scanners => [ qw(Perl5) ] });

	 # Use any stock scanners, plus Example:
	 my $scanner = Perl::PrereqScanner->new({ extra_scanners => [ qw(Example) ] });

METHODS
   scan_string
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_string( $perl_code );

       Given a string containing Perl source code, this method returns a
       CPAN::Meta::Requirements object describing the modules it requires.

       This method will throw an exception if PPI fails to parse the code.

   scan_file
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_file( $path );

       Given a file path to a Perl document, this method returns a
       CPAN::Meta::Requirements object describing the modules it requires.

       This method will throw an exception if PPI fails to parse the code.

   scan_ppi_document
	 my $prereqs = $scanner->scan_ppi_document( $ppi_doc );

       Given a PPI::Document, this method returns a CPAN::Meta::Requirements
       object describing the modules it requires.
