module-template Module::Name -t /path/to/templates -m <Module::Name>REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

-m module nameOPTIONS
-c Path to configuration file
-t Path to template directoryDESCRIPTION
module-template creates a Perl project directory based off a template you define in $HOME/.module-template/templates. The 'templates' directory can contain Template Toolkit files, plain files, and directories. The directory structure will be recreated in your project directory. Template Toolkit files are processed as you would expect and plain files are copied to their respective location in your project directory.
You define any variables you want in $HOME/.module-template/config. Those variables will be available in your TT templates. Three template variables are defined inside module-template; module, today, and year. Some variables are set up for you in the config file. Feel free to change or remove these as you see fit.
The default license is Artistic 2.0. You can override that by creating your own LICENSE file and updating the license_type and license_body variables in your config file.
The first time you run module-template, a .module-template directory will be created for you in your $HOME directory.
REQUIREMENTS
Easy to use and quick to get running. This is all the documentation you need unless you don't know Template Toolkit.
