NAME

App::Module::Setup - a simple setup for a new module

SYNOPSIS

Nothing in here is meant for public consumption. Use module-setup from the command line.

module-setup --author="A.U. Thor" --email=a.u.thor@example.com Foo::Bar

DESCRIPTION

This is the core module for App::Module::Setup. If you're not looking to extend or alter the behavior of this module, you probably want to look at module-setup instead.

App::Module::Setup is used to create a skeletal CPAN distribution, including basic builder scripts, tests, documentation, and module code. This is done through just one method, main.

METHODS

App::Module::Setup->main( $options )

main is the only method you should need to use from outside this module; all the other methods are called internally by this one.

This method creates the distribution and populates it with the all the requires files.

It takes a reference to a hash of params, as follows:

module       # module to create in distro
version      # initial version
author       # author's full name (taken from C<getpwuid> if not provided)
email        # author's email address
verbose      # bool: print progress messages; defaults to 0
template     # template set to use
postcmd	 # array ref of commands to execute after creating
install-templates # bool: just install the selected templates
minperl	 # minimal perl version, e.g. 5.010000
license	 # e.g. perl_5

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

David Golden, for giving me the final incentive to write this module.

I borrowed many ideas from Module::Starter which was originally written by Andy Lester (PETDANCE). Its current design came from Ricardo Signes (RJBS). Sawyer X added features and maintains the module after them.
