NAME

Test::File::ShareDir - Create a Fake ShareDir for your modules for testing.

VERSION

version 0.3.1

SYNOPSIS

use Test::More;

# use FindBin; optional

use Test::File::ShareDir
    # -root => "$FindBin::Bin/../" # optional,
    -share => {
        -module => { 'My::Module' => 'share/MyModule' }
        -dist   => { 'My-Dist'    => 'share/somefolder' }
    };

use My::Module;

use File::ShareDir qw( module_dir dist_dir );

module_dir( 'My::Module' ) # dir with files from $dist/share/MyModule

dist_dir( 'My-Dist' ) # dir with files from $dist/share/somefolder

DESCRIPTION

This module only has support for creating 'new' style share dirs and are NOT compatible with old File::ShareDirs.

For this reason, unless you have File::ShareDir 1.00 or later installed, this module will not be usable by you.

IMPORTING

-root

This parameter is the prefix the other paths are relative to.

If this parameter is not specified, it defaults to the Current Working Directory ( CWD ).

In versions prior to 0.3.0, this value was mandatory.

The rationale behind using CWD as the default value is as follows.

  • Most users of this module are likely to be using it to test distributions

  • Most users of this module will be using it in $project/t/ to load files from $project/share/

  • Most CPAN tools run tests with CWD = $project

Therefor, defaulting to CWD is a reasonably sane default for most people, but where it is not it can still be overridden.

-root => "$FindBin::Bin/../" # resolves to project root from t/ regardless of Cwd.

-share

This parameter is mandatory, and contains a hashref containing the data that explains what directories you want shared.

-share =>  { ..... }

-module

-module contains a hashref mapping Module names to path names for module_dir style share dirs.

-share => {
  -module => { 'My::Module' => 'share/mymodule/', }
}

...

module_dir('My::Module')

Notedly, it is a hashref, which means there is a limitation of one share dir per module. This is simply because having more than one share dir per module makes no sense at all.

-dist

-dist contains a hashref mapping Distribution names to path names for dist_dir style share dirs. The same limitation applied to -module applies here.

-share => {
  -dist => { 'My-Dist' => 'share/mydist' }
}
...
dist_dir('My-Dist')
