Most commands from Module::Install are supported, and most parameters to Module::Build's "new" routine are supported as commands. This includes the share directory implementation that Module::Install::Share and File::ShareDir implements. This means that using this module instead of Module::Install can be as easy as replacing the "use inc::Module::Install" line by "use inc::Module::Build::Functions", and renaming the resulting file to Build.PL. Module::Install::DSL syntax is also supported with Module::Build::Functions::DSL. Unfortunately, Module::Install extensions are not supported. INTERFACE All functions are exported by default. Unless specified otherwise, a function is accumulative - it can be called more that once to add to a list. Functions unique to Module::Build::Functions cygwin some_code if cygwin; Returns true if $^O equals cygwin. get_builder my $mb_object = get_builder(); Creates the Module::Build object (or returns it if already created) defined by the functions previously executed in this module. Module::Build->new parameters (with synonyms noted) Lists of modules All lists of modules take a module name (with an optional version) or a hashref that contains a list of modules and versions. Versions are specified as Module::Build::Authoring specifies them. If the version parameter is omitted when one module is being added to the list, the version is assumed to be 0. requires requires 'Module::CoreList' => 2.17; requires 'Acme::24'; requires 'Acme' => '!1.11111'; Modules listed using this function are required for using the module(s) being installed. recommends recommends 'Module::CoreList' => 2.17; recommends 'Acme::24'; recommends 'Acme' => '!1.11111'; Modules listed using this function are recommended, but not required, for using the module(s) being installed. configure_requires configure_requires 'Module::CoreList' => 2.17; configure_requires 'Acme::24'; configure_requires 'Acme' => '!1.11111'; Modules listed using this function are required for running the distribution's "Build.PL". Note: Module::Build does not need to be added to this list, as Module::Build::Functions will determine the version of Module::Build required for the functions used. build_requires build_requires 'Module::CoreList' => 2.17; build_requires 'Acme::24'; build_requires 'Acme' => '!1.11111'; Modules listed using this function are only required for running "./Build" itself, not "Build.PL", nor the module(s) being installed. Note: Module::Build does not need to be added to this list, as Module::Build::Functions will determine the version of Module::Build required for the functions used. test_requires test_requires 'Test::More'; test_requires 'Test::Compile' => 0.01; test_requires 'Capture::Tiny' => 0.06; Modules listed using this function are required for running the distribution's test suite. conflicts conflicts 'Acme' => '1.11111'; conflicts 'Perl::Dist' => '<1.14'; Modules listed using this function conflict in some serious way with the module being installed, and the Build.PL will not continue if these modules are already installed. Directories c_source # Not accumulative - only the last c_source is used. c_source 'src'; This function specifies a directory which contains C source files that the rest of the build may depend on. See Module::Build's documentation on c_source() for more information. include_dirs include_dir (Module::Build::Functions synonym) include_dir 'include'; include_dir File::Spec->catdir(qw(include xs)); Specifies any additional directories in which to search for C header files. May be given as a string indicating a single directory, or as a list reference indicating multiple directories. install_path install_path 'lib' '/foo/lib'; install_path 'man' File::Spec->catdir(File::Spec->rootdir(), 'foo', 'man'); To set specific locations for different types of installable elements, call "install_path" with the type of installable element and the location where it should be installed. *Recommendation*: Don't use this unless you are either deliberately installing outside the default perl library directories, or installing a new type, defined by "install_path". Files PL_files pl_files Pl_file pl_file An optional parameter specifying a set of ".PL" files in your distribution. These will be run as Perl scripts prior to processing the rest of the files in your distribution with the name of the file they're generating as an argument. They are usually used as templates for creating other files dynamically, so that a file like "lib/Foo/Bar.pm.PL" might create the file "lib/Foo/Bar.pm". The files are specified with the ".PL" files as hash keys, and the file(s) they generate as hash values, like so: my $build = Module::Build->new ( module_name => 'Foo::Bar', ... PL_files => { 'lib/Foo/Bar.pm.PL' => 'lib/Foo/Bar.pm' }, ); Note that the path specifications are *always* given in Unix-like format, not in the style of the local system. If your ".PL" scripts don't create any files, or if they create files with unexpected names, or even if they create multiple files, you can indicate that so that Module::Build can properly handle these created files: PL_files => { 'lib/Foo/Bar.pm.PL' => 'lib/Foo/Bar.pm', 'lib/something.PL' => ['/lib/something', '/lib/else'], 'lib/funny.PL' => [], } Here's an example of a simple PL file. my $output_file = shift; open my $fh, ">", $output_file or die "Can't open $output_file: $!"; print $fh <<'END'; #!/usr/bin/perl print "Hello, world!\n"; END PL files are not installed by default, so its safe to put them in lib/ and bin/. pm_files An optional parameter specifying the set of ".pm" files in this distribution, specified as a hash reference whose keys are the files' locations in the distributions, and whose values are their logical locations based on their package name, i.e. where they would be found in a "normal" Module::Build-style distribution. This parameter is mainly intended to support alternative layouts of files. For instance, if you have an old-style "MakeMaker" distribution for a module called "Foo::Bar" and a Bar.pm file at the top level of the distribution, you could specify your layout in your "Build.PL" like this: my $build = Module::Build->new ( module_name => 'Foo::Bar', ... pm_files => { 'Bar.pm' => 'lib/Foo/Bar.pm' }, ); Note that the values should include "lib/", because this is where they would be found in a "normal" Module::Build-style distribution. Note also that the path specifications are *always* given in Unix-like format, not in the style of the local system. pod_files pod_file Just like "pm_files", but used for specifying the set of ".pod" files in your distribution. xs_file xs_files Just like "pm_files", but used for specifying the set of ".xs" files in your distribution. Metadata Functions in this section are used when generating metadata for "META.yml" and PPD files. all_from all_from 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm'; Specifies the file to look for the abstract, the author, the version, the license, and the perl version required in. dist_abstract abstract (Module::Install synonym) # Not accumulative - only the last dist_abstract or abstract is used. dist_abstract 'Module::Install style syntax for Module::Build'; abstract 'Module::Install style syntax for Module::Build'; This should be a short description of the distribution. If either this function, abstract_from, or all_from is not given, then Module::Build looks in the POD of the module from which it gets the distribution's version. If it finds a POD section marked "=head1 NAME", then it looks for the first line matching \s+-\s+(.+), and uses the captured text as the abstract. abstract_from abstract_from 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm'; Specifies a file to look for the abstract in. dist_author author (Module::Install synonym) dist_author 'John Doe '; author 'Jane Doe '; This should be something like "John Doe ", or if there are multiple authors, this routine can be called multiple times, or an anonymous array of strings may be specified. If either this function, "author_from", or "all_from" is not used, then Module::Build looks at the module from which it gets the distribution's version. If it finds a POD section marked "=head1 AUTHOR", then it uses the contents of this section. author_from (Module::Install synonym) author_from 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm'; Specifies a file to look for the author in, using the contents of a POD section marked "=head1 AUTHOR" or "=head1 AUTHORS". If either this function, "author", "dist_author",or "all_from" is not used, then Module::Build looks at the module from which it gets the distribution's version. If it finds a POD section marked "=head1 AUTHOR", then it uses the contents of this section. dist_name dist_name 'Module-Build-Functions'; Specifies the name for this distribution. Most authors won't need to set this directly, they can use module_name to set "dist_name" to a reasonable default. However, some agglomerative distributions like *libwww-perl* or *bioperl* have names that don't correspond directly to a module name, so "dist_name" can be set independently. name (Module::Install synonym) module_name module_name 'Module::Build::Functions'; Specifies the name of the main module for this distribution. This will set the distribution's name and version. dist_version version (Module::Install synonym) dist_version '0.001_001'; Specifies a version number for the distribution. See module_name or dist_version_from for ways to have this set automatically from a $VERSION variable in a module. One way or another, a version number needs to be set. perl_version perl_version '5.006001'; Specifies a minimum version of perl that this distribution requires. perl_version_from perl_version_from 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm'; Specifies a file to look for the minimum perl version in. dist_version_from version_from (Module::Install synonym) dist_version_from 'lib/Module/Build/Functions.pm'; Specifies a file to look for the distribution version in. Most authors won't need to set this directly, they can use "module_name|#module_name" to set it to a reasonable default. license license 'perl'; Specifies the licensing terms of your distribution. Valid licenses are listed in Module::Build::API. license_from license_from 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm'; Specifies a file to look for the choice of license in. meta_add meta_merge meta_add 'provides' { 'Module::Build::Functions' => { file => 'lib\Module\Build\Functions.pm', version => '0.001_010'} }; meta_merge 'resources' 'bugtracker' 'http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=Module-Build-Functions'; meta_add and meta_merge adds their parameters to the "META.yml" file. The first parameter is the key to add or merge to, and the second parameter is the value of that key (which may be a string, an arrayref, or a hashref.) The one difference is that meta_add overwrites anything else in that key, while meta_merge will merge an arrayref or hashref into the current contents of the key. Also, meta_merge allows a hashref to be ommitted if it contains only one value. no_index no_index directory => 'examples'; no_index package => 'DB'; Quite often a distrubition will provide example scripts or testing modules (.pm files) as well as the actual library modules. In almost all situations, you do not want these indexed in the CPAN index, the master Perl packages list, or displayed on the website, you just want them along for the ride. The "no_index" command is used to indicate directories or files where there might be non-library .pm files or other files that the CPAN indexer and websites such as should explicitly ignore. The most common situation is to ignore example or demo directories, but a variety of different situations may require a "no_index" entry. Another common use for "no_index" is to prevent the PAUSE indexer complaining when your module makes changes inside a "package DB" block. This is used to interact with the debugger in some specific ways. See the META.yml documentation for more details on what "no_index" values are allowed. The inc, t and share (if "install_share" is used) directories are automatically "no_index"'ed for you if found and do not require an explicit command. To summarize, if you can see it on and you shouldn't be able to, you need a "no_index" entry to remove it. Flags Functions listed here are not accumulative - only the last value a flag has been set to will apply. create_packlist create_packlist 1; create_packlist 0; # Not recommended. If this flag is set (and it is set by default), Module::Build will create a .packlist file duting the install action. create_makefile_pl create_makefile_pl 'small'; create_makefile_pl 'passthrough'; create_makefile_pl 'traditional'; This function lets you use Module::Build::Compat during the "distdir" (or "dist") action to automatically create a "Makefile.PL" for compatibility with ExtUtils::MakeMaker. The parameter's value should be one of the styles named in the Module::Build::Compat documentation. create_readme create_readme 1; This function tells Module::Build whether to automatically create a README file at the top level of your distribution or not. Currently it will simply use Pod::Text (or Pod::Readme if it's installed) on the file indicated by dist_version_from and put the result in the README file. This is by no means the only recommended style for writing a README, but it seems to be one common one used on the CPAN. If you generate a README in this way, it's probably a good idea to create a separate INSTALL file if that information isn't in the generated README. create_license create_license 1; This function tells Module::Build whether to automatically create a LICENSE file at the top level of your distribution or not. If set to 1, it creates a LICENSE file based on the license you give for your META.yml file. This requires Software::License to be installed. dynamic_config dynamic_config 1; dynamic_config 0; This function indicates whether the Build.PL file must be executed, or whether this module can be built, tested and installed solely from consulting its metadata file. The main reason to set this to a true value is that your module performs some dynamic configuration as part of its build/install process. If the flag is omitted, the META.yml spec says that installation tools should treat it as 1 (true), because this is a safer way to behave. Currently Module::Build doesn't actually do anything with this flag - it's up to higher-level tools like CPAN.pm to do something useful with it. It can potentially bring lots of security, packaging, and convenience improvements. installdirs # Not accumulative - last one of installdirs or # any aliases to installdirs will be used. installdirs 'site'; installdirs 'core'; installdirs 'vendor'; Determines where files are installed within the normal perl hierarchy as determined by Config.pm. Valid values are: core, site, vendor. The default is site. See "Module::Build#INSTALL PATHS" recursive_test_files recursive_test_files 1; If this is set to 1, Module::Build will search recursively under "/t" for "*.t" files to use when testing. Defaults to 0. sign sign 1; If this is set to 1, Module::Build will use Module::Signature to create a signature file for your distribution during the "distdir" action. use_tap_harness use_tap_harness 1; use_tap_harness 0; This indicates whether or not to use TAP::Harness for testing rather than Test::Harness. Defaults to false. If set to true, you must add TAP::Harness as a requirement for your module in "build_requires". This will be set to a true value if tap_harness_args is specified. tap_harness_args use_tap_harness { verbosity => 1, lib => [ 'lib', 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch' ] }; This indicates the options to use when TAP::Harness is used for testing, and is given as a hash reference. If set, you must add TAP::Harness as a requirement for your module in "build_requires". WARNING: May change to a accumulative function in future versions. Other functions add_to_cleanup add_to_cleanup 'Module-Build-Functions-*'; add_to_cleanup 'Makefile'; Adds a file specification (or an arrayref of file specifications) to the list of files to cleanup when the "clean" action is performed. auto_configure_requires auto_configure_requires 0; auto_configure_requires 1; This parameter determines whether Module::Build will be added to 'configure_requires' (and 'build_requires') if Module::Build is not already there. The required version will be the last 'major' release, as defined by the decimal version truncated to two decimal places (e.g. 0.34, instead of 0.3402). The default value is true. auto_features auto_features 'pg_support', 'description' => 'Interface with Postgres databases'; auto_features 'pg_support', 'requires' => 'DBD::Pg' => '23.3'; auto_features 'pg_support', 'requires' => 'DateTime::Format::Pg' => 0; auto_features 'mysql_support', 'description' => 'Interface with MySQL databases'; auto_features 'mysql_support', 'requires' => 'DBD::mysql' => '17.9'; auto_features 'mysql_support', 'requires' => 'DateTime::Format::MySQL' => 0; This parameter supports the setting of features (see "Module::Build) automatically based on a set of prerequisites. *WARNING* The syntax for this may change before 1.000! autosplit autosplit 'lib/Module/Build/Functions.pm'; Adds a file (or an arrayref containing a list of files) that need(s) to have Autosplit::autosplit() ran on them (because the file in question uses AutoLoader, most likely). build_class # Not accumulative - only the last build_class is used. build_class 'Module::Build::Subclass'; Sets the name of a subclass of Module::Build that the Build script uses. This is used if the subclass has requirements that are satisfied by "build_requires", but are not neccessarily installed when Build.PL will be executed. If the subclass, specified with this directive, define some additional propeties, helper functions for them will be exported in the building script automatically. However, if this will happened at run-time, they should be used with parenthesis: use inc::Module::Build::Functions; build_class 'Module::Build::SubClass'; custom_flag('flag_set'); custom_array(1); custom_array(10); custom_hash(key1 => 'value1'); custom_hash(key2 => 'value2'); module_name 'MBF::Test'; dist_version_from 'lib/MBF/Test.pm'; create_build_script; To use new helper functions without parenthesis, specify the 'build_class' in the parameters for 'import' method: use inc::Module::Build::Functions( build_class => 'Module::Build::SubClass' ); custom_flag 'flag_set'; custom_array 1; custom_array 10; custom_hash key1 => 'value1'; custom_hash key2 => 'value2'; module_name 'MBF::Test'; dist_version_from 'lib/MBF/Test.pm'; create_build_script; See also "additional_hash", "additional_array", "additional_flag". extra_compiler_flags extra_linker_flags *Aliases*: "extra_compiler_flag", "extra_linker_flag" These parameters can contain strings (which are split on whitespace and accumulate into an array reference in the order added) or array references to pass through to the compiler and linker phases when compiling/linking C code. For example, to tell the compiler that your code is C++, you might do: extra_compiler_flag '-x c++'; To link your XS code against glib you might write something like: extra_compiler_flags scalar `glib-config --cflags`; extra_linker_flags scalar `glib-config --libs`; get_options get_options loud => { store => \$loud }; get_options dbd => { type => '=s' }; get_options quantity => { type => '+' }; Adds a command line parameter (or a hashref of command line parameters) that the "Build.PL" or "Build" script is to process according to the specifications given (the specification hashrefs are documented in the Module::Build::API documentation.) subclass This creates a new "Module::Build" subclass on the fly, as described in the "SUBCLASSING" in Module::Build::Authoring section. The caller must provide either a "class" or "code" parameter, or both. The "class" parameter indicates the name to use for the new subclass, and defaults to "MyModuleBuilder". The "code" parameter specifies Perl code to use as the body of the subclass. create_build_script WriteAll (Module::Install synonym) Creates the *Build.PL* to be run in future steps, and returns the Module::Build object created. Supported Module::Install syntax not mentioned above install_as_core install_as_cpan Aliases for "installdirs 'core';". See installdirs. install_as_site Alias for "installdirs 'site';". See installdirs. install_as_vendor Alias for "installdirs 'vendor';". See installdirs. win32 requires 'Win32' 0.30 if win32; Returns true if $^O eq 'MSWin32'. winlike requires 'Win32' 0.28 if winlike; Returns true if $^O eq 'cygwin' or $^O eq 'MSWin32'. release_testing automated_testing Returns true if the appropriate environment variable is set to something that is true. requires_external_bin configure_requires 'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' 6.52 if cygwin; requires_external_bin 'svn'; This routine checks that a particular command is available on the host system. The *Build.PL* file will abort with an *NA* result if the command is not available. The example code shows the one limitation on this routine - because of a bug in ExtUtils::MakeMaker, this routine does not find some commands on Cygwin systems until pre-release versions of ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.52. requires_external_cc requires_external_cc; This routine checks that there is a compiler and linker on the system, and that they actually work, by calling ExtUtils::CBuilder::have_compiler. The *Build.PL* file will abort with an *NA* result if the command is not available. can_run configure_requires 'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' 6.52 if cygwin; my $has_svn = can_run 'svn'; This routine returns whether a particular command is available on the system. The example code shows the one limitation on this routine - because of a bug in ExtUtils::MakeMaker, this routine does not find some commands on Cygwin systems until pre-release versions of ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.52. can_cc my $has_compiler = can_cc; This routine returns whether there is a compiler and linker on the system, and that they actually work, by calling ExtUtils::CBuilder::have_compiler to verify that fact. can_use my $has_perl_svn = can_use 'SVN::Core'; my $has_real_alien_wix = can_use 'Alien::WiX', 0.300001; The can_use function tests the ability to load a specific named module. Currently it will load the module in the process, although this may change in the future. Takes an optional second param of a version number. The currently installed version of the module will be tested to make sure it is equal to or greater than the specified version. author_context; my $is_author = author_context; if (author_context) { ... } Returns true if being run by the author. This is determined by looking for the "inc/.author" directory, trying to detect a version control system, and looking for the *MANIFEST.SKIP* file, in that order. repository repository 'http://svn.ali.as/cpan/trunk/Module-Build-Functions/'; Alias for "meta_merge 'resources', 'repository' => $url". will use this to display the repository on the distribution's main page. bugtracker bugtracker 'http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=Module-Build-Functions'; Alias for "meta_merge 'resources', 'bugtracker' => $url". will use this instead of its usual link to rt.cpan.org to report bugs from the repository's main page. script_files script_file install_script (Module::Install synonym) # The following are equivalent install_script 'foo'; install_script 'script/foo'; XXX The 'script_files' command provides support for the installation of scripts that will become available at the console on both Unix and Windows (in the later case by wrapping it up as a .bat file). To support less typing, if a script is located in the "/script" directory, you need refer to it by name only. XXX An optional parameter specifying a set of files that should be installed as executable Perl scripts when the module is installed. May be given as an array reference of the files, as a hash reference whose keys are the files (and whose values will currently be ignored), as a string giving the name of a directory in which to find scripts, or as a string giving the name of a single script file. The default is to install any scripts found in a 'bin' directory at the top level of the distribution, minus any keys of PL_files. interactive print "A question I need a user to see.\n" if interactive; Returns true if in an interactive environment, or false otherwise. install_share # These are the same - they put files in the 'share' directory # where File::ShareDir::dist_dir or dist_file can access them # when your module is used. install_share; install_share 'dist', 'share'; # If you want to call the directory within your distribution # something different, you can. install_share 'dist', 'data'; # This installs a share directory for a module, where # File::ShareDir::module_dir or module_file can find the files # when your module is used. install_share 'module' => 'Perl::Dist::WiX', File::Spec->catdir('data', 'WiX'); install_share 'module' => 'Perl::Dist::Inno', File::Spec->catdir('data', 'Inno'); install_share 'module' => 'Acme::Angels', 'data'; This command provides a way for modules or distributions to install read-only data in a way that is easily findable after installation, and is not operating system dependent. The first parameter is either 'dist' or 'module', and specifies the type of directory this is - whether it applies to the whole distribution, or only a single module (and it's subclasses, see File::ShareDir::class_file()). If installing files for a module, the module name is required, as well. This defaults to 'dist' if not given. The last parameter is the directory in your distribution that contains the files to install, and defaults to 'share' for a distribution, although if a type is given, a directory must be, as well. The directory is given in local file system format, so you may wish to use File::Spec to stitch two or more directories together, as shown above. Unlike Module::Install's "install_share", this will NOT install a file that is not in the *MANIFEST*, so you may need to alter your *MANIFEST* or *MANIFEST.SKIP* files to let certain files through if they would ordinarily be skipped. If the "MANIFEST" file cannot be read, then no files are copied, and the "Build.PL" script stops. You have been warned. Additional properties definition This group of directives is mostly required for non-trivial subclassing of Module::Build. Module::Build::Functions do its best to find new properties from subclasses transparently. Every directive in this group accepts a single argument - the name of new property. The helper function with corresponding name will be exported to the script's scope. See also "build_class" for additional details. additional_hash This directive define a new "hash" property. Property will be accumulative: use inc::Module::Build::Functions; additional_hash 'custom_hash'; custom_hash(key1 => 'value1'); custom_hash(key2 => 'value2'); ... additional_array This directive define a new "array" property. Property will be accumulative: use inc::Module::Build::Functions; additional_hash 'custom_array'; custom_array('value1'); custom_array('value2'); ... additional_flag This directive define a new "flag" (non-accumulative) property. use inc::Module::Build::Functions; additional_flag 'custom_custom'; custom_flag('value'); ... Deprecated directives auto_bundle auto_bundle_deps bundle bundle_deps This directives comes from Module::Install::Bundle. The author has deliberately chosen to drop support for bundling at this point, since Module::Build quite probably will have native bundling capabilities soon. auto_install This directive comes from Module::Install::AutoInstall and is deprecated, as its support in the Module::Install::AutoInstall itself may be dropped soon. check_nmake This directive is deprecated in the Module::Install itself. get_file Directives to be documented test_file test_files DIAGNOSTICS "%s cannot be found" There was probably a misspelling in the command name in the Build.PL. "%s is not supported yet" Module::Build::Functions is not completely implemented yet, so a number of functions will croak with this error. Hang on, support will be coming soon! "auto_install is deprecated" The author has deliberately chosen to drop support for auto_install. (he happens to be irritated at pre-0.86 Module::Installs that stop CPAN upgrades to make him answer an unneeded question. Of COURSE, I want prerequisites installed. Why would I not?) Patches, however, would be welcomed to implement an auto_install that is not annoying. "bundle is deprecated" "auto_bundle is deprecated" "bundle_deps is deprecated" "auto_bundle_deps is deprecated" The author has deliberately chosen to drop support for bundling at this point. Patches, however, would be welcomed. "Invalid install type" "Illegal or invalid share dir type '%s'" "Illegal or missing directory install_share param" "Missing or invalid module name '%s'" "Too many parameters to install_share" "cannot add directory %s to a list of script_files" "attempt to overwrite string script_files with %s failed" "cannot add a glob to a list of test_files" "attempt to overwrite string test_files failed" Will be documented soon. CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT Module::Build::Functions requires no configuration files or environment variables of its own. See Module::Build for its configuration variables or environment variables. DEPENDENCIES File::Slurp and Module::Build are required on the system of an author using this module in his Build.PL. Capture::Tiny version 0.06 or greater is used during testing only. On the system of the person installing a module using Module::Build::Functions, only Module::Build is required. The version of Module::Build that will be required is determined by the functions used. INCOMPATIBILITIES None reported. BUGS AND LIMITATIONS No bugs have been reported. Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-Module-Build-Functions@rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at .
