NAME

Require::Hook::Source::MetaCPAN - Load module source code from MetaCPAN

VERSION

This document describes version 0.003 of Require::Hook::Source::MetaCPAN (from Perl distribution Require-Hook-Source-MetaCPAN), released on 2022-11-15.

SYNOPSIS

 {
     local @INC = (@INC, Require::Hook::Source::MetaCPAN->new);
     require Foo::Bar; # will be searched from MetaCPAN
     # ...
 }

DESCRIPTION

Warning: this is most probably not suitable for use in production or real-world code.

METHODS

new([ %args ]) => obj

Constructor. Known arguments:

  • die

    Bool. Default is true.

    If set to 1 (the default) will die if module source code can't be fetched (e.g. the module does not exist on CPAN, or there is network error). If set to 0, will simply decline so require() will try the next entry in @INC.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

 % prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
