Module::Install::MakeMaker - Extension Rules for ExtUtils::MakeMaker
In your Makefile.PL:
use inc::Module::Install;
WriteMakefile();
This module is a wrapper around ExtUtils::MakeMaker. It exports
two functions: prompt (an alias for ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt)
and WriteMakefile.
The WriteMakefile function will pass on keyword/value pair functions
to ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteMakefile. The required parameters
NAME and VERSION (or VERSION_FROM) are not necessary if
it can find them unambiguously in your code.
This module also adds some Configuration parameters of its own:
The NAME parameter is required by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. If you have a single module in your distribution, or if the module name indicated by the current directory exists under lib/, this module will use the guessed package name as the default.
If this module can't find a default for NAME it will ask you to specify
it manually.
ExtUtils::MakeMaker requires either the VERSION or VERSION_FROM
parameter. If this module can guess the package's NAME, it will attempt
to parse the VERSION from it.
If this module can't find a default for VERSION it will ask you to
specify it manually.
ExtUtils::MakeMaker provides you with many useful make targets. A
make target is the word you specify after make, like test
for make test. Some of the more useful targets are:
make it is the same as
entering make all. This target builds all of your code and stages it
in the blib directory.
blib directory into the appropriate
directories in your Perl installation.
perl Makefile.PL and make.
perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
This module modifies the behaviour of some of these targets, depending on your requirements, and also adds the following targets to your Makefile:
perldoc Module::Install.
cpansign -s, for Module::Signature users to
sign the distribution before release.
the Module::Install manpage, the CPAN::MakeMaker manpage, the CPAN::MakeMaker::Philosophy manpage
