NAME alias::module - Alias one module as another VERSION This document describes version 0.003 of alias::module (from Perl distribution alias-module), released on 2023-09-30. SYNOPSIS package Your::Alias::Name; use alias::module 'Some::Real::Module::Name'; To avoid require()-ing: use alias::module '-norequire', 'Some::Real::Module::Name'; DESCRIPTION This module aliases one module name to another. package Your::Alias::Name; use alias::module 'Some::Real::Module::Name'; is equivalent to: package Your::Alias::Name; BEGIN { $Package::Alias::BRAVE = 1; require Some::Real::Module::Name; } use Package::Alias 'Your::Alias::Name' => 'Some::Real::Module::Name'; except that this module does not use Package::Alias and is simpler. It is useful if you want to let users access a module's functionality under a different (usually shorter) name.

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. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2023, 2018 by perlancar <perlancar@cpan.org>.
