NAME
ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod::Constant - constants for ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod
SYNOPSIS
use ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod::Constant;
my $default_dialect = $OPTION_HR->{dialect};
my $pandoc = $PANDOC_EXE;
my $cmd = $PANDOC_CMD_MD2TEXT_CR->($pandoc, '-');DESCRIPTION
ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod::Constant defines exported constants used by the core processor and command-line tool.
The constants are stored in %Constant, exported as package variables, and can be overridden by local configuration files loaded at compile time.
CONSTANTS
$OPTION_HR : Default processor options. The current default Markdown dialect is GitHub.
$PANDOC_EXE : Path to pandoc discovered from PATH, or an empty string when pandoc is not available.
$PANDOC_CMD_MD2TEXT_CR : Code reference that builds the pandoc command used to render Markdown to plain text for README generation.
FUNCTIONS
bin_find
my $path = ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod::Constant::bin_find(qw(pandoc pandoc.exe));
Searches C<PATH> for the first executable-like file matching one of the supplied
names and returns a canonical path. If no candidate is found, it returns an
empty string.LOCAL OVERRIDES
Local constants can be overridden by files loaded from:
lib/ASPEER/MakeMaker/Markdown/Pod/Constant.pm.local
~/.ASPEER::MakeMaker::Markdown::Pod::Constant.local
Those files are expected to return a hash reference suitable for merging into
C<%Constant>.SEE ALSO
