VERSION

version 1.000000

SYNOPSIS

# At the command line
# --------------------------------------------------

# Auto-install missing modules globally
perl -Mlazy foo.pl

# Auto-install missing modules into ./local
perl -Mlazy='-Llocal' foo.pl

# Auto-install missing modules into ./some-other-dir
perl -Mlazy='-Lsome-other-dir' foo.pl

# In your code
# --------------------------------------------------

# Auto-install missing modules globally
use lazy;

# Auto-install missing modules into ./local
use local::lib;
use lazy qw( -L local );

# Auto-install missing modules into ./some-other-dir
use local::lib qw( some-other-dir );
use lazy qw( -L some-other-dir );

# Auto-install missing modules into ./some-other-dir and pass more options to App::cpm
use local::lib qw( some-other-dir );
use lazy qw( -L some-other-dir --man-pages --verbose --no-color );

# In a one-liner?
# --------------------------------------------------

# Install App::perlimports via a one-liner, but why would you want to?
perl -Mlazy -MApp::perlimports -E 'say "ok"'

DESCRIPTION

Your co-worker sends you a one-off script to use. You fire it up and realize you haven't got all of the dependencies installed in your work environment. Now you fire up the script and one by one, you find the missing modules and install them manually.

Not anymore!

lazy will try to install any missing modules automatically, making your day just a little less long. lazy uses App::cpm to perform this magic in the background.

USAGE

perl -Mlazy foo.pl

Or use a local lib:

perl -Mlazy='-Llocal' foo.pl

You can pass arguments directly to App::cpm via the import statement.

use lazy qw( --verbose );

Or

use lazy qw( --man-pages --with-recommends --verbose );

You get the idea.

This module uses App::cpm's defaults, with the exception being that we default to global installs rather than local.

So, the default usage would be:

use lazy;

If you want to install to a local lib, use local::lib first:

use local::lib qw( my-local-lib );
use lazy    q( -L my-local-lib );

CAVEATS

* Remove lazy before you put your work into production.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This entire idea was ripped off from Acme::Magic::Pony. The main difference is that we use App::cpm rather than CPAN::Shell.
