NAME

Module::Extract::VERSION - Extract a module version without running code

SYNOPSIS

use Module::Extract::VERSION;

This module lets you pull out of module source code the version number for the module. It assumes that there is only one $VERSION in the file.

$class->parse_version_safely( FILE );: Given a module file, return the module version. This works just like mldistwatch in PAUSE. It looks for the single line that has the $VERSION statement, extracts it, evals it, and returns the result.

This code is in Github:

git://github.com/briandfoy/module-extract-version.git

brian d foy, <bdfoy@cpan.org>

I stole the some of this code from mldistwatch in the PAUSE code by Andreas König, but I've moved most of it around.

You may redistribute this under the same terms as Perl itself.

To install Module::Extract::VERSION, copy and paste the appropriate command in to your terminal.

cpanm Module::Extract::VERSION

perl -MCPAN -e shell
install Module::Extract::VERSION
