NAME

Module::Load::In::INIT - Load modules in INIT phase

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of Module::Load::In::INIT (from Perl distribution Module-Load-In-INIT), released on 2017-07-04.

SYNOPSIS

In the command-line:

% perl -MModule::Load::In::INIT=Mod::One,Mod::Two='Some;Import;Args' somescript.pl

Mod::One and Mod::Two will be loaded in the INIT phase instead of BEGIN phase.

DESCRIPTION

This module can load (or perhaps defer loading) modules in the INIT phase instead of the BEGIN phase. One use-case where it is useful: monkey-patching a module (using a Module::Patch-based module) in a fatpacked script (see Module::FatPack or App::FatPacker), e.g.:

% perl -MSome::Module::Patch::Foo fatpacked-script.pl

Some::Module::Patch::Foo will try to load Some::Module then patch it. This will fail when module is loaded by the fatpack handler (which is a require hook) as by the time Some::Module::Patch::Foo is loaded, the fatpack handler has not been setup yet. This, however, works:

% perl -MModule::Load::In::INIT=Some::Module::Patch::Foo fatpacked-script.pl
