Note that there are some caveats regarding C<configure_requires()>, more info can be found at L<Module::Install/configure_requires> =head1 DESCRIPTION Some of the features of L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader> have external module dependencies on their own. In order not to burden the average user with modules he will never use, these optional dependencies are not included in the base Makefile.PL. Instead an exception with a descriptive message is thrown when a specific feature is missing one or several modules required for its operation. This module is the central holding place for the current list of such dependencies. =head1 CURRENT REQUIREMENT GROUPS Dependencies are organized in C<groups> and each group can list one or more required modules, with an optional minimum version (or 0 for any version). =head2 dbicdump config file Modules required for using a config file with dbicdump =over =item * Config::Any =back Requirement group: B<dbicdump_config> =head2 dbicdump config file testing Modules required for using testing using a config file with dbicdump =over =item * Config::Any =item * Config::General =back Requirement group: B<test_dbicdump_config> =head2 use_moose Modules required for the use_moose option =over =item * Moose >= 1.12 =item * MooseX::MarkAsMethods >= 0.13 =item * MooseX::NonMoose >= 0.16 =item * namespace::autoclean >= 0.09 =back Requirement group: B<use_moose> =head1 METHODS =head2 req_group_list =over =item Arguments: $none =item Returns: \%list_of_requirement_groups =back This method should be used by DBIx::Class packagers, to get a hashref of all dependencies keyed by dependency group. Each key (group name) can be supplied to one of the group-specific methods below. =head2 req_list_for =over =item Arguments: $group_name =item Returns: \%list_of_module_version_pairs =back This method should be used by DBIx::Class extension authors, to determine the version of modules a specific feature requires in the B<current> version of L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader>. See the L</SYNOPSIS> for a real-world example. =head2 req_ok_for =over =item Arguments: $group_name =item Returns: 1|0 =back Returns true or false depending on whether all modules required by C<$group_name> are present on the system and loadable =head2 req_missing_for =over =item Arguments: $group_name =item Returns: $error_message_string =back Returns a single line string suitable for inclusion in larger error messages. This method would normally be used by L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader> maintainers, to indicate to the user that he needs to install specific modules before he will be able to use a specific feature. For example if some of the requirements for C<use_moose> are not available, the returned string could look like: Moose >= 0 (see use_moose for details) The author is expected to prepend the necessary text to this message before returning the actual error seen by the user. =head2 req_errorlist_for =over =item Arguments: $group_name =item Returns: \%list_of_loaderrors_per_module =back Returns a hashref containing the actual errors that occured while attempting to load each module in the requirement group. =head1 AUTHOR See L<DBIx::Class/CONTRIBUTORS>. =head1 LICENSE You may distribute this code under the same terms as Perl itself
