NAME

       Module::Depends - identify the dependencies of a distribution

SYNOPSIS

	use Module::Depends;
	my $deps = Module::Depends->new->dist_dir( '.' )->find_modules;
	print "Our dependencies:
", Dump $deps->requires;

DESCRIPTION

       Module::Depends extracts module dependencies from an unpacked distribution tree.

       Module::Depends only evaluates the META.yml shipped with a distribution.  This won't be effective until all distributions ship META.yml
       files, so we suggest you take your life in your hands and look at Module::Depends::Intrusive.

METHODS

   new
       simple constructor

   dist_dir
       Path where the distribution has been extracted to.

   find_modules
       scan the "dist_dir" to populate "libs", "requires", "configure_requires", "test_requires", and "build_requires"

   libs
       an array reference of lib lines

   requires
       A reference to a hash enumerating the prerequisite modules for this distribution.

   configure_requires
       A reference to a hash enumerating the prerequisite modules to configure this distribution.

   build_requires
       A reference to a hash enumerating the modules needed to build the distribution.

   error
       A reason, if any, for failing to get dependencies.
