This module extends the ExtUtils::ModuleMaker manpage to use Template Toolkit 2 (TT2) to build skeleton files for a new module. Templates may either be default templates supplied within the module or user-customized templates in a directory specified with the TEMPLATE_DIR parameter.
Summary of Features/Enhancements:
- Supports building full module skeletons with all the functionality of ExtUtils::ModuleMaker
- Supports adding a single .pm file (and corresponding .t file) to an existing module distribution tree
- Supports creating skeleton text for a single method (generally to be called via a script from within your favorite editor)
- Creates a template directory containing the default templates for subsequent user customization
- Templates can access any parameter in the ExtUtils::ModuleMaker object (e.g. $mmtt, above). This supports transparent, user-extensible template variables for use in custom templates
- Included command-line program makeperlmod provides a command line user interface for module creation. Supports reading default configuration settings from a file and will create a default config file if requested. These config files extend and/or override an ExtUtils::ModuleMaker::Personal::Defaults file. The program can create full distributions, single modules, single methods, default configuration files or default template directories
