NAME

Z - collection of modules for rapid app development

SYNOPSIS

This:

 use Z;

Is a shortcut for:

 use strict;
 use warnings;
 use feature 'say', 'state';
 use namespace::autoclean;
 use Syntax::Keyword::Try 'try';
 use Zydeco::Lite -all;
 use Path::Tiny 'path';
 use Object::Adhoc 'object';
 use match::simple 'match';
 use Types::Standard -types, -is, -assert;
 use Types::Common::String -types, -is, -assert;
 use Types::Common::Numeric -types, -is, -assert;
 use Types::Path::Tiny -types, -is, -assert;

It will also do no indirect if indirect is installed.

DESCRIPTION

Just a shortcut for loading a bunch of modules that allow you to quickly code Perl stuff. I've tried to avoid too many domain-specific modules like HTTP::Tiny, JSON, etc. The modules chosen should be broadly useful for a wide variety of tasks.

Perl Version Compatibility

Z has a compatibility mode where it will use Try::Tiny instead of Syntax::Keyword::Try. Bear in mind that these are not 100% compatible with each other.

It will also load Perl6::Say as a fallback for the say built-in. And will not provide state.

It will also load UNIVERSAL::DOES if there's no built-in UNIVERSAL::DOES method.

You can specify whether you want the modern modules or the compatibility modules:

 use Z -modern;
 # Uses modern modules.
 # Requres Perl 5.14+.
 
 use Z -compat;
 # Uses compatible modules.
 # Requires Perl 5.8.8+.
 
 use Z -detect;
 # Uses modern modules on Perl 5.14+.
 # Prints a warning and uses compatible modules on Perl 5.8.8+.

The default is -modern.
