NAME

       Specio::Library::Perl - Implements type constraint objects for some common Perl language
       things

VERSION

       version 0.42

DESCRIPTION

       This library provides some additional string types for common cases.

   PackageName
       A valid package name. Unlike the "ClassName" constraint from the Specio::Library::Builtins
       library, this package does not need to be loaded.

       This type does allow Unicode characters.

   ModuleName
       Same as "PackageName".

   DistName
       A valid distribution name like "DBD-Pg" Basically this is the same as a package name with
       the double-colons replaced by dashes. Note that there are some historical distribution
       names that don't fit this pattern, like "CGI.pm".

       This type does allow Unicode characters.

   Identifier
       An Identifier is something that could be used as a symbol name or other identifier
       (filehandle, directory handle, subroutine name, format name, or label). It's what you put
       after the sigil (dollar sign, at sign, percent sign) in a variable name. Generally, it's a
       bunch of word characters not starting with a digit.

       This type does allow Unicode characters.

   SafeIdentifier
       This is just like an "Identifier" but it excludes the single-character variables
       underscore ("_"), "a"< and "b", as these are special variables to the Perl interpreter.

   LaxVersionStr and StrictVersionStr
       Lax and strict version strings use the is_lax and is_strict methods from "version" to
       check if the given string would be a valid lax or strict version. version::Internals
       covers the details but basically: lax versions are everything you may do, and strict omit
       many of the usages best avoided.

   CREDITS
       Much of the code and docs for this library comes from MooseX::Types::Perl, written by
       Ricardo SIGNES <rjbs@cpan.org>.
