NAME

       Pod::Weaver::Role::StringFromComment - Extract a string from a specially formatted comment

VERSION

       version 4.019

OVERVIEW

       This role assists Pod::Weaver sections by allowing them to pull strings from the source
       comments formatted like:

           # KEYNAME: Some string...

       This is probably the most familiar to people using lines like the following to allow the
       Name section to determine a module's abstract:

           # ABSTRACT: Provides the HypnoToad with mind-control powers

       It will extract these strings by inspecting the "ppi_document" which must be given.

PERL VERSION

       This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5
       Porters.  This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to
       three years.  (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module
       should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum
       required version will not be increased.  The version may be increased for any reason, and
       there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

PRIVATE METHODS

       This role supplies only methods meant to be used internally by its consumer.

   _extract_comment_content($ppi_doc, $key)
       Given a key, try to find a comment matching "# $key:" in the $ppi_document and return
       everything but the prefix.

       e.g., given a document with a comment in it of the form:

           # ABSTRACT: Yada yada...

       ...and this is called...

           $self->_extract_comment_content($ppi, 'ABSTRACT')

       ...it returns to us:

           Yada yada...
