NAME

       Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite - a tool to scan your Perl code for its prerequisites

SYNOPSIS

         use Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite;
         my $scanner = Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite->new(
           parsers => [qw/:installed -UniversalVersion/],
           suggests => 1,
           perl_minimum_version => 1,
         );
         my $context = $scanner->scan_file('path/to/file');
         my $requirements = $context->requires;
         my $recommends = $context->recommends;
         my $suggestions  = $context->suggests; # requirements in evals
         my $noes = $context->noes;

DESCRIPTION

       Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite is yet another prerequisites scanner. It passes almost
       all the scanning tests for Perl::PrereqScanner and Module::ExtractUse (ie. except for a
       few dubious ones), and runs slightly faster than PPI-based Perl::PrereqScanner. However,
       it doesn't run as fast as Perl::PrereqScanner::Lite (which uses an XS lexer).

       Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite also recognizes "eval".  Prerequisites in "eval" are not
       considered as requirements, but you can collect them as suggestions.

       Conditional requirements or requirements loaded in a block are treated as recommends. Noed
       modules are stored separately (since 0.94).  You may or may not need to merge them into
       requires.

       Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite can also recognize some of the new language features
       such as "say", subroutine signatures, and postfix dereferences, to improve the minimum
       perl requirement (since 0.9905).

METHODS

   new
       creates a scanner object. Options are:

       parsers
           By default, Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite only recognizes modules loaded directly
           by "use", "require", "no" statements, plus modules loaded by a few common modules such
           as "base", "parent", "if" (that are in the Perl core), and by two keywords exported by
           Moose family ("extends" and "with").

           If you need more, you can pass extra parser names to the scanner, or ":bundled", which
           loads and registers all the parsers bundled with this distribution. If you have your
           own parsers, you can specify ":installed" to load and register all the installed
           parsers.

           You can also pass a project-specific parser (that lies outside the
           "Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite::Parser" namespace) by prepending "+" to the name.

             use Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite;
             my $scanner = Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite->new(
               parsers => [qw/+PrereqParser::For::MyProject/],
             );

           If you don't want to load a specific parser for some reason, prepend "-" to the parser
           name.

       suggests
           Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite ignores "use"-like statements in "eval" by default.
           If you set this option to true, Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite also parses
           statements in "eval", and records requirements as suggestions.

       recommends
           Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite usually ignores "require"-like statements in a block
           by default. If you set this option to true, Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite also
           records requirements in a block as recommendations.

       perl_minimum_version
           If you set this option to true, Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite adds a specific
           version of perl as a requirement when it finds some of the new perl language features.

   scan_file
       takes a path to a file and returns a ::Context object.

   scan_string
       takes a string, scans and returns a ::Context object.
