NAME

       DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Optional::Dependencies - Optional module dependency
       specifications (for module authors)

SYNOPSIS

       Somewhere in your build-file (e.g. Module::Install's Makefile.PL):

         ...

         configure_requires 'DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader' => '0.07039';

         require DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Optional::Dependencies;

         my $use_moose_deps = DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Optional::Dependencies->req_list_for ('use_moose');

         for (keys %$use_moose_deps) {
           requires $_ => $use_moose_deps->{$_};
         }

         ...

       Note that there are some caveats regarding "configure_requires()", more info can be found
       at "configure_requires" in Module::Install

DESCRIPTION

       Some of the features of DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader have external module dependencies on
       their own. In order not to burden the average user with modules he will never use, these
       optional dependencies are not included in the base Makefile.PL. Instead an exception with
       a descriptive message is thrown when a specific feature is missing one or several modules
       required for its operation. This module is the central holding place for  the current list
       of such dependencies.

CURRENT REQUIREMENT GROUPS

       Dependencies are organized in "groups" and each group can list one or more required
       modules, with an optional minimum version (or 0 for any version).

   dbicdump config file
       Modules required for using a config file with dbicdump

       •   Config::Any

       Requirement group: dbicdump_config

   dbicdump config file testing
       Modules required for using testing using a config file with dbicdump

       •   Config::Any

       •   Config::General

       Requirement group: test_dbicdump_config

   POD testing
       Modules required for testing POD in this distribution

       •   Pod::Simple >= 3.22

       •   Test::Pod >= 1.14

       Requirement group: test_pod

   use_moose
       Modules required for the use_moose option

       •   Moose >= 1.12

       •   MooseX::MarkAsMethods >= 0.13

       •   MooseX::NonMoose >= 0.16

       •   namespace::autoclean >= 0.09

       Requirement group: use_moose

METHODS

   req_group_list
       Arguments: $none
       Returns: \%list_of_requirement_groups

       This method should be used by DBIx::Class packagers, to get a hashref of all dependencies
       keyed by dependency group. Each key (group name) can be supplied to one of the group-
       specific methods below.

   req_list_for
       Arguments: $group_name
       Returns: \%list_of_module_version_pairs

       This method should be used by DBIx::Class extension authors, to determine the version of
       modules a specific feature requires in the current version of DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader.
       See the "SYNOPSIS" for a real-world example.

   req_ok_for
       Arguments: $group_name
       Returns: 1|0

       Returns true or false depending on whether all modules required by $group_name are present
       on the system and loadable

   req_missing_for
       Arguments: $group_name
       Returns: $error_message_string

       Returns a single line string suitable for inclusion in larger error messages.  This method
       would normally be used by DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader maintainers, to indicate to the user
       that he needs to install specific modules before he will be able to use a specific
       feature.

       For example if some of the requirements for "use_moose" are not available, the returned
       string could look like:

        Moose >= 0 (see use_moose for details)

       The author is expected to prepend the necessary text to this message before returning the
       actual error seen by the user.

   req_errorlist_for
       Arguments: $group_name
       Returns: \%list_of_loaderrors_per_module

       Returns a hashref containing the actual errors that occurred while attempting to load each
       module in the requirement group.
