NAME

       Module::Build::Tiny - A tiny replacement for Module::Build

VERSION

       version 0.034

SYNOPSIS

        use Module::Build::Tiny;
        Build_PL();

DESCRIPTION

       Many Perl distributions use a Build.PL file instead of a Makefile.PL file to drive distribution
       configuration, build, test and installation.  Traditionally, Build.PL uses Module::Build as the
       underlying build system.  This module provides a simple, lightweight, drop-in replacement.

       Whereas Module::Build has over 6,700 lines of code; this module has less than 120, yet supports the
       features needed by most distributions.

   Supported
       •   Pure Perl distributions

       •   Building XS or C

       •   Recursive test files

       •   MYMETA

       •   Man page generation

       •   Generated code from PL files

   Not Supported
       •   Dynamic prerequisites

       •   HTML documentation generation

       •   Extending Module::Build::Tiny

       •   Module sharedirs

   Directory structure
       Your  .pm and .pod files must be in lib/.  Any executables must be in script/.  Test files must be in t/.
       Dist sharedirs must be in share/.

USAGE

       These all work pretty much like their Module::Build equivalents.

   perl Build.PL
   Build [ build ]
   Build test
   Build install
       This supports the following options:

       •   verbose

       •   install_base

       •   installdirs

       •   prefix

       •   install_path

       •   destdir

       •   uninst

       •   config

       •   pure-perl

       •   create_packlist

AUTHORING

       This  module  doesn't  support  authoring.  To  develop  modules  using  Module::Build::Tiny,  usage   of
       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ModuleBuildTiny or App::ModuleBuildTiny is recommended.

CONFIG FILE AND ENVIRONMENT

       Options  can  be  provided  in  the  "PERL_MB_OPT"  environment  variable  the  same  way  they  can with
       Module::Build. This should be done during the configuration stage.

   Incompatibilities
       •   Argument parsing

           Module::Build has an extremely permissive way of argument handling, Module::Build::Tiny only supports
           a (sane) subset of that. In particular, "./Build destdir=/foo" does not work, you will need  to  pass
           it as "./Build --destdir=/foo".

       •   .modulebuildrc

           Module::Build::Tiny does not support .modulebuildrc files. In particular, this means that versions of
           local::lib older than 1.006008 may break. Upgrading it resolves this issue.
