💖 MODULES-USED(1p) 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair, because this is modules-used — a lil Perl script (manual section 1p, user-contributed perl docs, iykyk) that tells you which modules some Perl source files are using… without ever running them. ✨

✨ VERSION ✨

This doc describes modules-used version 1.3.0. 🎀

🦋 USAGE 🦋

modules-used source-file [...]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

It dumps a list of modules used by some Perl code. 🔍

Modules get found statically based upon use and require statements. And listen — if use of the base or parent is found, then both that module and the referenced ones will be emitted. The way it just gives you the whole family, no cap. 👑

Dynamically loaded modules will not be found. Not a vibe, but it's the truth. 💀

🎀 REQUIRED ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • X source-file [...] — a list of files to search. (yep, the label literally starts with an X, we keep it real here 🫶)

💅 OPTIONS 💅

None. Zero. Nada. It's giving minimalism, and honestly? Iconic. ✨

🩺 DIAGNOSTICS 🩺

  • Could not find module "%s" in @INC. — it cannot find the location of the named module. Note that this program will not find any dynamically loaded modules. 🙈
  • "%s" does not exist. — cannot find the file. 😭
  • "%s" is not readable. — cannot read the file. 💀
  • "%s" is a directory. — the "file" was actually a directory. bestie. it's a folder. 🫠
  • Could not parse "%s". — PPI could not interpret the file as a Perl document. 🧚

⚙️ CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT ⚙️

None. No env vars, no config files, nothing to tweak. It just works. 💜
