Devel::...rPackage(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, real talk: this page is Devel::...rPackage(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual, and the actual module is Devel::InnerPackage — it finds all the inner packages of a package. Slay. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Foo::Bar;
use Devel::InnerPackage qw(list_packages);

my @inner_packages = list_packages('Foo::Bar');

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So picture a file like this, okay?

package Foo::Bar;

sub foo {}

package Foo::Bar::Quux;

sub quux {}

package Foo::Bar::Quirka;

sub quirka {}

1;

Then this little icon right here:

list_packages('Foo::Bar');

will return:

Foo::Bar::Quux
Foo::Bar::Quirka

Periodt. 💅

🎀 METHODS 🎀
