🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the tea ☕: this extension adds support for configure-time dynamic prerequisites to Dist::Build. That's the whole vibe. Iconic.

---

👑 DELEGATES 👑

It adds the following delegates to the planner, and honestly? They're both serving:

💅 evaluate_dynamic_prereqs()

This one evaluates the dynamic prerequisites (as CPAN::Requirements::Dynamic) that are chillin' in the metadata, and then adds them to the prerequisites. Slay.

🍓 add_prereq($module, $version = 0, %args)

This adds one specific prerequisite. Note the $version = 0 — that's the default, no cap. It also takes these optional named arguments:

• phase — a CPAN::Meta requirement phase. Your options are runtime (the default, lowkey the main character), build, or test.
• relation — a CPAN::Meta requirement relation. Options are requires (the default), recommends, or suggests.
