💖 Dist::Zilla::App::Command::externaldeps 💖

okay bestie, so this page is from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and it's all about Dist::Zilla::App::Command::externaldeps, a little command plugin that spills the tea on what your distro needs installed on the actual machine before it'll behave. no cap. ✨

✨ VERSION ✨

version 1.009 — that's the one, that's the vibe 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

so you're on the command line, right? and you just type this:

% dzil externaldeps
man
sqlite3

and boom 💥 out come the external deps, one per line, being all cute and listy about it.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this is a command plugin for Dist::Zilla. it hands you the externaldeps command, and what that command does is print out the external prerequisites — the stuff you declared over in Dist::Zilla::Plugin::RequiresExternal. that's it. that's the whole job. and it ate. 🔥

tl;dr: it's the "hey what does this thing need from the outside world" command.
