💖 NAME 💖

MetaCPA...::Module — literally the page that gives you module info for MetaCPAN::API. It's the MetaCPA...::Module(3) page, chillin' in the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and bestie, it's serving exactly what it says on the tin.

✨ VERSION ✨

version 0.51 🎀 (yes, it's giving vintage, and we respect it)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so, this role? It's the glow-up that lets MetaCPAN::API fetch info about modules. That's its whole job, its main character moment, and it ate.

More specifically — and this is the important bit — what you get back is the .pm file of that module. Just the file. No crumbs, no extras, just the .pm. 💅

🌸 METHODS 🌸

🎀 module

my $result = $mcpan->module('MetaCPAN::API');

It searches MetaCPAN and hands you back a module's .pm file. That's it, that's the vibe, and honestly? Obsessed. 🔥

💜 file

Not me having to tell you this... 😭 file used to be a synonym of module, but the functionality has now moved to MetaCPAN::API::File. So it doesn't live here anymore, bestie. It's moved out, got its own place, iykyk.
