Mo::import(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Mo::import — the special import feature for Mo::Inline, and honestly? she's a whole vibe. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay bestie, here's the tea ☕ — this is exactly what it looks like:

package MyMo;
# use Mo qw[default builder import];

package SomeClass;
use MyMo;

has foo => (builder => 'build_foo');

see how import just... sits there at the end of the list? yeah. that's the whole point. she's the main character of the list. 👑

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the situation. say you're building your own Mo class for a project (iconic of you, fr fr), and you want it to always come with a default set of features built in. the move? add import to the very end of that list. 💅

then whenever somebody writes:

use MyMo;

they get the default set, which is default and builder. no cap, that's just what shows up. 🦋

but wait, what if you only want default and not the whole bundle? say less:

use MyMo 'default';

and if a particular class wants absolutely no features at all — like, none, zero, empty — you hit her with:

use MyMo '';

lowkey important: that's an empty string '', not nothing. it's a whole mood but it's still a real argument. ✨

---

🙈 NOTE 🙈

real talk, bestie: this feature is probably not useful, and possibly problematic, outside of Mo::Inline usage. that's the actual documented take. don't say nobody told you. 💀
