Module...yright(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Module::Install::Copyright — bestie, this thing packages a COPYRIGHT file right into your distribution 💖 it's literally the manual for Module...yright in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, 3pm vibe, iykyk 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so in your Makefile.PL you just do this:

write_copyright_file;

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. periodt 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what's the tea ☕ — this module goes digging through the copyright and licensing info that's embedded in your distribution, either from the pod or from the RDF metadata (or both, bestie, it's flexible like that), and it spits all of it out as a text file called COPYRIGHT 📄

and that file? it should roughly conform to the Debian copyright file format. roughly. not perfectly. we're doing our best 🫶

This module provides one function for use in Module::Install-based Makefile.PL scripts:

• write_copyright_file

that's the one. the only one. the main character 👑
