NAME

6       Type::Tiny::Manual::Installation - how to install Type::Tiny
7

MANUAL

9       Installing Type-Tiny should be straightforward.
10
11   Installation with cpanminus
12       If you have cpanm, you only need one line:
13
14         % cpanm Type::Tiny
15
16       If you are installing into a system-wide directory, you may need to
17       pass the "-S" flag to cpanm, which uses sudo to install the module:
18
19         % cpanm -S Type::Tiny
20
21   Installation with the CPAN Shell
22       Alternatively, if your CPAN shell is set up, you should just be able to
23       do:
24
25         % cpan Type::Tiny
26
27   Manual Installation
28       As a last resort, you can manually install it. Download the tarball and
29       unpack it.
30
31       Consult the file META.json for a list of pre-requisites. Install these
32       first.
33
34       To build Type-Tiny:
35
36         % perl Makefile.PL
37         % make && make test
38
39       Then install it:
40
41         % make install
42
43       If you are installing into a system-wide directory, you may need to
44       run:
45
46         % sudo make install
47
48   Dependencies
49       Type::Tiny requires at least Perl 5.8.1, though certain Unicode-related
50       features (e.g. non-ASCII type constraint names) may work better in
51       newer versions of Perl.
52
53       Type::Tiny requires Exporter::Tiny, a module that was previously
54       bundled in this distribution, but has since been spun off as a separate
55       distribution. Don't worry - it's quick and easy to install.
56
57       At run-time, Type::Tiny also requires the following Perl modules: B,
58       B::Deparse, Carp, Data::Dumper, Scalar::Util, Text::Balanced, overload,
59       strict, and warnings.  All of these come bundled with Perl itself.
60
61       Certain features require additional modules. Stack traces on exceptions
62       require Devel::StackTrace. The Reply::Plugin::TypeTiny plugin for Reply
63       requires Reply (obviously).
64
65       Type::Tiny::XS is not required, but if available provides a speed boost
66       for some type checks. (Setting the environment variable
67       "PERL_TYPE_TINY_XS" to false, or setting "PERL_ONLY" to true will
68       suppress the use of Type::Tiny::XS, even if it is available.)
69
70       The test suite additionally requires Test::More, Test::Fatal and
71       Test::Requires. Test::More comes bundled with Perl, but if you are
72       using a version of Perl older than 5.14, you will need to upgrade to at
73       least Test::More version 0.96. Test::Requires and Test::Fatal (plus
74       Try::Tiny which Test::Fatal depends on) are bundled with Type::Tiny in
75       the "inc" directory, so you do not need to install them separately.
76
77       If using Type::Tiny in conjunction with Moo, then at least Moo 1.006000
78       is recommended. If using Type::Tiny with Moose, then at least Moose
79       2.0000 is recommended. If using Type::Tiny with Mouse, then at least
80       Mouse 1.00 is recommended. Type::Tiny is mostly untested against older
81       versions of these packages.
82
83       Type::Tiny and cperl
84
85       cperl <http://perl11.org/cperl/> is an extended version of Perl with
86       various incompatible changes from the official Perl 5 releases.
87
88       As of Type::Tiny 1.010001, cperl is a supported platform for Type::Tiny
89       with some caveats. At the time of writing, Moose will not install on
90       the latest cperl releases, so using Type::Tiny with Moose on cperl is
91       untested. Moo can be forced to install, and Type::Tiny is verified to
92       work with Moo on cperl.  cperl not only enables a new warnings category
93       called "shadow" (which is good; they're potentially useful) but
94       switches on shadow warnings by default (which is annoying). Type::Tiny
95       does not (and likely will never) attempt to work around these warnings.
96       If the warnings bother you, you should be able to catch them using
97       $SIG{__WARN__}. Certain features of Eval::TypeTiny are broken under
98       cperl, but they're not thought to have any practical effect on
99       Type::Tiny or its other bundled modules.

105
106           Basic use of Type::Tiny with Moo, including attribute type
107           constraints, parameterized type constraints, coercions, and method
108           parameter checking.
