Download the tarball and unpack it. .PP Consult the file \s-1META\s0.json for a list of pre-requisites. Install these first. .PP To build Type-Tiny: .PP .Vb 2 \& % perl Makefile.PL \& % make && make test .Ve .PP Then install it: .PP .Vb 1 \& % make install .Ve .PP If you are installing into a system-wide directory, you may need to run: .PP .Vb 1 \& % sudo make install .Ve .SS "Dependencies" .IX Subsection "Dependencies" Type::Tiny requires at least Perl 5.8.1, though certain Unicode-related features (e.g. non-ASCII type constraint names) may work better in newer versions of Perl. .PP Type::Tiny requires Exporter::Tiny, a module that was previously bundled in this distribution, but has since been spun off as a separate distribution. Don't worry \- it's quick and easy to install. .PP At run-time, Type::Tiny also requires the following Perl modules: B, B::Deparse, Carp, Data::Dumper, Scalar::Util, Text::Balanced, overload, strict, and warnings. All of these come bundled with Perl itself. .PP Certain features require additional modules. Stack traces on exceptions require Devel::StackTrace. The Reply::Plugin::TypeTiny plugin for Reply requires Reply (obviously). .PP Type::Tiny::XS is not required, but if available provides a speed boost for some type checks. (Setting the environment variable \&\f(CW\*(C`PERL_TYPE_TINY_XS\*(C'\fR to false, or setting \f(CW\*(C`PERL_ONLY\*(C'\fR to true will suppress the use of Type::Tiny::XS, even if it is available.) .PP The test suite additionally requires Test::More, Test::Fatal and Test::Requires. Test::More comes bundled with Perl, but if you are using a version of Perl older than 5.14, you will need to upgrade to at least Test::More version 0.96. Test::Requires and Test::Fatal (plus Try::Tiny which Test::Fatal depends on) are bundled with Type::Tiny in the \f(CW\*(C`inc\*(C'\fR directory, so you do not need to install them separately. .PP If using Type::Tiny in conjunction with Moo, then at least Moo 1.006000 is recommended. If using Type::Tiny with Moose, then at least Moose 2.0000 is recommended. If using Type::Tiny with Mouse, then at least Mouse 1.00 is recommended. Type::Tiny is mostly untested against older versions of these packages. .PP \fIType::Tiny and cperl\fR .IX Subsection "Type::Tiny and cperl" .PP cperl is an extended version of Perl with various incompatible changes from the official Perl 5 releases. .PP As of Type::Tiny 1.010001, cperl is a supported platform for Type::Tiny with some caveats. At the time of writing, Moose will not install on the latest cperl releases, so using Type::Tiny with Moose on cperl is untested. Moo can be forced to install, and Type::Tiny is verified to work with Moo on cperl. cperl not only enables a new warnings category called \*(L"shadow\*(R" (which is good; they're potentially useful) but switches on shadow warnings by default (which is annoying). Type::Tiny does not (and likely will never) attempt to work around these warnings. If the warnings bother you, you should be able to catch them using \f(CW$SIG{_\|_WARN_\|_}\fR. Certain features of Eval::TypeTiny are broken under cperl, but they're not thought to have any practical effect on Type::Tiny or its other bundled modules. .SH "NEXT STEPS" .IX Header "NEXT STEPS" Here's your next step: .IP "\(bu" 4 Type::Tiny::Manual::UsingWithMoo .Sp Basic use of Type::Tiny with Moo, including attribute type constraints, parameterized type constraints, coercions, and method parameter checking. .SH "AUTHOR" .IX Header "AUTHOR" Toby Inkster . .SH "COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE" This software is copyright (c) 2013\-2014, 2017\-2023 by Toby Inkster. .PP This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself. .SH "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES" .IX Header "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES" \&\s-1THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED \*(L"AS IS\*(R" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.\s0
