NAME¶
Test::File::ShareDir - Create a Fake ShareDir for your modules for testing.
VERSION¶
version 0.3.1
SYNOPSIS¶
use Test::More;
# use FindBin; optional
use Test::File::ShareDir
# -root => "$FindBin::Bin/../" # optional,
-share => {
-module => { 'My::Module' => 'share/MyModule' }
-dist => { 'My-Dist' => 'share/somefolder' }
};
use My::Module;
use File::ShareDir qw( module_dir dist_dir );
module_dir( 'My::Module' ) # dir with files from $dist/share/MyModule
dist_dir( 'My-Dist' ) # dir with files from $dist/share/somefolder
DESCRIPTION¶
This module only has support for creating 'new' style share dirs and are NOT
compatible with old File::ShareDirs.
For this reason, unless you have File::ShareDir 1.00 or later installed, this
module will not be usable by you.
IMPORTING¶
-root¶
This parameter is the prefix the other paths are relative to.
If this parameter is not specified, it defaults to the Current Working Directory
( "CWD" ).
In versions prior to 0.3.0, this value was mandatory.
The rationale behind using "CWD" as the default value is as follows.
- •
- Most users of this module are likely to be using it to test
distributions
- •
- Most users of this module will be using it in
"$project/t/" to load files from
"$project/share/"
- •
- Most "CPAN" tools run tests with "CWD"
= $project
Therefor, defaulting to "CWD" is a reasonably sane default for most
people, but where it is not it can still be overridden.
-root => "$FindBin::Bin/../" # resolves to project root from t/ regardless of Cwd.
-share¶
This parameter is mandatory, and contains a "hashref" containing the
data that explains what directories you want shared.
-share => { ..... }
-module
"-module" contains a "hashref" mapping Module names to path
names for module_dir style share dirs.
-share => {
-module => { 'My::Module' => 'share/mymodule/', }
}
...
module_dir('My::Module')
Notedly, it is a "hashref", which means there is a limitation of one
share dir per module. This is simply because having more than one share dir
per module makes no sense at all.
-dist
"-dist" contains a "hashref" mapping Distribution names to
path names for dist_dir style share dirs. The same limitation applied to
"-module" applies here.
-share => {
-dist => { 'My-Dist' => 'share/mydist' }
}
...
dist_dir('My-Dist')
