Module::Build::Prereqs::FromCPANfile - construct prereq parameters of Module::Build from cpanfile

SYNOPSIS

    use Module::Build;
    use Module::Build::Prereqs::FromCPANfile;

DESCRIPTION

This simple module reads cpanfile and converts its content into valid prereq parameters for new() method of Module::Build.

Currently it does not support "optional features" specification (See "feature" in cpanfile).

EXPORTED FUNCTION

The following function is exported by default.

%prereq_params = mb_prereqs_from_cpanfile(%args)

Reads cpanfile, parses its content and returns corresponding %prereq_params for Module::Build.

Fields in %args are:

"version" => VERSION_STR (optional, default: $Module::Build::VERSION): Version number of the target Module::Build.
If omitted, Module::Build is loaded and $Module::Build::VERSION is used.
"cpanfile" => FILEPATH (optional, default: "cpanfile"): File path to the cpanfile to be loaded.
If omitted, it loads "cpanfile" in the current directory.
