NAME

ouse - syntactic sugar to make Mouse one-liners easier

SYNOPSIS

  # create a Mouse class on the fly ...
  perl -Mouse=Foo -e 'has bar => ( is=>q[ro], default => q[baz] ); print Foo->new->bar' # prints baz
  # loads an existing class (Mouse or non-Mouse)
  # and re-"opens" the package definition to make
  # debugging/introspection easier
  perl -Mouse=+My::Class -e 'print join ", " => __PACKAGE__->meta->get_method_list'

DESCRIPTION

ouse.pm is a simple source filter that adds "package $name; use Mouse;" to the beginning of your script and was entirely created because typing perl "-e'package Foo; use Mouse; ...'" was annoying me... especially after getting used to having "-Moose" for Moose.

INTERFACE

"ouse" provides exactly one method and it is automatically called by perl:

"oose->import()">
Pass a package name to import to be used by the source filter.

DEPENDENCIES

You will need Filter::Simple and eventually Mouse

INCOMPATIBILITIES

None reported. But it is a source filter and might have issues there.

SEE ALSO

oose for "perl -Moose -e '...'"

AUTHOR

...who wrote oose.pm, which was adapted for use by Mouse by:

Ricardo SIGNES "<rjbs@cpan.org>"
