NAME

Module::Pod

SYNOPSIS

use Module::Loader;
use Module::Pod;

my $l = Module::Loader.new(module => <Seq::Bounded>);
say describe-compunit($l.compunit);
say Module::Pod.new(:loader($l)).pod

use Module::Pod;

my $pod1 = pod-from-module(Module::Loader);

DESCRIPTION

This module is able to load external Perl 6 modules and provide the documentation object from its $=pod variable. This allows, for example, running tests against the documentation, without requiring special hooks in the external module to expose that variable.

Module::Pod exports a helper function, pod-from-module(), which accepts either a string (short-name) or a type object specifying the external module desired. It returns a containing Pod::Block objects, exactly as $=pod does within it's own compilation unit.

ATTRIBUTES

• loader - An object of type Module::Loader, specifying the external module

METHODS

Return the $=pod from the module, precompiling if necessary

EXPORTS
