(Check or update versions of Perl modules)
module-version.t [--update]
Perl 5.12 or later, the Perl6::Slurp module, and the JSON::PP Perl module, both of which are available from CPAN. JSON::PP is also included in Perl core in Perl 5.14 and later.
This script has a dual purpose as either a test script or a utility script. The intent is to assist with maintaining consistent versions in a Perl distribution, supporting both the package keyword syntax introduced in Perl 5.12 or the older explicit setting of a $VERSION variable.
As a test, it reads the current version of a package from the MYMETA.json file in the current directory (which should be the root of the distribution) and then looks for any Perl modules in lib. If it finds any, it checks that the version number of the Perl module matches the version number of the package from the MYMETA.json file. These test results are reported with Test::More, suitable for any TAP harness.
As a utility script, when run with the --update option, it similarly finds all Perl modules in lib and then rewrites their version setting to match the version of the package as determined from the MYMETA.json file.
Rather than test the Perl modules for the correct version, update all Perl
modules found in the tree under lib to the current version from the
MYMETA.json file.
