NAME App::FatPacker::Simple - only fatpack a script SYNOPSIS $ fatpack-simple script.pl DESCRIPTION App::FatPacker::Simple or its frontend fatpack-simple helps you fatpack a script when YOU understand the whole dependencies of it. For tutorial, please look at App::FatPacker::Simple::Tutorial. MOTIVATION App::FatPacker::Simple is an alternative for App::FatPacker's fatpack file command. Let me explain why I wrote this module. App::FatPacker brings more portability to Perl, that is totally awesome. As far as I understand, App::FatPacker does 3 things: (a) trace dependencies for a script (b) collects dependencies to fatlib directory (c) fatpack the script with modules in fatlib As for (a), I have often encountered problems. For example, modules that I don't want to trace trace, conversely, modules that I DO want to trace do not trace. Moreover a core module has changed interfaces or has been bug-fixed recently, so we have to fatpack that module with new version, etc. So I think if you author intend to fatpack a script, YOU need to understand the whole dependencies of it. As for (b), to locate modules in a directory, why don't you use carton or cpanm? So the rest is (c) to fatpack a script with modules in directories, on which App::FatPacker::Simple concentrates. That is, App::FatPacker::Simple only fatpacks a script with features: * automatically perl-strip modules * has option to exclude some modules SEE ALSO App::FatPacker App::depak Perl::Strip COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright 2015 Shoichi Kaji This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
