Exporter::Lite is an alternative to Exporter, intended to provide a
lightweight subset of the most commonly-used functionality. It supports
import(), @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK and not a whole lot else.
.
Unlike Exporter, it is not necessary to inherit from Exporter::Lite (ie. no
@ISA = qw(Exporter::Lite) mantra). Exporter::Lite simply exports its import()
function into your namespace. This might be called a "mix-in" or a "role".
.
Setting up a module to export its variables and functions is simple:
.
package My::Module;
use Exporter::Lite;
.
@EXPORT = qw($Foo bar);
.
Functions and variables listed in the @EXPORT package variable are
automatically exported if you use the module and don't explicitly list any
imports. Now, when you use My::Module, $Foo and bar() will show up.
