Minion is a job queue for the Mojolicious real-time web framework with support for multiple backends, such as DBM::Deep and PostgreSQL. A job queue allows you to process time and/or computationally intensive tasks in background processes, outside of the request/response lifecycle. Among those tasks you'll commonly find image resizing, spam filtering, HTTP downloads, building tarballs, warming caches and basically everything else you can imagine that's not super fast.

Add Mixin::Event::Dispatch in as a parent to your class, and it'll provide some methods for defining event handlers ("subscribe_to_event" or "add_handler_for_event") and calling them ("invoke_event"). Note that handlers should return 0 for a one-off handler, and 1 if it should be called again on the next event.

With Mixin::Linewise::Readers and Mixin::Linewise::Writers, you can just write a method to handle handles, and methods for handling strings and filenames are added for you.

Mo is the bare minimum needed for Perl OO. Many times you'll want just a couple more features. Don't worry. Mo's got you covered. Mo simply loads the feature classes Mo::build, Mo::default, Mo::builder, Mo::coerce, Mo::is and Mo::required. The first one supports BUILD constructing and the other three add their magics to has. A Mo::Feature module can enhance new, extends and has, and also add new export subs, or remove existing ones. Features can also be combined for a single accessor. See Mo::Features for a list of all the features and for an explanation of the Feature API.

Mock-Object provides a declarative mocking interface that results in a very concise, but clear syntax. There are separate facilities for mocking object instances, and classes. You can quickly create an instance of an object with custom attributes and methods. You can also quickly create an anonymous class, optionally inheriting from another, with whatever methods you desire. Mock-Object also provides a tool that provides an OO interface to overriding methods in existing classes. This tool also allows for the restoration of the original class methods. Best of all this is a localized tool, when your control object falls out of scope the original class is restored.

This module deals with the examination of the namespace of Perl modules.

Module::Build::Convert - Makefile.PL to Build.PL converter ExtUtils::MakeMaker has been a de-facto standard for the common distribution of Perl modules; Module::Build is expected to supersede ExtUtils::MakeMaker in some time (part of the Perl core as of 5.10?) The transition takes place slowly, as the converting process manually achieved is yet an uncommon practice. The Module::Build::Convert Makefile.PL parser is intended to ease the transition process.

load() eliminates the need to know whether you are trying to require either a file or a module.

When testing applications, often you find yourself needing to provide functionality in your test environment that would usually be provided by external modules. Rather than munging the %INC by hand to mark these external modules as loaded, so they are not attempted to be loaded by perl, this module offers you a very simple way to mark modules as loaded and/or unloaded.

Module::Build::Kwalitee subclasses Module::Build to provide boilerplate tests for your project. It does this by overriding new() and copying tests to your t directory when you run 'perl Build.PL'.
