NAME
    Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base - A Base Class for Gentoo MetaEbuild
    Specifications.

VERSION
    version 0.1.4

SYNOPSIS
        use Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base; # or some derived class
        Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base->check( $datastructure );

    This base-class only validates the most basic of basic, that the data is
    a { } using Data::Rx and using the shipped File::ShareDir v1.0.0.json
    spec to do that.

    This will be more practical in consuming classes as they'll override
    selected methods/ship different spec files, but maintain the same useful
    interface.

METHODS
  check
        Packagename->check( $datastructure );

        Packagename->check( $datastructure, \%opts );

        Packagename->check( $datastructure, { version => '0.1.0' });

EXTENDING
    Extending should be this simple:

        package FooBarBaz;
        use Moose;
        extends 'Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base';

        1;

    and then ship a directory of Data::Rx spec files as the Module ShareDir
    for that module.

TESTING
    The only fun thing with testing is the File::ShareDir directory hasn't
    been installed yet, but its simple to get around.

        use FindBin;
        use Path::Class qw( dir );
        use Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base;

        Gentoo::MetaEbuild::Spec::Base->_spec_dir(
            dir($FindBin::Bin)->parent->subdir('share')
        );

        # Code as per usual.

        my $shareroot = dir($FindBin::Bin)->parent();
