=head1 NAME

Acme::Constructor::Pythonic - import Python-style constructor functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Acme::Constructor::Pythonic qw(
        LWP::UserAgent
        JSON
        HTTP::Request
    );
    
    my $json = JSON();
    my $ua   = UserAgent();
    my $req  = Request( GET => 'http://www.example.com/foo.json' );
    
    my $data = $json->decode( $ua->request($req)->content )

=head1 DESCRIPTION

In Python you import classes like this:

    import BankAccount from banking

And you instantiate them with something looking like a function call:

    acct = BankAccount(9.99)

This module allows Python-like object instantiation in Perl. The example in
the SYNOPSIS creates three functions C<UserAgent>, C<JSON> and <Request> each
of which just pass through their arguments to the real object constructors.

=head2 Options

Each argument to the Acme::Constructor::Pythonic is a Perl module name and
may be followed by a hashref of options:

    use Acme::Constructor::Pythonic
        'A::Module',
        'Another::Module' => \%some_options,
        'Yes::Another::Module',
    ;

=over

=item *

B<class>

The class to call the constructor on. This is normally the same as the module
name, and that's the default assumption, so there's no usually much point in
providing it.

=item *

B<constructor>

The method name for the constructor. The default is C<new> which is usually
correct.

=item *

B<alias>

The name of the function you want created for you. The default is the last
component of the module name, which is often sensible.

=item *

B<no_require>

Acme::Constructor::Python will automatically load the module specified. Not
straight away; it waits until you actually perform an instantiation. If you
don't want Acme::Constructor::Python to load the module, then set this option
to true.
