NAME

Mojo::Loader - Loader

SYNOPSIS

  use Mojo::Loader;

  # Find modules in a namespace
  my $loader = Mojo::Loader->new;
  for my $module (@{$loader->search('Some::Namespace')}) {

    # Load them safely
    my $e = $loader->load($module);
    warn qq{Loading "$module" failed: $e} and next if ref $e;

    # And extract files from the DATA section
    say $loader->data($module, 'some_file.txt');
  }

DESCRIPTION

Mojo::Loader is a class loader and plugin framework.

METHODS

Mojo::Loader inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

data

  my $all   = $loader->data('Foo::Bar');
  my $index = $loader->data('Foo::Bar', 'index.html');

Extract embedded file from the DATA section of a class.

  say for keys %{$loader->data('Foo::Bar')};

load

  my $e = $loader->load('Foo::Bar');

Load a class and catch exceptions. Note that classes are checked for a new method to see if they are already loaded.

  if (my $e = $loader->load('Foo::Bar')) {
    die ref $e ? "Exception: $e" : 'Already loaded!';
  }
  my $modules = $loader->search('MyApp::Namespace');

Search for modules in a namespace non-recursively.
