NAME

mylib - add private lib to the module search path

SYNOPSIS

  #!/usr/bin/perl -w

  use strict;
  use mylib;

  use Private::Module;

DESCRIPTION

This is just a convenient wrapper around FindBin and lib that will prepend to perl's search path the lib directory either found in the directory of the script or its parent directory. If neither of these locations contain a lib directory it will die.

This makes it easy to create a collection of scripts that share private modules (not to be installed with perl) using the traditional Unix layout of sibling bin, lib, man, etc,... directories.

The following variables can be imported:

$Prefix

This is the directory where the lib directory is found.

$Lib

This is the same as "$Prefix/lib".

$Etc

This is the same as "$Prefix/etc".

$Bin

This will normally either be $Prefix or "$Prefix/bin". It is the same as $FindBin::RealBin.
