NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Modules::RequireVersionVar - Give every module a "$VERSION" number.AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.DESCRIPTION
Every Perl file (modules, libraries, and programs) should have a $VERSION variable. The $VERSION allows clients to insist on a particular revision of your file like this:use SomeModule 2.4; #Only loads version 2.4
This Policy scans your file for any package variable named $VERSION. I'm assuming that you are using "strict", so you'll have to declare it like one of these:
our $VERSION = 1.0611; $MyPackage::VERSION = 1.061; use vars qw($VERSION); use version; our $VERSION = qv(1.0611);
A common practice is to use the "$Revision: 3809 $" keyword to automatically define the $VERSION variable like this:
our ($VERSION) = '$Revision: 3809 $' =~ m{ \$Revision: \s+ (\S+) }x;
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.NOTES
Conway recommends using the "version" pragma instead of raw numbers or 'v-strings.' However, this Policy only insists that the $VERSION be defined somehow. I may try to extend this in the future.TO DO
Add check that $VERSION is independently evaluatable. In particular, prohibit this:our $VERSION = $Other::Module::VERSION;
This doesn't work because PAUSE and other tools literally copy your version declaration out of your module and evaluates it in isolation, at which point there's nothing in "Other::Module", and so the $VERSION is undefined.
