import($flag, @args)¶

  use ExportableModule->All;
  # or
  use ExportableModule-Only => qw(Constraint1 ...);
  # or
  use ExportableModule-Library;

Exports the constraints to the calling namespace. This includes all libraries in Declare::Constraints::Simple::Library, that package itself (providing all default constraints) or Declare::Constraints::Simple itself as a shortcut.

Possible flags are

All

Imports all constraints registered in the class and its base classes.

Only

  use Declare::Constraints::Simple::Library::Scalar-Only => 'HasLength';
    

The above line would only import the "HasLength" constraints from the "Scalar" default library. Note however, that you could also just have said

  use Declare::Constraints::Simple-Only => 'HasLength';
    

as both "::Simple" and "::Simple::Library" work on all default libraries.

Library

You can use this to define your own constraint library. For more information, see Declare::Constraints::Simple::Library::Base.
