I'm playing around with writing modules in Raku, when it made sense for me to break a piece of functionality off into another .rakumod
file. How can I link these files together when I compile?
I tried to pull the other module to my main module via:
use MyProject::OtherModule;
But I get an error that it can't find this module even though they're side by side in the directory. I tried looking at some OSS projects in the Raku world, most of them are one file, the compiler Rakudo seems to use multiple module files but I can't figure out how they're linked.
Do I have to publish this module every time I want to run my project? How do I structure this if my project gets huge? Surely the best solution isn't to have it all in one file?
Edit: I should also note that I used this at the top of my new module too:
unit module MyProject::OtherModule;
When running locally, if you have your META6.json declared, you can use
raku -I. script.raku
and it will use the uninstalled versions, and you don't need to add any use lib
in the script.
