NAME

Module::Version - Get module versions

VERSION

Version 0.12

SYNOPSIS

This module fetches the version of any other module.

It comes with a CLI program mversion which does the same.

    use Module::Version 'get_version';

    print get_version('Search::GIN'), "\n";

Or using mversion:

    $ mversion Search::GIN
    0.04

    $ mversion Doesnt::Exist
    Warning: module 'Doesnt::Exist' does not seem to be installed.

    $ mversion --quiet Doesnt::Exist
    (no output)

    $ mversion --full Search::GIN Moose
    Search::GIN 0.04
    Moose 1.01

    $ mversion --input modules.txt
    Search::GIN 0.04
    Data::Collector 0.03
    Moose 1.01
