    summary => 'List of my modules/frameworks which use a particular plugin system style',
    description => <<'_',

This is a personal list of my modules/frameworks which use a particular plugin
system style which I will someday extract into its own framework
(<pm:Plugin::System>). (And I am also slowly converting more of my
plugin-supporting projects to use this style). Some of the features of this
particular plugin style:

* a plugin can be installed more than once and parameterized (like in <pm:Dist::Zilla> or <pm:Pod::Weaver>) [flexibility];
* execution order of plugins is by priority, then by its order of activation;
* a plugin has a default priority value but the value can be overriden by user [flexibility];
* a plugin has a default event in which it participates, but user can overrides this [flexibility];
* support for repeating an event [flexibility];
* support for skipping (aborting) an event [flexibility];

=head1 NAME

Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::PluginSystem - List of my modules/frameworks which use a particular plugin system style

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::PluginSystem (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModules-PERLANCAR-PluginSystem), released on 2023-07-23.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a personal list of my modules/frameworks which use a particular plugin
system style which I will someday extract into its own framework
(L<Plugin::System>). (And I am also slowly converting more of my
plugin-supporting projects to use this style). Some of the features of this
particular plugin style:

=over

=item * a plugin can be installed more than once and parameterized (like in L<Dist::Zilla> or L<Pod::Weaver>) [flexibility];

=item * execution order of plugins is by priority, then by its order of activation;

=item * a plugin has a default priority value but the value can be overriden by user [flexibility];

=item * a plugin has a default event in which it participates, but user can overrides this [flexibility];

=item * support for repeating an event [flexibility];

=item * support for skipping (aborting) an event [flexibility];

=item L<ScriptX>

Author: L<PERLANCAR|https://metacpan.org/author/PERLANCAR>

Started in late 2019, this is the first framework where the I thought out the
rough feature set that I want. ScriptX was written to eventually replace
L<Perinci::CmdLine>: I want a framework that can be used to write web
scripts/form handlers as well as CLI scripts, with more flexibility in composing
behavior/functionality (i.e. plugin-based). But turns out I haven't had enough
time to hack on it, and making CLI scripts are 99% of what I use Perl for; thus
Perinci::CmdLine lives on for now (with plugins since 1.900).


=item L<Perinci::CmdLine::Lite>

Author: L<PERLANCAR|https://metacpan.org/author/PERLANCAR>

While waiting for L<ScriptX> to get into a usable form, I implemented a
similar system to my CLI framework, L<Perinci::CmdLine> starting from 1.900
(released in Oct 2020).


=item L<Require::HookPlugin>

Another project where I implemented the same plugin system to a require hook
framework. Require::HookPlugin (RHP) was started in July 2023 because I found
hook ordering in L<Require::HookChain> (RHC) to be fragile and error-prone.
Plus, I want more customizability and composability than what RHC provides.

=head1 FAQ

=head2 What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module
names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and
document CPAN. See L<Acme::CPANModules> for more details.

=head2 What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?

Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can
install all the listed modules (entries) using L<cpanm-cpanmodules> script (from
L<App::cpanm::cpanmodules> distribution):

 % cpanm-cpanmodules -n PERLANCAR::PluginSystem

Alternatively you can use the L<cpanmodules> CLI (from L<App::cpanmodules>
distribution):

    % cpanmodules ls-entries PERLANCAR::PluginSystem | cpanm -n

or L<Acme::CM::Get>:

    % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=PERLANCAR::PluginSystem -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

or directly:

    % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::PluginSystem -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::PERLANCAR::PluginSystem::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

This Acme::CPANModules module also helps L<lcpan> produce a more meaningful
result for C<lcpan related-mods> command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module.
See L<App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods> for more details on how "related modules"
are found.
