# Perl::APIReference::Generator(3pm)

Generate an APIReference from a perlapi.pod

## NAME

Perl::APIReference::Generator - Generate an APIReference from a perlapi.pod

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Perl::APIReference::Generator;
  my $api = Perl::APIReference::Generator->parse(
    file => 'perlapi.5.10.0.pod',
    perl_version => '5.10.0',
  );
  # $api is now a Perl::APIReference object
```

## DESCRIPTION

Generate a perl API reference object from a *perlapi.pod* file. This is a maintainer's tool and requires Pod::Eventual::Simple and a small change to the main *APIReference.pm* file if the perl API version isn't supported yet.
