The `exercise-gen.pl6` file can be used in the following ways:
* From within the directory of the exercise you wish to generate a test for. [showterm example](http://showterm.io/cc7ddb7b23bb73e784d7d)
* With arguments specifying which exercises you want to generate tests for.
e.g. `./exercise-gen.pl6 hello-world leap`. [showterm example](http://showterm.io/54d5cf196eb45a0e40640)
* With the argument `--all` to run the generator for all exercises.
i.e `./exercise-gen.pl6 --all`
You will either need to create a symlink to or clone the
[problem-specifications](https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications) repository
into the root directory of this repository.
The generator will retrieve data from an `example.yaml` file within
each exercise directory, and use the contained information to generate
test files using `templates/test.mustache`, and Example.pm6 files using
`templates/module.mustache`. If it finds a `canonical-data.json` file in
`problem-specifications` for the exercise in question it will be included.
Example of a yaml file:
```yaml
exercise: MyExercise
version: 1
plan: 2
modules:
- use: Data::Dump
- use: Foo::Bar
imports: 'MyClass &my-subroutine'
methods: 'foo bar'
tests: |
ok my-subroutine, 'Perl 6 code here';
pass;
unit: module
example: |
sub my-subroutine is export {
True;
}
class MyClass is export {
}
```
You must have `Template::Mustache` and `YAMLish` to run `exercise-gen.pl6`.
Note (2017-05-22): [YAMLish](http://modules.perl6.org/dist/YAMLish)
is not yet feature complete, so some valid YAML files may not parse.
