Hello,
but your approach means you have to state the version in the META6.json
AND in the Module.pm6 file again. This would be the similar to having
$VERSION in perl5. Shouldnt there be a simpler way?

Hi Martin,
This works for me:
File mytest.pm6
use v6;
unit module mytest:ver<0.0.1>;
sub myver is export
{
mytest.^ver;
}
File mytest.p6
#!/usr/bin/env perl6
use lib '.';
use mytest;
say myver;
Console output:
$./mytest.p6
v0.0.1
I this what you meant?

Hello everyone,
I wanted to repeat the question that I asked today on #perl6.
I am looking for a way to retrieve the version of a Perl6-Module
from within the module itself.
<ufobat> there is often a our $VERSION in perl5 modules. is this
still idiomatic/a good way to go in perl6
<timotimo> i think the version is meant to be part of the meta
info and such?
<ufobat> but that means the module itself does not know about its
version, just e.g. zef does?
<timotimo> i'm convinced there ought to be a way to get the full
meta info from whatever installation your script was grabbed from
<timotimo> but i don't know what or how
