      mymeta-cpanfile

      # Skip configures phase and suggests type
      mymeta-cpanfile --no-configure --no-suggests

      # Include empty blcok for phases without prereqs
      mymeta-cpanfile --include-empty

Options:
    --configure, --build, --test, --runtime, --develop
        Specify the phase to include/exclude. Defaults to include all
        phases, but you can exclude some phases by specifying the options
        with "--no-" prefix, like "--no-configure".

    --requires, --recommends, --suggests, --conflicts
        Specify the type to include/exclude. Defaults to include all types,

    --include-empty
        By default, phases without any prereqs are not dumped, By giving
        this option, cpanfile will have an empty block such as:

          on test => sub {
