# [NAME](#NAME)

autodie::skip - Skip a package when throwing autodie exceptions

# [SYNPOSIS](#SYNPOSIS)

```
    use parent qw(autodie::skip);
```

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

This dummy class exists to signal that the class inheriting it should be skipped when reporting exceptions from autodie. This is useful for utility classes like Path::Tiny that wish to report the location of where they were called on failure.

If your class has a better way of doing roles, then you should not load this class and instead simply say that your class *DOES* "autodie::skip" instead.
