multi trait_mod:<is>(Mu:U \type, :$export!)

See Exporting and Selective Importing Modules for more details.

In Routine§

See primary documentation in context for trait is export 

multi trait_mod:<is>(Routine $r, :$export!)

Marks a routine as exported to the rest of the world

module Foo {
    sub double($x) is export {
        2 * $x
    }
}

import Foo;         # makes sub double available
say double 21;      # 42

From inside another file you'd say use Foo; to load a module and import the exported functions.
