NAME
Dist::Zilla::MintingProfile::Starter - A minimal Dist::Zilla minting profile
SYNOPSIS
# setup only needs to be run once to set up your dzil config
$ dzil setup
$ dzil new -P Starter My::New::DistDESCRIPTION
This minting profile for dzil new creates a minimal new distribution consisting of a basic dist.ini using the [@Starter] plugin bundle, and a skeleton for the main module and its documentation. The author, license, and copyright will be populated in the dist.ini and documentation from the current dzil config.ini, which can be initialized using dzil setup. The version is initialized statically as 0.001.
The Dist::Zilla::Starter guide explains how the Dist::Zilla plugin system works, and how it is specifically used for the minting process.
See Dist::Zilla::MintingProfile::Starter::Git for a version of this profile designed for the [@Starter::Git] bundle variant.
CUSTOMIZING
It's easy to create your own local version of this (or any other) minting profile which you can customize as you choose. First create a new directory in profiles in your dzil configuration folder:
$ mkdir -p ~/.dzil/profiles/myminterThen, copy the contents from the profile you want (such as the profiles/default directory of this distribution). Modify the copied files to your liking, and then you can use it to mint a distribution.
$ dzil new -p myminter My::New::DistYou can also specify a default provider (-P option) or profile (-p option) in your dzil config (~/.dzil/config.ini).
; config.ini
[%Mint]
profile = myminter
; or
[%Mint]
provider = Starter
$ dzil new My::New::Dist # now defaults to the specified provider and/or profileIf no provider or profile is configured or specified, dzil new will use the default local profile, or the default [@Basic] profile shipped with Dist::Zilla.
