NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertCopyright - Insert copyright statement into source code files

VERSION

version 0.005

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

[InsertCopyright]

In your source files (before __END__):

# COPYRIGHT

DESCRIPTION

This module replaces a special # COPYRIGHT comment in your Perl source files with a short notice appropriate to your declared copyright. The special comment must be placed before __END__. Only the first such comment will be replaced.

It is inspired by excellent Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Prepender but gives control of the copyright notice placement instead of always adding it at the start of a file.

I wrote this to let me put copyright statements at the end of my code to keep line numbers of code consistent between the generated distribution and the repository source. See Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion for another useful plugin that preserves line numbering.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Code in this module is based heavily on Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion by Caleb Cushing and Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Prepender by Jérôme Quelin. Thank you to both of them for their work and for releasing it as open source for reuse.
