NAME

Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::MITHALDU - Dist::Zilla configuration the way MITHALDU does it

VERSION

version 1.190321

SYNOPSIS

# in dist.ini
[@MITHALDU]

DESCRIPTION

This module is forked off of Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::DAGOLDEN and modified to suit my own tastes. He did most of the work.

This is a Dist::Zilla PluginBundle. It is roughly equivalent to the following dist.ini:

  ; version provider
  [AutoVersion]  ; build a version from the date
  major = 1

  ; choose files to include
  [GatherDir]         ; everything under top dir
  exclude_filename = README.pod   ; skip this generated file
  exclude_filename = META.json    ; skip this generated file
  exclude_filename = .gitignore   ; skip this generated file
  exclude_filename = README.PATCHING ; skip this generated file
  exclude_filename = perlcritic.rc   ; skip this generated file

  [PruneCruft]        ; default stuff to skip
  except = .gitignore
  except = README.PATCHING
  except = perlcritic.rc
  [ManifestSkip]      ; if -f MANIFEST.SKIP, skip those, too

  ; file modifications
  [OurPkgVersion]     ; add $VERSION = ... to all files
  [InsertCopyright    ; add copyright at "# COPYRIGHT"
  [PodWeaver]         ; generate Pod
  config_plugin = @MITHALDU ; my own plugin allows Pod::WikiDoc

  ; generated files
  [License]           ; boilerplate license
  [ReadmeAnyFromPod]     ; from Pod (runs after PodWeaver)
  [ReadmeAnyFromPod / ReadmePodInRoot]  ; create README.pod in repo directory
  type = pod
  filename = README.pod
  location = root
  [GenerateFile]
  filename    = .gitignore
  is_template = 1
  content = /.build
  content = /{{ $dist->name }}-*
  ; and more, see Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::MITHALDU::Templates
  [GenerateFile]
  filename    = README.PATCHING
  is_template = 1
  content = README.PATCHING
  ; and more, see Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::MITHALDU::Templates
  [GenerateFile]
  filename    = perlcritic.rc
  is_template = 1
  content = README.PATCHING
  ; and more, see Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::MITHALDU::Templates

  ; t tests
  [Test::Compile]     ; make sure .pm files all compile
  fake_home = 1       ; fakes $ENV{HOME} just in case

  ; xt tests
  [Test::Perl::Critic]; xt/author/critic.t
  [MetaTests]         ; xt/release/meta-yaml.t
  [PodSyntaxTests]    ; xt/release/pod-syntax.t
  [PodCoverageTests]  ; xt/release/pod-coverage.t
  [Test::Portability] ; xt/release/portability.t (of file name)
  [Test::Version]     ; xt/release/test-version.t

  ; metadata
  [AutoPrereqs]       ; find prereqs from code
  [MinimumPerl]       ; determine minimum perl version
  [GithubMeta]

  [MetaNoIndex]       ; sets 'no_index' in META
  directory = t
  directory = xt
  directory = examples
  directory = corpus
  package = DB        ; just in case

  [Bugtracker]        ; defaults to RT

  [MetaProvides::Package] ; add 'provides' to META files
  meta_noindex = 1        ; respect prior no_index directives

  [MetaYAML]          ; generate META.yml (v1.4)
  [MetaJSON]          ; generate META.json (v2)

  ; build system
  [ExecDir]           ; include 'bin/*' as executables
  [ShareDir]          ; include 'share/' for File::ShareDir
  [MakeMaker]         ; create Makefile.PL

  ; manifest (after all generated files)
  [Manifest]          ; create MANIFEST

  ; copy META.json back to repo dis
  [CopyFilesFromBuild]
  copy = META.json
  move = .gitignore
  copy = README.PATCHING
  copy = perlcritic.rc

  ; before release
  [Git::Check]        ; ensure all files checked in
  allow_dirty = dist.ini
  allow_dirty = Changes
  allow_dirty = README.pod
  allow_dirty = META.json

  [CheckPrereqsIndexed]    ; ensure prereqs are on CPAN
  [CheckChangesHasContent] ; ensure Changes has been updated
  [CheckExtraTests]   ; ensure xt/ tests pass
  [TestRelease]       ; ensure t/ tests pass
  [ConfirmRelease]    ; prompt before uploading

  ; releaser
  [UploadToCPAN]      ; uploads to CPAN

  ; after release
  [NextRelease]

  [Git::Commit] ; commit Changes (as released)
  allow_dirty = dist.ini
  allow_dirty = Changes
  allow_dirty = README.pod
  allow_dirty = META.json

  [Git::Tag]          ; tag repo with custom tag
  tag_format = release-%v

  [Git::Push]         ; push repo to remote
  push_to = origin

USAGE

To use this PluginBundle, just add it to your dist.ini. You can provide the following options:

  • is_task -- this indicates whether TaskWeaver or PodWeaver should be used. Default is 0.

  • auto_prereq -- this indicates whether AutoPrereq should be used or not. Default is 1.

  • tag_format -- given to Git::Tag. Default is 'release-%v' to be more robust than just the version number when parsing versions

  • major_version -- overrides the major version set by AutoVersion

  • fake_release -- swaps FakeRelease for UploadToCPAN. Mostly useful for testing a dist.ini without risking a real release.

  • weaver_config -- specifies a Pod::Weaver bundle. Defaults to @MITHALDU.

  • no_critic -- omit Test::Perl::Critic tests

  • gitignore -- adds entries to be added to .gitignore (can be repeated)

  • exclude_match -- regexes to exclude files from the dist (can be repeated)

  • prune_except -- regexes to except files from being pruned as cruft (can be repeated)
