NAME
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertCodeResult - Insert the result of Perl code into your POD
VERSION
This document describes version 0.056 of Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertCodeResult (from Perl distribution Dist-Zilla-Plugin-InsertCodeResult), released on 2023-12-11.
SYNOPSIS
In dist.ini:
[InsertCodeResult]
;make_verbatim=1
In your POD:
# CODE: require MyLib; MyLib::gen_stuff("some", "param");
or for multiline code:
# BEGIN_CODE
require MyLib;
MyLib::gen_stuff("some", "param");
...
# END_CODE
(you can prefix each line in multiline code with comment, to prevent this code from being analyzed by other analyzers e.g. scan_prereqs):
# BEGIN_CODE
#require MyLib;
#MyLib::gen_stuff("some", "param");
#...
# END_CODE
DESCRIPTION
This module finds # CODE: ...
or # BEGIN_CODE
and # END CODE
directives in your POD, evals the specified Perl code, and insert the result into your POD as a verbatim paragraph (unless you set make_verbatim
to 0, in which case output will be inserted as-is). If result is a simple scalar, it is printed as is. If it is undef or a reference, it will be dumped using Data::Dump. If eval fails, build will be aborted.
The directives must be at the first column of the line.

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
