NAME¶
Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser - something that uses FileFinder plugins
VERSION¶
version 6.032
DESCRIPTION¶
This role enables you to search for files in the dist. This makes it easy to find specific files and have the code factored out to common methods.
Here's an example of a finder: ( taken from AutoPrereqs )
with 'Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser' => {
default_finders => [ ':InstallModules', ':ExecFiles' ],
};
Then you use it in your code like this:
foreach my $file ( @{ $self->found_files }) {
# $file is an object! Look at L<Dist::Zilla::Role::File>
}
PERL VERSION¶
This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters. This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to three years. (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)
Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.
ATTRIBUTES¶
finder_arg_names¶
Define the name of the attribute which will hold this finder. Be sure to specify different names if you have multiple finders!
This is an ArrayRef.
Default: [ qw( finder ) ]
default_finders¶
This attribute is an arrayref of plugin names for the default plugins the consuming plugin will use as finders.
Example: "[ qw( :InstallModules :ExecFiles ) ]"
The default finders are:
- :InstallModules
- Searches your lib/ directory for pm/pod files
- :IncModules
- Searches your inc/ directory for pm files
- :MainModule
- Finds the "main_module" of your dist
- :TestFiles
- Searches your t/ directory and lists the files in it.
- :ExtraTestFiles
- Searches your xt/ directory and lists the files in it.
- :ExecFiles
- Searches your distribution for executable files. Hint: Use the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ExecDir plugin to mark those files as executables.
- :PerlExecFiles
- A subset of ":ExecFiles" limited just to perl scripts (those ending with .pl, or with a recognizable perl shebang).
- :ShareFiles
- Searches your ShareDir directory and lists the files in it. Hint: Use the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ShareDir plugin to set up the sharedir.
- :AllFiles
- Returns all files in the distribution.
- :NoFiles
- Returns nothing.
method¶
This will be the name of the subroutine installed in your package for this finder. Be sure to specify different names if you have multiple finders!
Default: found_files
