NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Authority - Add an $AUTHORITY to your packages

VERSION

  This document describes v1.001 of Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Authority - released December 07, 2010 as part of Dist-Zilla-Plugin-Authority.

DESCRIPTION

This plugin adds the $AUTHORITY marker to your packages. Also, it can add the authority information to the metadata, if requested.

        # In your dist.ini:
        [Authority]
        authority = cpan:APOCAL
        do_metadata = 1

The resulting hunk of code would look something like this:

        BEGIN {
          $Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Authority::AUTHORITY = 'cpan:APOCAL';
        }

This code will be added to any package declarations in your perl files.

ATTRIBUTES

authority

The authority you want to use. It should be something like cpan:APOCAL.

Defaults to the username set in the %PAUSE stash in the global config.ini or dist.ini ( Dist::Zilla v4 addition! )

do_metadata

A boolean value to control if the authority should be added to the metadata. ( META.yml or META.json )

Defaults to true.

The metadata will look like this:

        x_authority => 'cpan:APOCAL'
