L<sanity|I frelling hate these things>, but several releases in, I found myself needing to keep my C<dist.ini> stuff in sync, which requires a single module to bind them to.
I'm a strong believer in structured order in the chaos that is the CPAN namespace. There's enough cruft in CPAN, with all of the forked modules, legacy stuff that should have been removed 10 years ago, and confusion over which modules are available vs. which ones actually work. (Which all stem from the same base problem, so I'm almost repeating myself...)
Like I said, I hate writing these personalized modules on CPAN. I even bantered around the idea of using L<https://github.com/SineSwiper/Dist-Zilla-PluginBundle-BeLike-You/blob/master/BeLike-You.pod|MetaCPAN's author JSON input> to store the plugin data. However, keeping the Author plugins separated from the real PluginBundles is a step in the right direction. See L<Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::KENTNL/NAMING-SCHEME|KENTNL's comments on the Author namespace> for more information.
This uses L<Dist::Zilla::Role::PluginBundle::Merged>, so all of the plugins' arguments are available, using Merged's rules. Special care should be made with arguments that might not be unique with other plugins. (Eventually, I'll throw these into C<config_rename>.)
If this is a problem, you might want to consider using L<Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Filter|@Filter>.
One exception is C<x_irc>, which is detected and passed to L<Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaResourcesFromGit|MetaResourcesFromGit> properly.
In building my ultimate C<dist.ini> file, I did a bunch of research on which modules to cram in here. As a result, this is a pretty large set of plugins, but that's exactly how I like my DZIL. Feel free to research the modules listed here, as there's a bunch of good modules that you might want to include in your own C<dist.ini> and/or Author bundle.
Also, here's my C<profile.ini>, if you're interested:
[TemplateModule/:DefaultModuleMaker] template = Module.pm [DistINI] append_file = plugins.ini [GatherDir::Template] root = skel [GenerateFile / Generate-.gitignore] filename = .gitignore is_template = 1 content = MANIFEST content = MANIFEST.bak content = Makefile content = Makefile.old content = Build content = Build.bat content = META.* content = MYMETA.* content = .build/ content = _build/ content = blib/ content = inc/ content = .lwpcookies content = .last_cover_stats content = nytprof.out content = pod2htm*.tmp content = pm_to_blib content = {{$dist->name}}-* content = {{$dist->name}}-*.tar.gz [Git::Init] commit_message = Initial commit [GitHub::Create]
Create a L<Pod::Weaver> author bundle.
