NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::Package - Extract namespaces/version from traditional packages for provides

VERSION

version 1.12044908

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

    [MetaProvides::Package]
    inherit_version = 0    ; optional
    inherit_missing = 0    ; optional
    meta_noindex    = 1    ; optional

ROLES

Dist::Zilla::Role::MetaProvider::Provider

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM Dist::Zilla::Role::MetaProvider::Provider

inherit_version

How do you want existing versions ( Versions hardcoded into files before running this plug-in )to be processed?

  • DEFAULT: inherit_version = 1

    Ignore anything you find in a file, and just probe DZIL->version() for a value. This is a sane default and most will want this.

  • inherit_version = 0

    Use this option if you actually want to use hard-coded values in your files and use the versions parsed out of them.

inherit_missing

In the event you are using the aforementioned "inherit_version" = 0, this determines how to behave when encountering a module with no version defined.

  • DEFAULT: inherit_missing = 1

    When a module has no version, probe DZIL->version() for an answer. This is what you want if you want to have some files with fixed versions, and others to just automatically be maintained by Dist::Zilla.

  • inherit_missing = 0

    When a module has no version, emit a versionless record in the final metadata.

meta_noindex

This is a utility for people who are also using MetaNoIndex, so that its settings can be used to eliminate items from the 'provides' list.

  • meta_noindex = 0

    By default, do nothing unusual.

  • DEFAULT: meta_noindex = 1

    When a module meets the criteria provided to MetaNoIndex, eliminate it from the metadata shipped to Dist::Zilla
