NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Author::KENTNL::DistINI - Generate a dist.ini for @Author::KENTNL projects.

VERSION

version 2.012002

SYNOPSIS

  ; ~/.dzil/profiles/default/profile.ini
  [Author::KENTNL::DistINI]

  ; ~/.dzil/config.ini
  [%Rights]
  license_class = Perl_5
  copyright_holder = Kent Fredric <kentnl@cpan.org>

  [%PAUSE]
  user = KENTNL
  password = ; you don't think I'm stupid do you?

  ; ~/.netrc
  machine api.twitter.com
    login kentnlrelease
    password ; still not quite stupid enough

Then

  dzil new Some-Distname
  # start hacking.

This sets up [@Author::KENTNL] packages the way KENTNL likes it.

This involves initial configuration of the parameters that get passed through to AutoVersion::Relative to provide the relative frame of reference.

METHODS

gather_files

generates a dist.ini file.

NAMING RATIONALE

  Plugin::DistINI::KENTNL # Argh, too pollutive of the ::DistINI subspace
  Plugin::DistINI::Author::KENTNL
    # Argh, its going to result in lots of 'Author' subspaces ;(
  Plugin::Author::KENTNL::* # Low pollution, well clustered.

As it is, the following stuff is starting to get to me in terms of name-space pollution:

  Plugin::EOLTests  # Would prefer Plugin::Test::EOL
  Plugin::PodSyntaxTests # Would prefer Plugin::Test::Pod::Syntax

And I have half a mind to rename Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::KENTNL to be Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::KENTNL just to keep the top level cleaner, for stuff where bundles of plug-ins are useful for people other than ... well.. me. Call me a counter-egotist, if you will.

THEFT

This code is mostly stolen from the DistINI plug-in. Blame rjbs if its broken .
