Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaNoIndex - Stop CPAN from indexing stuff
version 1.101550
In your dist.ini:
[MetaNoIndex] directory = t/author directory = examples file = lib/Foo.pm package = My::Module namespace = My::Module
This plugin allows you to prevent PAUSE/CPAN from indexing files you don't want indexed. This is useful if you build test classes or example classes that are used for those purposes only, and are not part of the distribution. It does this by adding a no_index block to your META.yml file in your distribution.
no_index
Exclude folders and everything in them. Example: author.t. Aliases: folder, dir, directories.
author.t
folder
dir
directories
Exclude a specific file. Example: lib/Foo.pm. Alias: files.
lib/Foo.pm
files
Exclude by package name. Example: My::Package. Aliases: class, module, packages.
My::Package
class
module
packages
Exclude everything under a specific namespace. Example: My::Package. Alias: namespaces.
namespaces
NOTE: This will not exclude the package My::Package, only everything under it like My::Package::Foo.
My::Package::Foo
Returns a reference to a hash containing the distribution's no_index metadata.
