NAME¶
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Prereqs - list simple prerequisites
VERSION¶
version 4.300020
SYNOPSIS¶
In your
dist.ini:
[Prereqs]
Foo::Bar = 1.002
MRO::Compat = 10
Sub::Exporter = 0
You can specify requirements for different phases and relationships with:
[Prereqs]
-phase = test
-relationship = recommends
Fitz::Fotz = 1.23
Text::SoundEx = 3
Remember that if you load two Prereqs plugins, each will needs its own name,
added like this:
[Prereqs / PluginName]
-phase = test
-relationship = recommends
Fitz::Fotz = 1.23
Text::SoundEx = 3
If the name is the CamelCase concatenation of a phase and relationship (or just
a relationship), it will set those parameters implicitly. If you use a custom
name, but it does not specify the relationship, and you didn't specify either
"-phase" or "-relationship", it throws the error "No
-phase or -relationship specified". This is to prevent a typo that makes
the name meaningless from slipping by unnoticed.
The example below is equivalent to the example above, except for the name of the
resulting plugin:
[Prereqs / TestRecommends]
Fitz::Fotz = 1.23
Text::SoundEx = 3
DESCRIPTION¶
This module adds "fixed" prerequisites to your distribution. These are
prereqs with a known, fixed minimum version that doens't change based on
platform or other conditions.
You can specify prerequisites for different phases and kinds of relationships.
In "RuntimeRequires", the phase is Runtime and the relationship is
Requires. These are described in more detail in the CPAN::Meta specification.
The phases are:
- •
- configure
- •
- build
- •
- test
- •
- runtime
- •
- develop
The relationship types are:
- •
- requires
- •
- recommends
- •
- suggests
- •
- conflicts
If the phase is omitted, it will default to
runtime; thus, specifying
"Prereqs / Recommends" in your dist.ini is equivalent to
RuntimeRecommends.
Not all of these phases are useful for all tools, especially tools that only
understand version 1.x CPAN::Meta files.
