NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides - Generating and Populating 'provides' in your META.yml

VERSION

       version 2.002004

SYNOPSIS

       This module is not intended to be used directly, but instead, one of the following sub-
       modules should be used in your projects dist.ini

       The most common usage should find

           [MetaProvides::Package]

       Sufficient for indexing traditional Perl5 modules.

       Advanced Usage:

           ; Traditional Perl5 Modules
           [MetaProvides::Package]
           inherit_version = 1  ; Default
           inherit_missing = 1  ; Default
           meta_noindex    = 1  ; Default

           ; If using MooseX::Declare style "class" keywords.
           ; Default configuration shown
           [MetaProvides::Class]
           inherit_version = 1    ; Default
           inherit_missing = 1    ; Default
           meta_noindex    = 1    ; Default

           ; Hand Constructed Provides in an external file
           [MetaProvides::FromFile]
           inherit_version = 1     ; Default
           inherit_missing = 1     ; Default

           file = some_file.ini    ; mandatory flag
           reader_name = Config::INI::Reader ;optional flag

       And then in some_file.ini

           [Imaginary::Package]
           file = lib/Imaginary/Package.pm ;mandatory flag
           version = 3.1415                ;optional flag, subject to rules in dist.ini

DESCRIPTION

       This Distribution Contains a small bundle of plugins for various ways of populating the
       "META.yml" that is built with your distribution.

       The initial reason for this is due to stuff that uses MooseX::Declare style class
       definitions not being parseable by many tools upstream, so this is here to cover this
       problem by defining it in the metadata.

COMPONENT SUMMARY

   "::Class"
       Scans Dist::Zilla's ".pm" files and tries to identify classes using Class::Discover.

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::Class

   "::Package"
       Scans Dist::Zilla's ".pm" files and tries to identify more traditional packages using a
       combination of Module::Extract::VERSION and Module::Extract::Namespaces.

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::Package

   "::FromFile"
       In the event both of the above don't work for your needs, pull in hand-crafted metadata
       from a specified file.

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::FromFile

OPTION SUMMARY

   "inherit_version"
       At the time this plugin runs to collect metadata from files, the mungers won't have run
       yet to inject custom versions into files in the various locations.

       If you want the versions reported in the "provides" list to be consistent with the ones
       actually in the files, you will need to use this option in its enabled state.

       IE: Generally, if you are using version munging, you WILL want this flag set to 1.

       "values"

       •   '0'

           Do not inherit version from "Dist::Zilla"

       •   '1' [default]

           Inherit version from Dist::Zilla

       "inherit_version" in Dist::Zilla::Role::MetaProvider::Provider

   "inherit_missing"
       If for whatever reason you want to actually use the versions found in the modules where
       present, and fall back to the value from Dist::Zilla.

       "inherit_version" will need to be turned off (0) for this to be effective.

       values

       •   '0'

           Do not inherit version from "Dist::Zilla" when one is missing.

       •   '1' [default]

           Inherit version from Dist::Zilla when one is missing.

       "inhert_missing" in Dist::Zilla::Role::MetaProvider::Provider

   "meta_noindex"
       This dictates how to behave when a discovered class is also present in the "no_index" META
       field.

       values

       •   '0' [default]

           "no_index" META field will be ignored

       •   '1'

           "no_index" META field will be recognised and things found in it will cause respective
           packages to not be provided in the metadata.

       "meta_noindex" in Dist::Zilla::Role::MetaProvider::Provider

   "file"
       ( Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::FromFile )

       This is a mandatory parameter that points to the file that contains manually ( or
       otherwise ) crafted metadata to be integrated into your final META.yml

       File Must exist.

   "reader_name"
       ( Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::FromFile )

       This parameter is by default Config::INI::Reader, but it can be in fact anything that
       meets the following criteria.

       •   Can be initialized an instance of

       •   has a read_file method on the instance

       •   read_file can take the parameter 'file'

       •   read_file can return a hashref matching the following structure

               { 'Package::Name' => {
                   'file' => '/path/to/file',
                   'version' => 0.1,
               }}
