NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::AutoPrereqs - automatically extract prereqs from your modules

VERSION

       version 6.030

SYNOPSIS

       In your dist.ini:

         [AutoPrereqs]
         skip = ^Foo|Bar$
         skip = ^Other::Dist

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin will extract loosely your distribution prerequisites from your files using
       Perl::PrereqScanner.

       If some prereqs are not found, you can still add them manually with the Prereqs plugin.

       This plugin will skip the modules shipped within your dist.

       Note, if you have any non-Perl files in your "t/" directory or other directories being
       scanned, be sure to mark those files' encoding as "bytes" with the Encoding plugin so they
       won't be scanned:

           [Encoding]
           encoding = bytes
           match    = ^t/data/

PERL VERSION

       This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5
       Porters.  This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to
       three years.  (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module
       should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum
       required version will not be increased.  The version may be increased for any reason, and
       there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

ATTRIBUTES

   finder
       This is the name of a FileFinder whose files will be scanned to determine runtime
       prerequisites.  It may be specified multiple times.  The default value is
       ":InstallModules" and ":ExecFiles".

   test_finder
       Just like "finder", but for test-phase prerequisites.  The default value is ":TestFiles".

   configure_finder
       Just like "finder", but for configure-phase prerequisites.  There is no default value;
       AutoPrereqs will not determine configure-phase prerequisites unless you set
       configure_finder.

   develop_finder
       Just like "finder", but for develop-phase prerequisites.  The default value is
       ":ExtraTestFiles".

   skips
       This is an arrayref of regular expressions, derived from all the 'skip' lines in the
       configuration.  Any module names matching any of these regexes will not be registered as
       prerequisites.

   relationship
       The relationship used for the registered prerequisites. The default value is 'requires';
       other options are 'recommends' and 'suggests'.

   extra_scanners
       This is an arrayref of scanner names (as expected by Perl::PrereqScanner).  It will be
       passed as the "extra_scanners" parameter to Perl::PrereqScanner.

   scanners
       This is an arrayref of scanner names (as expected by Perl::PrereqScanner).  If present, it
       will be passed as the "scanners" parameter to Perl::PrereqScanner, which means that it
       will replace the default list of scanners.
