NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::UploadToCPAN - upload the dist to CPAN

VERSION

       version 6.030

SYNOPSIS

       If loaded, this plugin will allow the release command to upload to the CPAN.

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin looks for configuration in your "dist.ini" or (more likely)
       "~/.dzil/config.ini":

         [%PAUSE]
         username = YOUR-PAUSE-ID
         password = YOUR-PAUSE-PASSWORD

       If this configuration does not exist, it can read the configuration from "~/.pause", in
       the same format that cpan-upload requires:

         user YOUR-PAUSE-ID
         password YOUR-PAUSE-PASSWORD

       If neither configuration exists, it will prompt you to enter your username and password
       during the BeforeRelease phase.  Entering a blank username or password will abort the
       release.

       You can't put your password in your dist.ini.  C'mon now!

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

   credentials_stash
       This attribute holds the name of a PAUSE stash that will contain the credentials to be
       used for the upload.  By default, UploadToCPAN will look for a %PAUSE stash.

   username
       This option supplies the user's PAUSE username.  It will be looked for in the user's PAUSE
       configuration; if not found, the user will be prompted.

   password
       This option supplies the user's PAUSE password.  It cannot be provided via dist.ini.  It
       will be looked for in the user's PAUSE configuration; if not found, the user will be
       prompted.

   pause_cfg_file
       This is the name of the file containing your pause credentials.  It defaults .pause.  If
       you give a relative path, it is taken to be relative to "pause_cfg_dir".

   pause_cfg_dir
       This is the directory for resolving a relative "pause_cfg_file".  it defaults to the glob
       expansion of ~.

   pause_cfg
       This is a hashref of defaults loaded from ~/.pause -- this attribute is subject to removal
       in future versions, as the config-loading behavior in CPAN::Uploader is improved.

   subdir
       If given, this specifies a subdirectory under the user's home directory to which to
       upload.  Using this option is not recommended.

   upload_uri
       If given, this specifies an alternate URI for the PAUSE upload form.  By default, the
       default supplied by CPAN::Uploader is used.  Using this option is not recommended in most
       cases.

   retries
       The number of retries to perform on upload failure (5xx response). The default is set to 3
       by this plugin. This option will be passed to CPAN::Uploader.

   retry_delay
       The number of seconds to wait between retries. The default is set to 5 seconds by this
       plugin. This option will be passed to CPAN::Uploader.
