NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Role::File - something that can act like a file

VERSION

       version 6.030

DESCRIPTION

       This role describes a file that may be written into the shipped distribution.

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

   name
       This is the name of the file to be written out.

   added_by
       This is a list of strings describing when and why the file was added to the distribution
       and when it was updated (its content, filename, or other attributes).  It will generally
       be updated by a plugin implementing the FileMunger role.  Its accessor will return the
       list of strings, concatenated with '; '.

   mode
       This is the mode with which the file should be written out.  It's an integer with the
       usual "chmod" semantics.  It defaults to 0644.

METHODS

   is_bytes
       Returns true if the "encoding" is bytes.  When true, accessing "content" will be an error.
