NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ArchiveRelease - Move the release tarball to an archive directory

VERSION

       This document describes version 6.000 of Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ArchiveRelease, released
       December 17, 2017 as part of Dist-Zilla-Plugins-CJM version 6.000.

SYNOPSIS

       In your dist.ini:

         [ArchiveRelease]
         directory = releases      ; this is the default

DESCRIPTION

       If included, this plugin will cause the release command to mark the tarball read-only and
       move it to an archive directory.  You can combine this with another Releaser plugin (like
       UploadToCPAN), but it must be the last Releaser in your config (or the other Releasers
       won't be able to find the file being released).

       It also acts as a FilePruner in order to prevent Dist::Zilla from including the archived
       releases in future builds.

ATTRIBUTES

   directory
       The directory to which the tarball will be moved.  It may begin with "~" (or "~user") to
       mean your (or some other user's) home directory.  Defaults to releases.  If the directory
       doesn't exist, it will be created during the BeforeRelease phase.

       All files inside this directory will be pruned from the distribution.

INCOMPATIBILITIES

       None reported.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

       No bugs have been reported.
