NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GatherFile - gather individual file(s)

VERSION

       version 6.030

SYNOPSIS

         [GatherFile]
         filename = examples/file.txt

DESCRIPTION

       This is a very, very simple FileGatherer plugin.  It adds all the files referenced by the
       "filename" option that are found in the directory named in the "root" attribute.  If the
       root begins with a tilde, the tilde is passed through "glob()" first.

       Since normally every distribution will use a GatherDir plugin, you would only need to use
       the GatherFile plugin if the file was already being excluded (e.g.  from an
       "exclude_match" configuration).

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

   root
       This is the directory in which to look for files.  If not given, it defaults to the dist
       root -- generally, the place where your dist.ini or other configuration file is located.

   prefix
       This parameter can be set to place the gathered files under a particular directory.  See
       the description above for an example.

   filename
       The name of the file to gather, relative to the "root".  Can be used more than once.
