oracular (3) Dist::Zilla::Plugin::TemplateModule.3pm.gz

NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Plugin::TemplateModule - a simple module-from-template plugin

VERSION

       version 6.032

DESCRIPTION

       This is a ModuleMaker used for creating new Perl modules files when minting a new dist with "dzil new".
       It uses Text::Template (via Dist::Zilla::Role::TextTemplate) to render a template into a Perl module.
       The template is given two variables for use in rendering: $name, the module name; and $dist, the
       Dist::Zilla object.  The module is always created as a file under ./lib.

       By default, the template looks something like this:

         use strict;
         use warnings;
         package {{ $name }};

         1;

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

   template
       The "template" parameter may be given to the plugin to provide a different filename, absolute or relative
       to the build/profile directory.

       If this parameter is not specified, this module will use the boilerplate module template included in this
       module.

MINTING CONFIGURATION

       This module is part of the standard configuration of the default Dist::Zilla Minting Profile, and all
       profiles that don't set a custom ':DefaultModuleMaker' so you don't need to normally do anything to
       configure it.

         dzil new Some::Module
         # creates ./Some-Module/*
         # creates ./Some-Module/lib/Some/Module.pm

       However, for those who wish to configure this ( or any subclasses ) this is presently required:

         [TemplateModule / :DefaultModuleMaker]
         ; template  = SomeFile.pm
