Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion - No line insertion and does Package version with our
version 0.21
in dist.ini
[OurPkgVersion]
in your modules
# VERSION
This module was created as an alternative to Dist::Zilla::Plugin::PkgVersion and uses some code from that module. This module is designed to use a the more readable format our $VERSION = $version; as well as not change then number of lines of code in your files, which will keep your repository more in sync with your CPAN release. It also allows you slightly more freedom in how you specify your version.
in dist.ini
...
version = 0.01;
[OurPkgVersion]
in lib/My/Module.pm
package My::Module;
# VERSION
...
output lib/My/Module.pm
package My::Module;
our $VERSION = '0.01'; # VERSION
...
please note that whitespace before the comment is significant so
package My::Module;
BEGIN {
# VERSION
}
...
becomes
package My::Module;
BEGIN {
our $VERSION = '0.01'; # VERSION
}
...
while
package My::Module;
BEGIN {
# VERSION
}
...
becomes
package My::Module;
BEGIN {
our $VERSION = '0.01'; # VERSION
}
...
you can also add additional comments to your comment
...
# VERSION: generated by DZP::OurPkgVersion
...
becomes
...
our $VERSION = '0.1.0'; # VERSION: generated by DZP::OurPkgVersion
...
you can also use perltidy's default static side comments (##)
...
## VERSION
...
becomes
...
our $VERSION = '0.1.0'; ## VERSION
...
Also note, the package line is not in any way significant, it will insert the our $VERSION line anywhere in the file before # VERSION as many times as you've written # VERSION regardless of whether or not inserting it there is a good idea. OurPkgVersion will not insert a version unless you have # VERSION so it is a bit more work.
If you make a trial release, the comment will be altered to say so:
# VERSION
becomes
our $VERSION = '0.01'; # TRIAL VERSION
Provides validations after object creation.
Override the default provided by Dist::Zilla::Role::FileMunger to limit the number of files to search to only be modules and executables.
tells which files to munge, see Dist::Zilla::Role::FileMunger.
Override the default FileFinder for finding files to check and update. The default value is :InstallModules and :PerlExecFiles (when available; otherwise :ExecFiles) -- see also Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ExecDir, to make sure the script files are properly marked as executables for the installer.
For version numbers that have an underscore in them, add this line immediately after the our version assignment:
$VERSION = eval $VERSION;
This is arguably the correct thing to do, but changes the line numbering of the generated Perl module or source, and thus optional.
Setting this property to "true" (1) will set the version of the module/distribution to properly use semantic versioning. It will also expect that you setup version with a v-string, without adding quotes. For example:
version = v0.0.1
Beware you can't setup both underscore_eval_version and semantic_version since both are mutually exclusive: if you try, your code is going to die.
For more details, check this blog for more details about using semantic version with Perl.
Set to true to ignore the main module in the distribution. This prevents a warning when using Dist::Zilla::Plugin::VersionFromMainModule to obtain the version number instead of the dist.ini file.
When enabled, this option causes any match of the # VERSION comment to first check for an existing our $VERSION = ...; on the same line, and if found, overwrite the value in the existing statement. (the comment still gets modified for trial releases)
Currently, the value must be a single Perl token such as a string or number.
When underscore_eval_version is used the generated code for dev versions may not technically be Perl::Critic compliant due to string eval, but is nevertheless pretty safe. This option will add the appropriate no critic directive to save you the hassle.
