SYNOPSIS

    Your dist.ini can be as short as this:

        [@Author::GSG]

    Which is equivalent to all of this:

    Some of which comes from Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Author::GSG.

DESCRIPTION

    This PluginBundle is here to make it easy for folks at GSG to release
    public distributions of modules as well as trying to make it easy for
    other folks to contribute.

    The share_dir for this module includes GSG standard files to include
    with open source modules. Things like a standard Makefile and a
    contributing guide. See the "update" Makefile target for details.

    The expected workflow for a module using this code is that after
    following the initial setup decribed below, you would manage changes
    via standard GitHub flow pull requests and issues. When ready for a
    release, you would first make update to update any included documents,
    commit those, and then run carton exec dzil release. You can set a
    specific release version with the V environment variable, as described
    in the Git::NextVersion Plugin documentation.

    The version regexps for both the Changelog and NextVersion should be
    open enough to pick up the older style tags we used as well as
    incrementing a more strict semver.

ATTRIBUTES / PARAMETERS

    github_remote / find_github_remote

      Looks in the git remote list for a push remote that matches
      github.com (case insensitively) and if we find one, we pass it to the
      Git and GitHub Plugins we use.

      If no remotes or multiple remotes are found, throws an exception
      indicating that you need to add the GitHub remote as described in
      "Cutting a release".

      Trying to find a remote, and failing if it isn't found, is only
      enabled if you set find_github_remote to a truthy value. However,
      find_github_remote defaults to truthy if the section name for the
      PluginBundle is the default, @Author::GSG.

      You can disable this, and fall back to each Plugin's default, by
      setting github_remote to an empty string.

    meta_provides

          [@Author::GSG]
          meta_provides = Class

      The MetaProvides subclass to use.

      Defaults to Package|Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides::Package.

      If you choose something other than the default, you will need to add
      an "on develop" dependency to your cpanfile.

    static_install_mode

      Passed to Dist::Zilla::Plugin::StaticInstall as mode.

    static_install_dry_run

      Passed to Dist::Zilla::Plugin::StaticInstall as dry_run.

    include_dotfiles

      Passed to "include_dotfiles" in Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git::GatherDir.

    exclude_filename

      Passed to "exclude_filename" in Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git::GatherDir.

      Automatically appends README.md and LICENSE.txt to the list.

    exclude_match

      Passed to "exclude_match" in Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git::GatherDir.

    test_compile_*

          [@Author::GSG]
          test_compile_skip    = ^My::NonCompiling::Module$
          test_compile_xt_mode = 1

      All options for Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Test::Compile should be
      supported with the test_compile_ prefix.

    dont_munge

          [@Author::GSG]
          dont_munge = (?^:one-off)
          dont_munge = (?^:docs/.*.txt)

      Passed to Dist::Zilla::Plugin::FileFinder::Filter as c<skip> for the
      MungableFiles plugin.

      This plugin gets passed to Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion and
      Dist::Zilla::Plugin::PodWeaver as finder to filter matches.

Setting up a new dist

 Create your dist.ini

    As above, you need the name and [@Author::GSG] bundle, plus any other
    changes you need.

 Add Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::GSG to your cpanfile

        on 'develop' => sub {
            requires 'Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::GSG';
        };

    Doing this in the develop phase will cause the default Makefile not to
    install it, which means folks contributing to a module won't need to
    install all of the Dist::Zilla dependencies just to submit some
    patches, but will be able to run most tests.

 Create a Makefile

    It is recommended to keep a copy of the Makefile from this PluginBundle
    in your app and update it as necessary, which the target in the
    included Makefile will do automatically.

    An initial Makefile you could use to copy one out of this PluginBundle
    might look like this:

        SHARE_DIR   := $(shell \
            carton exec perl -Ilib -MFile::ShareDir=dist_dir -e \
                'print eval { dist_dir("Dist-Zilla-PluginBundle-Author-GSG") } || "share"' )
    
        include $(SHARE_DIR)/Makefile.inc
    
        # Copy the SHARE_DIR Makefile over this one:
        # Making it .PHONY will force it to copy even if this one is newer.
        .PHONY: Makefile
        Makefile: $(SHARE_DIR)/Makefile.inc
            cp $< $@

    Using this example Makefile does require you run carton install after
    adding the on 'develop' dependency to your cpanfile as described above.

    If you want to override the Makefile included with this Plugin but
    still want to use some of the targets in it, you can rename it to
    something such as Makefile.inc and include it from your Makefile.

    Also see the section on Makefile.PL and XS modules.

    The Makefile that comes in this PluginBundle's share_dir has a many
    helpers to make development on a module supported by it easier.

    Some of the targets that are included in the Makefile are:

    test

      Makes your your local cpanfile.snapshot is up-to-date and if not,
      will run Carton before running prove -lfr t.

    testcoverage

      This target runs your tests under the Devel::Cover cover utility.
      However, Devel::Cover is not normally a dependency, so you will need
      to add it to the cpanfile temporarily for this target to work.

    Makefile

      Copies the Makefile.inc included in this PluginBundle's share_dir
      into your distribution.

      Actually the $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST)), so if you put the Makefile
      somewhere else, for example Makefile.inc or ci/Makefile, that will be
      the target.

      This should happen automatically through the magic of make.

    update

      Generates README.md and copies some additional files from this
      PluginBundle's share_dir into the repo so that the shared documents
      provided here will be kept up-to-date.

      README.md

	This is generated from the post Pod::Weaver documentation of the
	main module in the dist. Requires installing the develop cpanfile
	dependencies to work.

      $(CONTRIB)

	The files in this variable are copied from this PluginBundle's

	Currently includes CONTRIBUTING.md.

    $(CPANFILE_SNAPSHOT)

      Attempts to locate the correct cpanfile.snapshot and automatically
      runs carton install $(CARTON_INSTALL_FLAGS) if it is out of date.

      The CARTON_INSTALL_FLAGS are by default --without develop in order to
      avoid unnecessarily installing the heavy Dist::Zilla dependency
      chain.

 Makefile.PL

    There is special support for a Makefile.PL in the root of the
    repository. If using it, you will need to rename the Makefile included
    with this PluginBundle to something else, for example ci/Makefile or
    Makefile.dzil.

    This is normally used for modules that need a build phase before they
    will pass tests, such as modules that use XS.

    Generating the initial Makefile.PL can be done with:

        cp Makefile Makefile.dzil
        touch Makefile.PL dist.ini
        make Makefile.PL
        echo Makefile >> .gitignore
        git rm -f Makefile && git commit -am"Switch to Makefile.PL"

    Which should copy the Makefile.PL from the dzil workspace into your
    repostitory.

    Because this PluginBundle uses Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion,
    actually testing XS modules is a bit troublesome because they don't
    have a $VERSION available. The above command will generate the
    Makefile.PL with an embedded version of v0.0.1 which can be used in
    your tests to work around this. To support this you need to add our
    $VERSION = 'v0.0.1'; # VERSION to the .pm files that bootstrap the XS
    module. This default will be overwitten by the OurPkgVersion Plugin
    when Dist::Zilla builds the dist.

     package My::Module;
    
     # ABSTRACT: Does things for me
     our $VERSION = 'v0.0.1'; # VERSION

    For XS modules, you will also need to disable static_install_mode and
    exclude the Makefile.PL from the dist, as the MakeMaker Plugin will
    want to generate one with the correct version.

        [@Author::GSG]
        static_install_mode = off
        exclude_filename = Makefile.PL

 Cutting a release

        carton exec -- dzil release

    This should calculate the new version number, build a new release
    tarball, add a release tag, create the release on GitHub and upload the
    tarball to it.

    You can set the V environment variable to force a specific version, as
    described by Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git::NextVersion.

        V=2.0.0 carton exec -- dzil release

    Make sure your local checkout has what you want to release

      Completing a dzil release will commit any changes, tag the release
      version to the currently checked out commit, and push to the remote.

    Your git remote must be a format GitHub::UploadRelease understands

      Either git@github.com:GrantsStreetGroup/$repo.git,
      ssh://git@github.com/GrantsStreetGroup/$repo.git, or
      https://github.com/GrantsStreetGroup/$repo.git.

      As shown in the "Fetch URL" from git remote -n $remote,

    Set github.user and github.token

      You can get a GitHub token by following GitHub's instructions
      <https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line>.

          git config --global github.user  github_login_name
          git config --global github.token token_from_instructions_above
