NAME
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertDistFileLink - Insert links to distribution
shared files into POD as HTML snippets
VERSION
This document describes version 0.001 of
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertDistFileLink (from Perl distribution
Dist-Zilla-Plugin-InsertDistFileLink), released on 2023-11-09.
SYNOPSIS
In share, put some files e.g. foo.xlsx and share/img1.png.
In dist.ini:
[InsertDistFileLink]
;hosting=metacpan
;include_files=...
;exclude_files=...
;include_file_pattern=...
;exclude_file_pattern=...
In lib/Qux.pm or script/quux:
...
# FILE: share/foo.xlsx
# FILE: share/
...
After build, lib/Foo.pm will contain:
...
=begin html
foo.xlsx
=end html
=begin html
image/img1.png
=end html
DESCRIPTION
This plugin finds "# FILE" directive in your POD/code and replace it
with a POD containing HTML snippet to link to the file, using the
selected hosting provider's URL scheme.
Rationale: sometimes it's convenient to link to the distribution shared
files in HTML documentation. In POD there's currently no mechanism to do
this.
The "#FILE" directive must occur at the beginning of line and must be
followed by path to the image (relative to the distribution's root).
Shared files deployed inside a tarball (such as one created using
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ShareDir::Tarball) are not yet supported.
CONFIGURATION
hosting => str (default: metacpan)
Choose hosting provider. For available choicese, see
Dist::Zilla::Role::GetDistFileURL.
include_files => str+
exclude_files => str+
include_file_pattern => re

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR,
Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps
required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
