Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OurPkgVersion - no line insertion and does Package version with our

version 0.004000

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
...
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
