Dist::Zilla::Plugin::VersionFromScript - run command line script to provide version number
version 0.017
This plugin performs the Dist::Zilla::Role::VersionProvider role. It runs a user-provided shell script and uses the output as Dist::Zilla's version.
This module installs a couple of small perl scripts by way of example.
svnversion.pl gets the current Subversion version of your project and adjusts it to be a useful version number. To use it, add this to your dist.ini file:
[VersionFromScript] script = svnversion.pl
git-logs2version.pl counts the number of git log entries (commits) to find the version number. This versioning scheme can work in certain limited workflows. Add this to dist.ini:
[VersionFromScript] script = git-logs2version.pl
Both svnversion.pl and git-logs2version.pl can take arguments of:
--major number # add a major revision number --offset number # add offset to the minor revision
So for example, if you are at revision 50, calling
[VersionFromScript] script = svnversion.pl --major 3 --offset 22
produces 3.072 as the version number.
