NAME

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch - Fetch Alien::Build plugins

VERSION

version 2.80

SYNOPSIS

 use alienfile;
 share {
   start_url 'http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make';
   plugin 'Download';
 };

DESCRIPTION

Fetch plugins retrieve single resources from the internet. The difference between a Fetch plugin and a Download plugin is that Download plugin may fetch several resources from the internet (usually using a Fetch plugin), before finding the final archive. Normally you will not need to use Fetch plugins directly but should instead use the Alien::Build::Plugin::Download::Negotiate plugin, which will pick the best plugins for your given URL.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::CurlCommand

Fetch using the curl command.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::HTTPTiny

Fetch using HTTP::Tiny.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::LWP

Fetch using LWP::UserAgent.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::Local

Fetch from a local file. This is typically used to bundle packages with your Alien.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::LocalDir

Fetch from a local directory. This is typically used to bundle packages with your Alien.

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::NetFTP

Fetch using Net::FTP. Use of FTP should be discouraged as of this writing (August 2022).

Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::Wget

Fetch using wget.
