NAME

Module::Release::Twitter - Twitter the module upload

DESCRIPTION

The release-csjewell script will automatically load this module if it thinks that you want to announce your module on Twitter.

SYNOPSIS

    use Module::Release '2.00_04';

    # ...
    $release->load_mixin( 'Module::Release::Twitter' );
    $release->twit_password;
    # ...
    last if $release->debug;

    # ...
    $release->twit_upload;

INTERFACE

twit_upload

Announces your upload to the Twitter account specified.

twit_upload

Retrieves the password for the Twitter account specified.

Module::Release

SOURCE AVAILABILITY

This source is on the Open Repository:

        L<http://svn.ali.as/cpan/trunk/Module-Release-CSJEWELL/>

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

.releaserc or releaserc file

These two entries are read from the releaserc file to configure what Twitter user announces uploading the file:

    twit_user username
    twit_pass password

These entries set the username and password to use on twitter.com.

The twit_user entry must be in the releaserc file, or "twit_upload" will return without announcing the uploading of the file.

Environment

The TWITTER_PASS environment variable can be used instead of the "twit_pass" variable, so that the releaserc file does not contain a password.

If neither the twit_pass releaserc entry nor the environment variable was set, then the twit_password routine will request the password from the console.
