NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Dpkg - Generate Dpkg files for your perl module

VERSION

version 0.05

SYNOPSIS

  #  [Dpkg]
  #  architecture = amd64
  #  default_template = package/debian/default

DESCRIPTION

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Dpkg generates Debian' controls files that you can use with debhelper to generate packages of your perl module.

There are a handful of tools that provide similar functionality. Most of them expect your perl module to have a standard installation mechanism. This module was born of a need for customization. It's projects used per-package perlbrews and all manner of custom bits.

TEMPLATES

This plugin uses Text::Template. The following variables will be passed to any templates that are processed, using attributes as values:

architecture
author (first in authors list)
name
package_binary_depends
package_depends
package_description
package_name
package_section
package_shell_name
version

SUBCLASSING

Each of the aforementioned template methods has an accompanying method that provides a default template. Most of these are undefined and therefore unused. This subclassing behavior allows you to create subclasses of Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Dpkg that provide default templates for many of the files.

The idea is to allow the easy creation of something like a Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Dpkg::Starman that provides boilerplate code for a Starman-based application.
