DESCRIPTION

Run arbitrary commands at various Dist::Zilla phases.

PARAMETERS

run

Run the specific command at the specific Dist::Zilla phase given by the plugin, like [Run::Release] runs on release phase.

run_no_trial

Only run the given command if this isn't a trial build or release.

run_trial

Only run the given command if this is a trial build or release.

run_if_release

Only run the given command if this is a release.

run_no_release

Only run a given command if this isn't a release.

CONVERSIONS

The following conversions/format specifiers are defined for passing as arguments to the specified commands (though not all values are available at all phases).

• %a the archive of the release (available to all *Release phases)

• %d the directory in which the dist was built (or minted) (not in BeforeBuild)

• %n the dist name

• %p path separator ('/' on Unix, '\\' on Win32... useful for cross-platform dist.ini files)

• %v the dist version

• %x full path to the current perl interpreter (like $^X but from Config)

Additionally %s is retained for backward compatibility. Each occurrence is replaced by a different value (like the regular sprintf function). Individual plugins define their own values for the positional replacement of %s.
