NAME

Pod::Weaver::Plugin::AppendPrepend - Merge append:FOO and prepend:FOO sections in POD

VERSION

This document describes version 0.021 of Pod::Weaver::Plugin::AppendPrepend (from Perl distribution Pod-Weaver-Plugin-AppendPrepend), released on 2024-02-06.

SYNOPSIS

In your weaver.ini:

[-AppendPrepend]
;exclude_modules = REGEX
;exclude_files = REGEX

In your POD:

=head1 prepend:FILES

foo

=head1 append:COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE

blah blah blah

In the final document, the text 'foo' will be prepended to the FILES section while 'blah blah blah' will be appended to the COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE section. The original prepend:* and append:* sections will be removed.

DESCRIPTION

This plugin searches for sections named prepend:TARGET and append:TARGET where TARGET is a section name. The text in prepend:* section will be prepended to the target section, while text in append:* section will be appended to the target section. Target section must exist.

This plugin is useful if you have a section generated by other modules but want to add some text to it.

CONFIGURATION

exclude_modules

exclude_files

ignore

Bool. Default to true. If set to true (the default), then when target headline does not exist, instead of dying, ignore append/prepend the headline.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
