NAME

Alien::Build::Plugin::Cleanse::BuildDir - Alien::Build plugin to cleanse the build dir after the build phase

VERSION

version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

   use alienfile
   share {
       #  other commands to download, unpack and build etc.,
       #  and then:
       plugin 'Cleanse::BuildDir';
   };

1;

DESCRIPTION

This plugin deletes the build directory after the alien module's build phase. This is useful if your alien has a large build size. It was developed because the Alien::gdal build footprint is enormous, and was filling up disk space on cpan testers.

You should use it conditionally in your alienfile, for example when you know the build dir contents are not needed later.

Has no effect if you are running a non-share install, or are using an out of source build (although these are currently untested).
