FUNCTIONS

add_release

Usage:

add_release(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]

Add a new release.

This function is not exported.

This function supports dry-run operation.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • changes* => array[str]

  • date* => date

  • file => str

    If not specified, will look for file called Changes/CHANGELOG/etc in current directory.

  • note => str

  • version* => str

Special arguments:

  • -dry_run => bool

    Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.

Return value: (any)
