NAME
Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Apocalyptic - Let the apocalypse generate your POD!
VERSION
This document describes v0.004 of Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Apocalyptic - released October 25, 2014 as part of Pod-Weaver-PluginBundle-Apocalyptic.
DESCRIPTION
In your weaver.ini:
[@Apocalyptic]
Or alternatively, in your Dist::Zilla dist's dist.ini:
[PodWeaver]
config_plugin = @Apocalyptic
This plugin bundle formats your POD and adds some sections and sets some custom options. Naturally, in order for most of the plugins to work, you need to use this in conjunction with Dist::Zilla.
It is nearly equivalent to the following in your weaver.ini:
[@CorePrep] ; setup the pod stuff
[-SingleEncoding] ; add the =encoding command to your Pod
[Region / Pod::Coverage] ; move any Pod::Coverage markers to the top ( =for Pod::Coverage foo bar )
[-StopWords] ; gather our stopwords and add some extra ones via Pod::Weaver::Plugin::StopWords
[Name] ; automatically generate the NAME section
[Version] ; automatically generate the VERSION section
format = This document describes v%v of %m - released %{LLLL dd, yyyy}d as part of %r.
is_verbatim = 1
[Generic / SYNOPSIS] ; move the SYNOPSIS section here, if it exists
[Generic / DESCRIPTION] ; move the DESCRIPTION section here ( it is required to exist! )
required = 1
; get any POD marked with our special types and list them here
[Collect / ATTRIBUTES]
command = attr
[Collect / METHODS]
command = method
[Collect / FUNCTIONS]
command = func
[Collect / POE Events]
command = event
[Leftovers] ; any other POD you use
[SeeAlso] ; generate the SEE ALSO section via Pod::Weaver::Section::SeeAlso
[Support] ; generate the SUPPORT section via Pod::Weaver::Section::Support ( only present in main module )
irc = irc.perl.org, #perl-help, Apocalypse
irc = irc.freenode.net, #perl, Apocal
irc = irc.efnet.org, #perl, Ap0cal
email = APOCAL
[Authors] ; automatically generate the AUTHOR(S) section
[Contributors] ; automatically generate the CONTRIBUTOR(S) section via Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ContributorsFromGit
head = 2
[Generic / ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS] ; move the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS section here, if it exists
[Legal] ; automatically generate the COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE section
[WarrantyDisclaimer] ; automatically generate the DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY section via Pod::Weaver::Section::WarrantyDisclaimer
[-Transformer]
transformer = List ; mangle all :list pod into proper lists via Pod::Elemental::Transformer::List
[-EnsureUniqueSections] ; sanity check your sections to make sure they are unique via Pod::Weaver::Plugin::EnsureUniqueSections
If you need something to be configurable ( probably the Support section, ha! ) please let me know and I can add it in a future version.
Oh, the Contributors section is generated from the git history. In my case I had several email addresses that I used to commit in the past and I became a contributor to my own project! This was easily solved by fixing the git email addresses via the '.mailmap' file:
apoc@box:~/eclipse_ws/perl-pod-weaver-pluginbundle-apocalyptic$ cat .mailmap
Apocalypse <APOCAL@cpan.org> <apocalypse@users.noreply.github.com>
Apocalypse <APOCAL@cpan.org> <perl@0ne.us>
Future Plans
auto image in POD?
Saw that in http://search.cpan.org/~wonko/Smolder-1.51/lib/Smolder.pm
Maybe we can make a transformer to automatically do that? ( =image http://blah.com/foo.png )
Apocalypse: ya, right? cool and dangerous and prone to FAIL as URLs become invalid... :/ I'd hate to see craptons of broken images on s.c.o :( Yeah jhannah it would be best if you could include the image in the dist itself... but that's a problem for another day :) Apocalypse: it'd be trivial to include the .jpg in the .tgz... but what's the POD markup for that? and would s.c.o. do it correctly? =begin HTML is ... eep I think you could do it via sneaky means but it's prone to breakage i.e. include it in dist as My-Foo-Dist/misc/image.png and link to it via s.c.o's "browse dist" directory i.e. link to http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/WONKO/Smolder-1.51/misc/image.png I should try that sneaky tactic and see if it works =]
