NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::EnsureLatestPerl - Ensure the author is releasing using the latest Perl

VERSION

version 0.008

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

[EnsureLatestPerl]

DESCRIPTION

This is a Dist::Zilla plugin that aborts the dzil release process unless the latest perl is being used for the release. "Latest" here is calculated as the latest point release in the latest stable or development Perl lines -- for example, 5.24.1 (latest in the 5.24 series) or 5.25.12 (latest in the 5.25 series).

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

DZIL_ANY_PERL

When this environment variable is true, the check is skipped. Therefore, it is safe to keep this plugin enabled in your plugin bundle, and you can disable it temporarily as needed for a particular release without changing any local files.
