NAME
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::VerifyPhases - Compare data and files at different phases of the distribution build process
VERSION
version 0.002
SYNOPSIS
In your dist.ini:
[VerifyPhases]DESCRIPTION
This plugin runs in multiple Dist::Zilla phases to check what actions have taken place so far. Its intent is to find any plugins that are performing actions outside the appropriate phase, so they can be fixed.
Running at the end of the -FileGatherer phase, it verifies that the distribution's metadata has not yet been calculated (as it usually depends on knowing the full manifest of files in the distribution).
Running at the end of the -EncodingProvider phase, it forces all encodings to be built (by calling their lazy builders), to use their SetOnce property to ensure that no subsequent phase attempts to alter a file encoding.
Running at the end of the -FilePruner phase, it verifies that no additional files have been added to the distribution, nor renamed, since the -FileGatherer phase.
Running at the end of the -FileMunger phase, it verifies that no additional files have been added to nor removed from the distribution, nor renamed, since the -FilePruner phase.
Running at the end of the -AfterBuild phase, the full state of all files are checked: files may not be added, removed, renamed nor had their content change.
Currently, FromCode files are not checked for content, as interesting side effects can occur if their content subs are run before all content is available (for example, other lazy builders can run too early, resulting in incomplete or missing data).
