NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertCodeOutput - Insert the output of Perl code into your POD

VERSION

This document describes version 0.044 of Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertCodeOutput (from Perl distribution Dist-Zilla-Plugin-InsertCodeOutput), released on 2021-05-21.

SYNOPSIS

In dist.ini:

[InsertCodeOutput]
;make_verbatim=1

In your POD:

# CODE: require MyLib; MyLib::gen_stuff("some", "param");

or for multiline code:

# BEGIN_CODE
require MyLib;
MyLib::gen_stuff("some", "param");
...
# END_CODE

DESCRIPTION

This module finds # CODE: ... or # BEGIN_CODE and # END CODE directives in your POD, evals the specified Perl code while capturing the output using Capture::Tiny's capture_merged (which means STDOUT and STDERR output are both captured), and insert the output to your POD as verbatim paragraph (indented with a whitespace), unless when make_verbatim is set to 0 then it is inserted as-is. If eval fails ($@ is true), build will be aborted.

The directives must be at the first column of the line.
