NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::UploadToCPAN - upload the dist to CPAN

VERSION

version 5.001

SYNOPSIS

If loaded, this plugin will allow the release command to upload to the CPAN.

DESCRIPTION

This plugin looks for configuration in your dist.ini or (more likely) ~/.dzil/config.ini:

[%PAUSE]
username = YOUR-PAUSE-ID
password = YOUR-PAUSE-PASSWORD

If this configuration does not exist, it can read the configuration from ~/.pause, in the same format that cpan-upload requires:

user YOUR-PAUSE-ID
password YOUR-PAUSE-PASSWORD

If neither configuration exists, it will prompt you to enter your username and password during the BeforeRelease phase. Entering a blank username or password will abort the release.

ATTRIBUTES

username

This option supplies the user's PAUSE username. If not supplied, it will be looked for in the user's PAUSE configuration.

password

This option supplies the user's PAUSE password. If not supplied, it will be looked for in the user's PAUSE configuration.

pause_cfg

This is a hashref of defaults loaded from ~/.pause -- this attribute is subject to removal in future versions, as the config-loading behavior in CPAN::Uploader is improved.

subdir

If given, this specifies a subdirectory under the user's home directory to which to upload. Using this option is not recommended.

upload_uri

If given, this specifies an alternate URI for the PAUSE upload form. By default, the default supplied by CPAN::Uploader is used. Using this option is not recommended in most cases.
