NAME

Test2::Util::DistFiles - Gather a list of files in a distribution

VERSION

version v0.2.1

SYNOPSIS

use Test2::V0;
use Test2::Util::DistFiles qw( manifest_files is_perl_file );

my @perl = manifest_files( \&is_perl_file);

DESCRIPTION

This is a utility module that gathers lists files in a distribution, intended for author, or release tests for developers.

EXPORTS

manifest_files

my @files = manifest_files(); # use default filter

my @files = manifest_files( \%options, \&filter );

my @perl  = manifest_files( \&is_perl_file );

This returns a list of files from the MANIFEST, filtered by an optional function.

If there is no manifest, then it will use ExtUtils::Manifest to build a list of files that would be added to the manifest.

The following options are supported:

is_perl_file

This returns a list of Perl files in the distribution, excluding installation scaffolding like Module::Install files in inc.

Note that it will include files like Makefile.PL or Build.PL.

dir

Search for files in this directory.

use_default

Use the default filter to ignore local lib files, build files, version control files and temporary files.

This is true by default.
