Dist::...hareDir(3pm)

🦋 NAME 🦋

Dist::Build::ShareDir — okay bestie, this is the sharedir support for Dist::Build. That's the whole vibe 💅

⭐ VERSION ⭐

version 0.028 — yes it's giving specific, we stan a numbered release ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Here's the whole thing, copy it exactly, no cap:

load_extension("Dist::Build::ShareDir");
dist_sharedir('share', 'Foo-Bar');
module_sharedir('foo', 'Foo::Bar');

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So this Dist::Build extension implements sharedirs. Fr fr that's its whole job 🫶

It does not take any arguments at loading time — like, none, zero, nothing, don't even try 😌 — and it exports two functions to the planner. Two. Iconic.

🌸 dist_sharedir($dir, $distribution) 🌸

This marks $dir as the source sharedir for the distribution $distribution.

And if $distribution isn't given? It defaults to the "distribution" of the planner. Slay, sensible defaults 💅

🧚 module_sharedir($dir, $module_name) 🧚

This marks $dir as the source sharedir for the module $module_name.

If $module_name isn't given, it defaults to the "main_module" of the planner. Look at that, matching energy ✨
