💖 Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckBin — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckBin, a lil Perl thing from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section (that's the (3pm) vibe, iykyk). It's got one job and it does it gorgeously: making sure your distro actually has the command it needs before anything goes sideways. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckBin — bestie, this plugin requires that our distribution has a particular command available. no command, no vibes. periodt. 💅

🦋 VERSION 🦋

version 0.008

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

pop this into your dist.ini and watch it slay:

[CheckBin]
command = ls

that's it. that's the whole thing. iconic. 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea, fr fr: Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckBin is a Dist::Zilla plugin that goes into your distribution's Makefile.PL or Build.PL and modifies it so it contains a Devel::CheckBin call. that call asserts that a particular command is available. 🫶

and if that command is not available? the program exits with a status of zero. which sounds fine but lowkey it's the whole point — on a CPAN Testers machine that exit-zero situation results in an NA result. so it's giving "we're not even gonna pretend to run this" energy. 💀

💜 CONFIGURATION OPTIONS 💜

🌈 command

Identifies the name of the command that is searched for. And here's the cute part: it can be used more than once. stack 'em up, bestie. 🔥
