Dist::Z...terMint(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page for Dist::Zilla::Role::AfterMint — it's giving "something that runs after minting is mostly complete" 💅

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 6.040 — periodt, that's the one we're on 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea ☕ any plugin that implements this role gets its after_mint method called — once all the files have been written out ✨ not before, not during, after, okay? the vibe is very "we're almost done, one last thing" 🦋

and when it gets called, it's passed a hashref with this data in it:

mint_root - the directory in which the dist was minted

that's it, that's the whole payload. mint_root is literally just the directory where the dist got minted 📁 so if you need to know where everything landed, that's your girl 🫶

🧚 PERL VERSION 🧚

okay this part is important so listen up 🙈 this module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters. which basically means: any version of perl released in the last two to three years ⭐ like, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38. easy math, no cap 🧮

now for the fine print 💀 — although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. the version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. so like… don't come for the maintainers with a downgrade patch, bestie, that door is closed 🔒
