💖 Dist::Z...Release(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Dist::Z...Release(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — this is the manual for Dist::Zilla::Role::BeforeRelease and honestly it's a whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

Dist::Zilla::Role::BeforeRelease — it's literally something that runs before release really begins. that's the whole job description, no notes. 💅

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 6.040 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the way this works: plugins that implement this role get their before_release method called before the release is actually done. that's it. that's the gig. you show up, you do your little thing, and then the release happens. main character energy, but make it pre-game 🎀

🧚 PERL VERSION 🧚

okay this part is important, ngl:

  • 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.
  • and like, so you know what that means in practice: if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38. fr fr.
⚠️ and now the cautionary part, bestie, listen up: even though 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 don't come for the maintainers about your perl from 2011, okay? it's giving "we warned you" 😭
