Dist::Z...Releaser(3)

💖 Dist::Zilla::Role::Releaser 💖

okay bestie, so this page is all about Dist::Zilla::Role::Releaser from the Dist::Zilla fam — it's a role, and it's literally the thing that makes a release of the dist happen. pull up a chair 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

Dist::Zilla::Role::Releaser — something that makes a release of the dist 💅

---

🌈 VERSION 🌈

version 6.040 ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea: plugins that implement this role get their release method called when releasing goes down. and what does it get handed? the distribution tarball that's about to be released. that's it, that's the whole vibe — the tarball gets passed straight to the plugin and the plugin does its little release thing with it. iconic behavior honestly 🎀

🧚 PERL VERSION 🧚

this module should work on any version of perl that's still getting updates from the Perl 5 Porters. which basically means: any perl released in the last two to three years. so like, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38. lowkey generous of it 💜

no cap though — even though it may work on older versions of perl, there's no guarantee that the minimum required version won't get bumped up. like, the version may be increased for any reason, and there's no promise that patches to lower the minimum required perl will be accepted. so don't come for me if your ancient perl stops vibing 😭
