Module:...thubMeta(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Module:...thubMeta(3) page from the user-contributed Perl docs 💖 this one is all about Module::Install::GithubMeta — a Module::Install extension that includes GitHub meta information in META.yml. That's the name and the one-liner, and it ate ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

Drop this into Makefile.PL:

# In Makefile.PL

use inc::Module::Install;
githubmeta;

Then the repository and homepage meta in META.yml will be set accordingly. slay 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Module::Install::GithubMeta is a Module::Install extension for including GitHub (http://github.com) meta information in META.yml.

It automatically checks whether the distribution directory is under git version control and whether the origin is a GitHub repository. If it is, it sets the repository and homepage meta in META.yml to the appropriate URLs for GitHub. no cap 🔥

💀 COMMANDS 💀

This plugin adds this Module::Install command:

🦋 githubmeta 🦋

• user-side — does nothing. literally nothing 🙈
• author-side — auto-detects whether the directory is under git version control and whether the origin is a GitHub repository. It sets repository to the public clone URL and homepage to the http GitHub link for the repository.
• optional remote — you can provide the remote to query; if you don't specify one, it defaults to origin.
• homepage override — you can override the homepage setting by using the Module::Install homepage command prior to calling this command.

Example time, bestie:

use inc::Module::Install;
homepage 'http://mymoduleshomepage.com/';
githubmeta;
