6 Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GatherDir - gather all the files in a directory
7
9 version 4.300002
10
12 This is a very, very simple FileGatherer plugin. It looks in the
13 directory named in the "root" attribute and adds all the files it finds
14 there. If the root begins with a tilde, the tilde is replaced with the
15 current user's home directory according to File::HomeDir.
16
17 Almost every dist will be built with one GatherDir plugin, since it's
18 the easiest way to get files from disk into your dist. Most users just
19 need:
20
21 [GatherDir]
22
23 ...and this will pick up all the files from the current directory into
24 the dist. You can use it multiple times, as you can any other plugin,
25 by providing a plugin name. For example, if you want to include
26 external specification files into a subdir of your dist, you might
27 write:
28
29 [GatherDir]
30 ; this plugin needs no config and gathers most of your files
31
32 [GatherDir / SpecFiles]
33 ; this plugin gets all the files in the root dir and adds them under ./spec
34 root = ~/projects/my-project/spec
35 prefix = spec
36
38 root
39 This is the directory in which to look for files. If not given, it
40 defaults to the dist root -- generally, the place where your dist.ini
41 or other configuration file is located.
42
43 prefix
44 This parameter can be set to gather all the files found under a common
45 directory. See the description above for an example.
46
47 include_dotfiles
48 By default, files will not be included if they begin with a dot. This
49 goes both for files and for directories relative to the "root".
50
51 In almost all cases, the default value (false) is correct.
52
53 follow_symlinks
54 By default, directories that are symlinks will not be followed. Note on
55 the other hand that in all followed directories, files which are
56 symlinks are always gathered.
57
58 exclude_filename
59 To exclude certain files from being gathered, use the
60 "exclude_filename" option. This may be used multiple times to specify
61 multiple files to exclude.
62
63 exclude_match
64 This is just like "exclude_filename" but provides a regular expression
65 pattern. Files matching the pattern are not gathered. This may be
66 used multiple times to specify multiple patterns to exclude.
