NAME

6       Dist::Zilla::App::Command::build - build your dist
7

VERSION

9       version 6.031

SYNOPSIS

12         dzil build [ --trial ] [ --tgz | --no-tgz ] [ --in /path/to/build/dir ]
13

DESCRIPTION

15       This command is a very thin layer over the Dist::Zilla "build" method,
16       which does all the things required to build your distribution.  By
17       default, it will also archive your distribution and leave you with a
18       complete, ready-to-release distribution tarball.
19
20       To go a bit further in depth, the "build" command will do two things:
21
22       •   Generate a directory containing your module, "Foo-0.100". This
23           directory is complete. You could create a gzipped tarball from this
24           directory and upload it directly to "PAUSE" if you so desired. You
25           could "cd" into this directory and test your module on Perl
26           installations where you don't have "Dist::Zilla", for example.
27
28           This is a default behavior of the "build" command. You can alter
29           where it puts the directory with "--in /path/to/build/dir".
30
31       •   Generate a gzipped tarball of your module, "Foo-0.100.tar.gz". This
32           file could be uploaded directly to "PAUSE" to make a release of
33           your module if you wanted. Or, you can test your module: "cpanm
34           --test-only Foo-0.100.tar.gz".  This is the same thing you would
35           get if you compressed the directory described above.
36
37           The gzipped tarball is generated by default, but if you don't want
38           it to be generated, you can pass the "--no-tgz" option. In that
39           case, it would only generate the directory described above.
40
41       Once you're done testing or publishing your build, you can clean up
42       everything with a "dzil clean".
43

PERL VERSION

45       This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates
46       from the Perl 5 Porters.  This means it should work on any version of
47       perl released in the last two to three years.  (That is, if the most
48       recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on
49       both v5.40 and v5.38.)
50
51       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made
52       that the minimum required version will not be increased.  The version
53       may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
54       will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.
55

EXAMPLE

57         $ dzil build
58         $ dzil build --no-tgz
59         $ dzil build --in /path/to/build/dir
60

OPTIONS

62   --trial
63       This will build a trial distribution.  Among other things, it will
64       generally mean that the built tarball's basename ends in -TRIAL.
65
66   --tgz | --no-tgz
67       Builds a .tar.gz in your project directory after building the
68       distribution.
69
70       --tgz behaviour is by default, use --no-tgz to disable building an
71       archive.
72
73   --in
74       Specifies the directory into which the distribution should be built.
75       If necessary, the directory will be created.  An archive will not be
76       created.
