Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaNoIndex(3pm)

Usage

In your dist.ini:

  directory = examples
  file = lib/Foo.pm
  package = My::Module
  namespace = My::Module

Version

version 6.032

Overview

This plugin allows you to prevent PAUSE/CPAN from indexing files you don't want indexed. This is useful if you build test classes or example classes that are used for those purposes only, and are not part of the distribution. It does this by adding a "no_index" block to your META.json (or META.yml) file in your distribution.

Perl version

This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters. This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to three years. (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

Although 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.
