NAME Dist::Zilla::Plugin::InsertExample - Insert example into your POD from a file VERSION version 0.05 SYNOPSIS In your dist.ini: [InsertExample] In your POD: =head1 EXAMPLE Here is an exaple that writes hello world to the terminal: # EXAMPLE: example/hello.pl File in your dist named example/hello.pl #!/usr/bin/perl say 'hello world'; After dzil build your POD becomes: =head1 EXAMPLE Here is an example that writes hello world to the terminal: #!/usr/bin/perl say 'hello world'; and example/hello.pl is there too (unless you prune it with another plugin). DESCRIPTION This plugin takes examples included in your distribution and inserts them in your POD where you have an EXAMPLE directive. This allows you to keep a version in the distribution which can be run by you and your users, as well as making it available in your POD documentation, without the need for updating example scripts in multiple places. When the example is inserted into your pod a space will be appended at the start of each line so that it is printed in a fixed width font. This plugin will first look for examples in the currently building distribution, including generated and munged files. If no matching filename is found, it will look in the distribution source root. OPTIONS remove_boiler Remove the #!/usr/bin/perl, use strict; or use warnings; from the beginning of your example before inserting them into the POD.
