Dist::Zilla::Plugin::FileFinder::ByName(3)

NAME
Dist::Zilla::Plugin::FileFinder::ByName - FileFinder matching on pathnames

VERSION
version 5.006

SYNOPSIS
In your dist.ini:

  [FileFinder::ByName / MyFiles]
  dir   = bin     ; look in the bin/ directory
  dir   = lib     ; and the lib/ directory
  file  = *.pl    ; for .pl files
  match = \.pm$   ; and for .pm files
  skip  = ignore  ; that don't have "ignore" in the path

DESCRIPTION
FileFinder::ByName is a FileFinder that selects files by matching the criteria you specify against the pathname.

There are three types of criteria you can use. "dir" limits the search to a particular directory. "match" is a regular expression that must match the pathname. "skip" is a regular expression that must not match the pathname.

Each key can be specified multiple times. Multiple occurrences of the same key are ORed together. Different keys are ANDed together. That means that to be selected, a file must be located in one of the "dir"s, must match one of the "match" regexs, and must not match any of the "skip" regexs.

Note that "file" and "match" are considered to be the same key. They're just different ways to write a regex that the pathname must match.

Omitting a particular key means that criterion will not apply to the search. Omitting all keys will select every file in your dist.

Note: If you need to OR different types of criteria, then use more than one instance of FileFinder::ByName. A FileFinderUser should allow you to specify more than one FileFinder to use.

ATTRIBUTES

  dir
The file must be located in one of the specified directories (relative to the root directory of the dist).

  file
The filename must match one of the specified patterns (which are converted to regexs using Text::Glob and combined with any "match" rules).

  match
The pathname must match one of these regular expressions.

  skip
The pathname must not match any of these regular expressions.
