Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaNoIndex(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaNoIndex(3)

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaNoIndex - Stop CPAN from indexing stuff

version 6.024

In your dist.ini: 

  [MetaNoIndex]

  directory = t/author
  directory = examples

  file = lib/Foo.pm

  package = My::Module

  namespace = My::Module

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.

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.

Exclude folders and everything in them, for example: author.t

Aliases: "folder", "dir", "directory"

Exclude a specific file, for example: lib/Foo.pm

Alias: "file"

Exclude by package name, for example: "My::Package"

Aliases: "class", "module", "package"

Exclude everything under a specific namespace, for example: "My::Package"

Alias: "namespace"

NOTE: This will not exclude the package "My::Package", only everything under it like "My::Package::Foo".

Returns a reference to a hash containing the distribution's no_index metadata.

Dist::Zilla roles: MetaProvider.
