NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::OSPrereqs - List prereqs conditional on operating system

VERSION

version 0.011

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

  [OSPrereqs / MSWin32]
  Win32API::File = 0.11

or

  [OSPrereqs]
  prereq_os = MSWin32
  Win32API::File = 0.11

Some prefixes are recognized, i.e. ! (not), ~ (regex match), !~ (regex non-match). Regex matches are done case-insensitively for convenience:

  ; require on non-Win32 system
  [OSPrereqs]
  prereq_os = !MSWin32
  Proc::ProcessTable = 0.50

  ; require on BSD
  [OSPrereqs]
  prereq_os = ~bsd
  BSD::Resource = 0

  ; require on non-Windows system
  [OSPrereqs / !~win]
  Proc::ProcessTable = 0.50

DESCRIPTION

This Dist::Zilla plugin allows you to specify OS-specific prerequisites. You must give the plugin a name corresponding to an operating system that would appear in $^O. Any prerequisites listed will be conditionally added to PREREQ_PM in the Makefile.PL

WARNING

This plugin works for Makefile.PL generated by the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MakeMaker plugin or the Build.PL generated by the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ModuleBuild plugin, and must appear in your dist.ini after whichever you use.

This plugin is a fairly gross hack, based on the technique used for Dist::Zilla::Plugin::DualLife and might break if/when Dist::Zilla changes how it generates install scripts.
