NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::RPM - Build an RPM from your Dist::Zilla release

VERSION

version 0.006

SYNOPSIS

In your dist.ini:

    [RPM]
    spec_file = build/dist.spec
    sign = 1
    ignore_build_deps = 0

DESCRIPTION

This plugin is a Releaser for Dist::Zilla that builds an RPM of your distribution.

ATTRIBUTES

spec_file (default: "build/dist.spec")

The spec file to use to build the RPM.

The spec file is run through Text::Template before calling rpmbuild, so you can substitute values from Dist::Zilla into the final output. The template uses <% %> tags (like Mason) as delimiters to avoid conflict with standard spec file markup.

Two variables are available in the template:

$zilla

The main Dist::Zilla object

$archive

The filename of the release tarball

sign (default: False)

If set to a true value, rpmbuild will be called with the --sign option.

ignore_build_deps (default: False)

If set to a true value, rpmbuild will be called with the --nodeps option.
