App::podweaver 1.00 (belatedly) released

Sam Graham — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 21:59:00 GMT

Yanick Champoux has posted the first of what promises to be an interesting series of blogs: Taming Pod::Weaver.

In it he mentions App::podweaver, which reminded me - a year after the fact - that I hadn't released a stable release yet.

So I have. Should be hitting a CPAN mirror near you soon.

Biggest change is that it should now respect perlbrew installs.

App::podweaver and Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::ReplaceBoilerplate

Sam Graham — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 13:16:00 GMT

As mentioned in my previous article, "Still Alive and What I've Been Up To", I've been working on a way to let me use Pod::Weaver without being forced down the route of using Dist::Zilla.

(The reason for not using Dist::Zilla is that its work-flow doesn't fit mine.)

To that end I've developed App::podweaver, Pod::Weaver::Role::SectionReplacer, and Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::ReplaceBoilerplate.

All the above are GitHub because they're not yet ready for CPAN release, since they lack important things like, oh, tests that they don't go nuts and delete all your code.

That said they're at a stable enough stage that I've used them to weave their own documentation without trouble, and are potentially of enough use and interest for me to put them up for early adopters to take a look at, or for people to copy the guts to do their own thing with.

For more details on what does what, carry on reading below the cut.

Still Alive and What I've Been Up To

Sam Graham — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 11:03:00 GMT

I've failed the Perl Iron Man Challenge again, but I'm still alive, just busy.

I've had a couple of articles semi-written for the past two weeks, but they still very much works-in-progress, because they're about projects that are still... very much in-progress.

So I thought I'd post an interim report in the style of the "What I'm Working On" posts that crop up every so often.

One project is getting Pod::Weaver to do what I want, as mentioned in my previous article, "To Dist::Zilla, or not to Dist::Zilla?", this has involved using Moose for the first time, Pod::Weaver for the first time, Pod::Elemental for the first time, Config::MVP for the first time, and Git for the first time.
