NAME
    Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Twitter - Twitter when you release with Dist::Zilla

VERSION
    version 0.024

SYNOPSIS
    In your dist.ini:

        [Twitter]
        hash_tags = #foo
        url_shortener = TinyURL

DESCRIPTION
    This plugin will use Net::Twitter to send a release notice to Twitter.
    By default, it will include a link to release on <http://metacpan.org>.

    The default configuration is as follows:

        [Twitter]
        tweet_url = https://metacpan.org/release/{{$AUTHOR_UC}}/{{$DIST}}-{{$VERSION}}/
        tweet = Released {{$DIST}}-{{$VERSION}}{{$TRIAL}} {{$URL}} !META{resources}{repository}{web}
        url_shortener = TinyURL

    The "tweet_url" is shortened with WWW::Shorten::TinyURL or whichever
    other service you choose (use 'none' to use the full URL, in which case
    Twitter will shorten it for you) and appended to the "tweet" message.

  VARIABLE INTERPOLATION
    The following variables are available for substitution in the URL and
    message templates:

          DIST        # Foo-Bar
          MODULE      # Foo::Bar
          ABSTRACT    # Foo-Bar is a module that FooBars
          VERSION     # 1.23
          TRIAL       # -TRIAL if is_trial, empty string otherwise.
          TARBALL     # Foo-Bar-1.23.tar.gz
          AUTHOR_UC   # JOHNDOE
          AUTHOR_LC   # johndoe
          AUTHOR_PATH # J/JO/JOHNDOE
          URL         # http://tinyurl.com/...

   DISTMETA INTERPOLATION
    Resources information available in the META.* files of the distribution
    can be accessed via "<META{key}{subkey}[1]">. You may mix-and-match
    "{...}" to access hashref elements and "[\d]" to access arrayref
    elements. You're responsible for making sure you are accessing the right
    part of the META data structure, and treating it as the right type of
    data. See CPAN::Meta::Spec and the "$TYPE DATA" sections of CPAN::Meta
    in particular.

    The "META{...}" replacement may also have one of two modifiers, which
    are prefixed directly before "META":

    "!" - URL shortening
        Providing an exclamation point ("!META{...}") will URL-shorten the
        value you extract from the distmeta data structure. This will have
        no effect unless the value is a URL to begin with.

    "@" - Arrayref stringification
        Providing an at-symbol (@META{...}) will include all the elements of
        the arrayref you specify by joining them with $". So, this is just
        like doing "@{ $your_array_ref }".

    So, for example, to use the GitHub home of the project instead of its
    metacpan page, one can do:

        [Twitter]
        tweet = Released {{$DIST}}-{{$VERSION}}{{$TRIAL}} !META{resource}{repository}{web}
        url_shortener = TinyURL

    Or, to include the authors in your tweet:

        [Twitter]
        tweet = @META{author} released {{$MODULE}} {{$VERSION}}: {{$URL}}

  PAUSEID
    You must be using the "UploadToCPAN" or "FakeRelease" plugin for this
    plugin to determine your PAUSEID.

  HASHTAGS
    You can use the "hash_tags" option to append hash tags (or anything,
    really) to the end of the message generated from "tweet".

        [Twitter]
        hash_tags = #perl #cpan #foo
