NAME

    Dist::Zilla::Plugin::AlienBuild - Use Alien::Build with Dist::Zilla

VERSION

    version 0.20

SYNOPSIS

     [AlienBuild]

DESCRIPTION

    This Dist::Zilla plugin is designed to help create Alien modules using
    the alienfile and Alien::Build recipe system with Alien::Base. The
    intent is that you will maintain your alienfile as you normally would,
    and this plugin will ensure the right prereqs are specified in the
    META.json and other things that are easy to get not quite right.

    Specifically, this plugin:

    adds prereqs

      Adds the configure requirements to your dist configure requires. It
      adds the any requirements from your alienfile to your dist build
      requires.

    adjusts Makefile.PL

      Adjusts your Makefile.PL to use Alien::Build::MM. If you are using
      ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

    sets the mb_class for Build.PL

      sets mb_class to Alien::Build::MB on the
      Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ModuleBuild plugin. If you are using
      Module::Build.

    turn on dynamic prereqs

      Which are used by most Alien::Build based Alien distributions.
