lib/Alien/Build/Plugin/Download/GitHub.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

Boolean value for those repositories that do not upgrade their tags to releases.
There are two different endpoints. One for
L<releases|https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#list-releases-for-a-repository>
and one for simple L<tags|https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-tags>. The
default is to interrogate the former for downloads. Passing a true value for
L</"tags_only"> interrogates the latter for downloads.

=head2 version

Regular expression that can be used to extract a version from a GitHub tag.  The
default ( C<qr/^v?(.*)$/> ) is reasonable for many GitHub repositories.

=head2 prefer

How to sort candidates for selection.  This should be one of three types of values:

=over 4

=item code reference

This will be used as the prefer hook.

=back

=head2 asset

Download from assets instead of via tag.  This option is incompatible with
C<tags_only>.

=head2 asset_name

Regular expression which the asset name should match.  The default is C<qr/\.tar\.gz$/>.

=head2 asset_format

The format of the asset.  This is passed to L<Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Negotiate>
so any format supported by that is valid.

[version 0.10]

If this is set to C<none> then no extractor will be added.  This allows for you to write
your own extractor code, or use a non-standard one.
