+[@Author::KENTNL::Lite]

dzil build

# NAMING SCHEME

Please read my rant in ["NAMING SCHEME" in Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::KENTNL](https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::KENTNL#NAMING-SCHEME) about the Author:: convention.

# DESCRIPTION

This is an attempt at one way of solving a common problem when contributing to things built with
[`Dist::Zilla`](https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla).

This is done by assuming that the code base that its targeting will **NEVER** be released in its built form,
but close enough to the normal build method that it's suitable for testing and contributing.

- Less install time dependencies
- More phases in the `PluginBundle` generation are 'optional'
- Less points of failure

Good examples of things I've experienced in this category are the 2 following ( But awesome ) plug-ins that I use everywhere.

## [The `::Git` Plug-ins](https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Git)

These plug-ins are great, don't get me wrong, but they pose a barrier for people on Win32, and in fact, anyone without a copy of
Git installed, ( Its hard enough getting a copy of the pre-release source without Git, but that's available in `tar.gz` and
`.zip` on `github` ).

Working Copies of Git plug-ins are also nonessential if you're not building releases.

## [The `::Twitter` Plug-in](https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Twitter)

Also, a handy plug-in to have, but you're not going to be needing it unless you're tweeting a release, and usually,
that means you're me.

Some of its dependencies have been known to fail tests on Windows platforms, and thus block automatic installation, so seeing
you don't have any use for this, its sensible to leave it out.

# METHODS

## bundle\_config

See [the `PluginBundle` role](https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::Role::PluginBundle) for what this is for, it is a method to satisfy that role.
