# Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::Override ![linux](https://github.com/PerlAlien/Alien-Build-Plugin-Probe-Override/workflows/linux/badge.svg)

Override on a per-alien basis

# SYNOPSIS

in your `~/.alienbuild/rc.pl`:

```perl

preload 'Probe::Override';

sub override {

  my($dist) = @_;

  return 'system'  if $dist eq 'Alien-gmake';

  return 'share'   if $dist eq 'Alien-FFI';

  return 'default' if $dist eq 'Alien-libuv';  # lets the alienfile choose

  return ''; # fall back on $ENV{ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE}

};

```

# DESCRIPTION

This [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile) plugin allows you to override the install type (either

`share`, `system` or `default`) on a per-Alien basis.  All you have to

do is preload this plugin and then provide a subroutine override, which

takes a dist name (similar to a module name, but with dashes instead of

double colon).  It should return one of:

- system

    For a system install

- share

    For a share install

- default

    Fallback on the [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile) default.

- `''`

    Fallback first on `ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE` and then on the [alienfile](https://metacpan.org/pod/alienfile) default.
