Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run(3pm)

NAME
Dist::Zilla::App::Command::run - run stuff in a dir where your dist is built VERSION
version 4.300020 SYNOPSIS
$ dzil run ./bin/myscript $ dzil run prove -bv t/mytest.t $ dzil run bash DESCRIPTION
This command will build your dist with Dist::Zilla, then build the distribution and then run a command in the build directory. It's something like doing this: dzil build rsync -avp My-Project-version/ .build/ cd .build perl Makefile.PL # or perl Build.PL make # or ./Build export PERL5LIB=$PWD/blib/lib:$PWD/blib/arch <your command as defined by rest of params> Except for the fact it's built directly in a subdir of .build (like .build/69105y2). A command returning with an non-zero error code will left the build directory behind for analysis, and "dzil" will exit with a non-zero status. Otherwise, the build directory will be removed and dzil will exit with status zero. If no run command is provided, a new default shell is invoked. This can be useful for testing your distribution as if it were installed. AUTHOR
