Installing and tracking software updates with toast

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 15:00:00 GMT
Using toast takes the burden out of building, installing, and keeping track of software built from source. You can use toast to build and maintain software installed in your /home directory as a regular user, or to set up software for all users in /usr/local. toast can obtain packages over HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and via SSH and CVS. It can handle most archive formats, as well as .rpm and .deb packages.

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

NAME
Dist::Zilla::App::Command::build - build your dist VERSION
version 4.300020 SYNOPSIS
dzil build [ --trial ] [ --tgz | --no-tgz ] [ --in /path/to/build/dir ] DESCRIPTION
This command is a very thin layer over the Dist::Zilla "build" method, which does all the things required to build your distribution. By default, it will also archive your distribution and leave you with a complete, ready-to-release distribution tarball. EXAMPLE
$ dzil build $ dzil build --no-tgz $ dzil build --in /path/to/build/dir OPTIONS
--trial This will build a trial distribution. Among other things, it will generally mean that the built tarball's basename ends in -TRIAL. --tgz | --no-tgz Builds a .tar.gz in your project directory after building the distribution. --tgz behaviour is by default, use --no-tgz to disable building an archive. --in Specifies the directory into which the distribution should be built. If necessary, the directory will be created. An archive will not be created. AUTHOR
