With plugins (better):

share {
start_url 'http://libarchive.org/downloads/';
plugin Download => (
filter => qr/^libarchive-.*\.tar\.gz$/,
version => qr/([0-9\.]+)/,
);
plugin Extract => 'tar.gz';
plugin 'Build::Autoconf';
build [
'%{configure} --disable-shared',
'%{make}',
'%{make} install',
];
};
requires $module; requires $module => $version;
configure time requirement:
configure {
requires $module;
requires $module => $version;
};
system requirement:
sys {
requires $module;
requires $module => $version;
};
share requirement:
share {
requires $module;
requires $module => $version;
};
specifies a requirement. Alien::Build takes advantage of dynamic requirements, so only modules that are needed for the specific type of install need to be loaded. Here are the different types of requirements:
plugin $name => (%args); plugin $name => $arg;
Load the given plugin. If you prefix the plugin name with an "=" sign, then it will be assumed to be a fully qualified path name. Otherwise the plugin will be assumed to live in the "Alien::Build::Plugin" namespace. If there is an appropriate negotiate plugin, that one will be loaded. Examples:
# Loads Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch::Negotiate # which will pick the best Alien::Build::Plugin::Fetch # plugin based on the URL, and system configuration plugin 'Fetch' => 'http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc'; # loads the plugin with the badly named class! plugin '=Badly::Named::Plugin::Not::In::Alien::Build::Namespace'; # explicitly loads Alien::Build::Plugin::Prefer::SortVersions plugin 'Prefer::SortVersions => ( filter => qr/^gcc-.*\.tar\.gz$/, version => qr/([0-9\.]+)/, );
probe \&code; probe \@commandlist;
Instructions for the probe stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
configure {
...
};
Configure block. The only directive allowed in a configure block is requires.
sys {
...
};
System block. Allowed directives are: requires and gather.
share {
...
};
System block. Allowed directives are: download, fetch, decode, prefer, extract, build, gather.
share {
start_url $url;
};
Set the start URL for download. This should be the URL to an index page, or the actual tarball of the source.
share {
download \&code;
download \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the download stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
fetch \&code;
fetch \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the fetch stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
decode \&code;
decode \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the decode stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
prefer \&code;
prefer \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the prefer stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
extract \&code;
extract \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the extract stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
patch \&code;
patch \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the patch stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
patch_ffi \&code;
patch_ffi \@commandlist;
};
[DEPRECATED]
Instructions for the patch_ffi stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
build \&code;
build \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the build stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list.
share {
build \&code;
build \@commandlist;
};
[DEPRECATED]
Instructions for the build FFI stage. Builds shared libraries instead of static. This is optional, and is only necessary if a fresh and separate build needs to be done for FFI.
gather \&code;
gather \@commandlist;
share {
gather \&code;
gather \@commandlist;
};
sys {
gather \&code;
gather \@commandlist;
};
Instructions for the gather stage. May be either a code reference, or a command list. In the root block of the alienfile it will trigger in both share and system build. In the share or sys block it will only trigger in the corresponding build.
share {
gather_ffi \&code;
gather_ffi \@commandlist;
}
[DEPRECATED]
Gather specific to "build_ffi". Not usually necessary.
share {
ffi {
patch \&code;
patch \@commandlist;
build \&code;
build \@commandlist;
gather \&code;
gather \@commandlist;
}
}
Specify patch, build or gather stages related to FFI.
my $hash = meta_prop;
Get the meta_prop hash reference.
my $meta = meta;
Returns the meta object for your alienfile.
log($message);
Prints the given log to stdout.
share {
test \&code;
test \@commandlist;
};
sys {
test \&code;
test \@commandlist;
};
before $stage => \&code;
Execute the given code before the given stage. Stage should be one of "probe", "download", "fetch", "decode", "prefer", "extract", "patch", "build", "test", and "gather".
The before directive is only legal in the same blocks as the stage would normally be legal in. For example, you can't do this:
use alienfile;
sys {
before 'build' => sub {
...
};
};
Because a "build" wouldn't be legal inside a "sys" block.
after $stage => \&code;
Execute the given code after the given stage. Stage should be one of "probe", "download", "fetch", "decode", "prefer", "extract", "patch", "build", "test", and "gather".
The after directive is only legal in the same blocks as the stage would normally be legal in. For example, you can't do this:
use alienfile;
sys {
after 'build' => sub {
...
};
};
Because a "build" wouldn't be legal inside a "sys" block.
