NAME

File::ShareDir::Tarball - Deal transparently with shared files distributed as tarballs

VERSION

version 0.2.2

SYNOPSIS

    use File::ShareDir::Tarball ':all';
    # use exactly like File::ShareDir
    $dir = dist_dir('File-ShareDir');

DESCRIPTION

If the shared files of a distribution are contained in a tarball (see Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ShareDir::Tarball for why you would want to do that), automatically extract the archive in a temporary directory and return the path to that directory. If called for a regular distribution without a bundle file ("shared-files.tar.gz"), it'll return the original shared dir. In other words, from the consumer point of view, it'll behave just like File::ShareDir.
