SYNOPSIS

    In your plugin's preamble, include the role:

     with 'Dist::Zilla::Role::RequireFromBuild';

    Then in your plugin subroutine, e.g. munge_files():

     $self->require_from_build("Foo/Bar.pm");
     $self->require_from_build("Baz::Quux");

DESCRIPTION

    require_from_build() is like Perl's require() except it looks for files
    not from @INC but from build files $self->zilla->files. It searches
    libraries in lib/ and ..

    $self->require_from_build("Foo/Bar.pm") or
    $self->require_from_build("Foo::Bar") is a convenient shortcut for
    something like:

     my @files = grep { $_->name eq "lib/Foo/Bar.pm" } @{ $self->zilla->files };
     @files    = grep { $_->name eq "Foo/Bar.pm" }     $self->zilla->files unless @files;
     die "Can't find Foo/Bar.pm in lib/ or ./ in build files" unless @files;
    
     # write to temporary file, because the file object is not necessarily a
     # Dist::Zilla::File::OnDisk object or it is already munged so the file
     # no longer has the same content as the on-disk file.
     require File::Temp;
     my ($fh, $filename) = File::Temp::tempfile();
     print $fh $files[0]->encoded_content;
     close $fh;
     do $filename;

METHODS

 $obj->require_from_build($file)
