Dear #Perl #ToolChain #DistZilla lazyfedi,

Is there a plugin that generates repository metadata by just bashing the origin (or other designated) #git remote URL into HTTPS? I don't use the .git suffix for my remote URLs, but it could strip that off for the web key if present.

I'd also like the option to generate the bugtracker.web URL by appending a suffix to the repositry.web URL, e.g. /issues.

I don't know of one. I use Dist::Zilla::Plugin::GithubMeta which is GitHub-centric, but it'd be darn easy to convert to just use .git/config, I think!

@rjbs Yeah, this is for migrating away from #GitHub (to #CodeBerg but I'd rather have it be host/forge-agnostic).
in reply to ilmari

Yeah, figured that'd be the goal. If you publish (or find!) one, let me know, I'm interested (but very unlikely to move atm).
