NAME
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Directory - Plugin to extract a
       downloaded directory to a build directory

VERSION
       version 2.80

SYNOPSIS
        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Extract::Directory';

DESCRIPTION
       Some Download or Fetch plugins may produce a directory instead of an
       archive file.  This plugin is used to mirror the directory from the
       Download step into a fresh directory in the Extract step.  An example
       of when you might use this plugin is if you were using the "git"
       command in the Download step, which results in a directory hierarchy.

PROPERTIES
   format
       Should always set to "d" (for directories).

METHODS
   handles
        Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Directory->handles($ext);
        $plugin->handles($ext);

       Returns true if the plugin is able to handle the archive of the given
       format.  Only returns true for "d" (for directory).

   available
        Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Directory->available($ext);
        $plugin->available($ext);

       Returns true if the plugin can extract the given format with what is
       already installed.
