Revision history for CPAN-Meta
2.150010 2016-08-18 12:10:08-04:00 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- the YAML and JSON backend variables are ignored when building/testing the
perl core itself, where non-core backends are not yet installed.
[CHANGED]
- Added "use warnings" to Parse::CPAN::Meta
2.150009 2016-07-02 21:07:49-04:00 America/New_York (TRIAL RELEASE)
[FIXED]
- Fixed used of Encode in Parse::CPAN::Meta::load_json_string
(Cherry picked from Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4422)
2.150008 2016-06-28 17:01:03-04:00 America/New_York (TRIAL RELEASE)
[ADDED]
- Merged Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4420 into this distribution
2.150007 2016-06-28 03:48:16-04:00 America/New_York (TRIAL RELEASE)
[FIXED]
- The cloning routine would raise an error on expected types when it
previously would stringify. The old behavior is restored.

[FIXED]
- CPAN::Meta::Prereqs now fully accepts phases and types starting with 'x_'.
New 'phases' and 'types_in' interfaces have been added.

documented.
- During tests, delete new environment variables added by
Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4418
[SPEC]

don't conflict
2.150001 2015-03-09 14:41:39-04:00 America/New_York
[DOCUMENTED]
- Include allowed values for license field in 1.x historic licenses rather
than linking to Module::Build
- Documented when fragment merging became available
2.143240 2014-11-20 10:26:30-05:00 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- Give correct path in nested merges such as resources
- Removed strings test that should have been removed when
CPAN::Meta::Requirements was removed to a separate dist
2.142690 2014-09-26 11:06:34-04:00 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- Fixed use of incorrect method in CPAN::Meta::Merge implementation
[DOCUMENTED]
- Clarified that no_index is a list of exclusions, and that indexers
should generally exclude 'inc', 'xt' and 't' as well.
- CPAN::Meta::History::Meta_1_0 through 1_4 are added as a permanent
record of 1.x versions of the metaspec
2.142060 2014-07-25 13:30:06-04:00 America/New_York
[ADDED]
- CPAN::Meta::Merge is a new class for merging two possibly overlapping
instances of metadata. It will accept both CPAN::Meta objects and
(possibly incomplete) hashrefs of metadata.
2.141520 2014-05-31 23:41:13-04:00 America/New_York
[DOCUMENTED]
- Clarified use of 'file' for the 'provides' field in the Spec
2.141170 2014-04-27 13:03:37-04:00 America/New_York
[ADDED]
- Added ability for CPAN::Meta::Converter to convert metadata fragments
(incomplete portions of a metadata structure)
[CHANGED]
- Optimized internal use of JSON for datastructure cloning
[FIXED]
- Removed dependency on List::Util 1.33
[DOCUMENTED]
- Clarified language around 'dynamic_config' in the Spec
2.140640 2014-03-05 09:07:05-05:00 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- A change to the default meta-spec URL in 2.140630 from search.cpan.org
to metacpan.org broke Module::Build and ExtUtils::MakeMaker. This
reverts that change. Also added the missing change note to the prior
version.
2.140630 2014-03-04 15:23:40-05:00 America/New_York
[CHANGED]
- Default meta-spec URL points to metacpan.org instead of search.cpan.org
[ADDED]
- Added a 'load_string' method that guesses whether the string
is YAML or JSON
2.133380 2013-12-03 23:01:07 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- Improved bad version handling during META conversion
- When downgrading multiple licenses to version 1.x META formats, if all
the licenses are open source, the downgraded license will be
"open_source", not "unknown"
2.132830 2013-10-10 16:04:30 America/New_York
[ADDED]
- CPAN::Meta::Prereqs now has a 'merged_requirements' method for
combining requirements across multiple phases and types
[FIXED]
- Invalid 'meta-spec' is no longer a fatal error: instead, it will
usually be treated as spec version "1.0" (prior to formalization of the
meta-spec field). Conversion has some heuristics for guessing a
version depending on other fields if 'meta-spec' is missing or invalid.
2.132661 2013-09-23 13:27:46 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- updated Makefile.PL logic to support PERL_NO_HIGHLANDER
[PREREQS]
- Dropped ExtUtils::MakeMaker configure_requires dependency
to 6.17
2.132660 2013-09-23 06:04:04 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- Installation on Perls < 5.12 will uninstall older versions installed
due to being bundled with ExtUtils::MakeMaker
2.132620 2013-09-19 11:18:33 America/New_York
[CHANGED]
- META validation used to allow a scalar value when a list (i.e. array
reference) was required for a field. This has been tightened and
validation will now fail if a scalar value is given. Conversion will
continue to turn scalars into an array reference as it previously did.
2.132510 2013-09-08 10:17:29 America/New_York
[FIXED]
- Fixed incorrectly encoded META.yml
2.132140 2013-08-02 11:54:17 America/New_York
[DOCUMENTATION]
- Fixed some typos in CPAN::Meta::Spec
[OTHER]
- migrated repository to Perl-Toolchain-Gang organization on Github and
updated metadata accordingly
2.131560 2013-06-05 15:26:36 America/New_York
[DOCUMENTATION]
- Replaced CPAN::Meta SYNOPSIS with code that actually works
2.131490 2013-05-29 14:15:16 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Downconversion of custom resources was not dropping the leading "x_".
Now "x_MailingList" will downconvert correctly to "MailingList".
[SPEC]
- Per the Lancaster Consensus, the 'file' subkey of a package listed in
'provides' must refer to an actual file in the distribution, either the
.pm file that provides the package or another file (*.PL) that
generates it
2.130880 2013-03-29 09:51:00 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Fix provides 'version' bug introduced in the 2.130870 fix
2.130870 2013-03-28 11:08:50 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Don't add 'version' to 'provides' during conversion if one didn't
exist in the original [Reported by Miyagawa; fixed by David Golden]
2.120921 2012-04-01 15:20:24 Europe/Paris
[REMOVED]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements has been split out into its own distribution
so it can be used by CPAN.pm without requiring all of CPAN::Meta
2.120920 2012-04-01 11:30:43 Europe/Paris
[ADDED]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements now has a 'requirements_for_module' method
to retrieve a version requirements string for a specific module
[Leon Timmermans]
[OTHER]
- Parse::CPAN::Meta prerequisite bumped to 1.4403
- JSON::PP prerequisites bumped to 2.27200
- CPAN::Meta::YAML prerequisite bumped to 0.008
2.120900 2012-03-30 13:15:15 Europe/Paris
[BUGFIX]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements now treats undef requirements given to
from_string_hash() as '0' and warns about it; add_string_requirements()
dies if it does not get a requirements string to parse
2.120630 2012-03-03 14:48:35 EST5EDT
[BUGFIX]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements now ensures that dotted-decimal versions are
represented in normalized form when stringified. This fixes a
regression in META conversion in 2.120620.
[Reported by Kent Fredric; fixed by David Golden]
2.120620 2012-03-02 12:28:59 EST5EDT
[ADDED]
- CPAN::Meta::Requirements::add_string_requirements allows building
a requirements specification piecemeal [Cory G. Watson]
[BUGFIX]
- Version range handling fixed [rt.cpan.org #75424]
- CPAN::Meta::Converter handles bad version strings more gracefully,
truncating alphanumerics and otherwise falling back to "0". This
is likely better than dropping a prerequisite or dying.
[rt.cpan.org #75427]
2.120530 2012-02-22 16:15:31 EST5EDT
[OTHER]
- Dialed back perl prereq to 5.006

in boolean context.
2.113640 2011-12-30 15:19:46 America/New_York
[OTHER]

rendering Version::Requirements itself redundant
2.112621 2011-09-19 12:15:16 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Spell BACKEND environment variables correctly this time
[noticed by Stevan Little]
2.112620 2011-09-18 20:56:06 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Protect tests against PERL_(YAML|JSON)_BACKEND settings that could
cause tests to fail. (RT #69979)
2.112600 2011-09-17 12:21:09 America/New_York
[DOCUMENTATION]

Unix-style (i.e. forward slashes) (RT #69045)
- Replaced examples using Module::Build::ModuleInfo with Module::Metadata
(RT #66135)
2.110930 2011-04-02 23:31:24 America/New_York
[BUGFIX]
- Fixed a bug in the 'as_string' method that checked the module version
instead of the meta-spec version when conversion was requested
(RT #67188)
2.110910 2011-04-01 08:55:30 America/New_York
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- The 1.x spec "gpl" and "lgpl" and "mozilla" license values now up-convert
to "open_source" because they indicate too non-specific a license.
2.110580 2011-02-27 07:58:06 EST5EDT
[OTHER]
- Add explicit dependencies on JSON::PP and CPAN::Meta::YAML instead
of relying on Parse::CPAN::Meta to provide them (as some CPAN Testers
have had P::C::M installed without them somehow)
- Removed dependency on Storable as it was not a core module
until Perl 5.8
2.110550 2011-02-24 07:17:57 EST5EDT
[OTHER]
- Added required field 'release_status' to the synopsis of
CPAN::Meta::Spec (RT#66118) [Oliver Mengué]
2.110540 2011-02-23 15:21:16 EST5EDT
[BUGFIX]
- Had two different Parse::CPAN::Meta requirements, one in 'requires' and
the other in 'build_requires'. This confused some installers, so we
only inlude the 'requires' now.
2.110440 2011-02-12 22:55:28 EST5EDT
[BUGFIX]
- Bump Parse::CPAN::Meta prereq to 1.44, as 1.43 was never released
2.110420 2011-02-11 15:40:36 EST5EDT
[BUG FIXES]
- The as_string() method now always returns a character string;
previously, JSON strings were UTF-8 encoded.
- The save() method now always saves with UTF-8 encoding for
Perl 5.8.1 or greater; previously, YAML was not encoded
2.110390 2011-02-07 21:00:47 EST5EDT
[BUG FIXES]
- Release 2.110360 had a regression where the save() method would no
longer return true on success. That has been fixed.
2.110360 2011-02-04 19:46:21 America/New_York
[OTHER]
- Remove autodie dependency so CPAN::Meta can be used on older Perls
- Remove unused Data::Dumper dependency
2.110350 2011-02-03 19:57:32 America/New_York
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Added "as_string" method similar to "as_struct"
[OTHER]
- Bumped Parse::CPAN::Meta prereq to 1.43 and uses that to
determine proper YAML/JSON backends
- Removed unused prereqs
2.110330 2011-02-02 09:42:57 EST5EDT
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Saved META.json files are now sorted by key
- as_struct() method takes an optional "version" argument to return
a down-converted metadata hashref
2.110320 2011-01-31 23:14:30 EST5EDT
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- The 'save' method now allows an optional hashref argument, which can be
used to set the desired meta spec version. Metadata is automatically
converted to the specified output.
2.110240 2011-01-24 16:28:25 EST5EDT
- Reading JSON/YAML is delegated entirely to Parse::CPAN::Meta (1.4200)
- JSON.pm is dropped as a prerequisite and JSON::PP is added to prepare
for CPAN::Meta to be added to the Perl core
- JSON writing uses the same JSON backend selection as Parse::CPAN::Meta
to allow "upgrading" to a non-core JSON backend module if desired
2.102400 2010-08-28 14:06:34 America/New_York
- 'as_struct' method now returns unblessed data (reported by Chris Prather)
2.102160 2010-08-04 12:27:10 EST5EDT
- Fix bugtracker conversion bug (RT#60017)
2.101670 2010-06-15 21:02:42 EST5EDT
- converting 1.x 'repository' field now puts converted url into the
'url' sub-field of 'repository' instead of the 'web' sub-field
2.101610 2010-06-10 18:51:30 EST5EDT
- fixed converter bug that output 'artistic2' instead of 'artistic_2'
for license in 1.X specs
- 'artistic2' is now converted to 'artistic_2' if it occurs
- corrected validation for 'artistic_2' and disallowed 'artistic-2.0'
2.101600 2010-06-09 10:07:31 EST5EDT
- improve conversion of restricted/restrictive license keys between
spec versions 1.4 and 2 [reported by Alexander Hartmaier]
2.101591 2010-06-08 09:56:17 EST5EDT
- added 'as_struct' method to CPAN::Meta to get a deep copy of
the metadata hash_ref
- won't add an optional_features 'description' field if missing
- improved documentation of CPAN::Meta::Converter and how it deals
with bad/missing data
2.101590 2010-06-07 21:49:36 EST5EDT
- won't automatically add 'unknown' as repository type when converting;
instead, will only add a repository type if a repository 'url' is
present and it is of the 'svn:' or 'git:' scheme.
- squelched some uninitialized value warnings [Graham Barr]
2.101580 2010-06-07 16:44:13 EST5EDT
- add "lazy_validation" option to constructors
- add ability to "convert" to same version and clean-up any fixable
errors
- fix validation bugs (adhere closer to the spec)
- improve lots of heuristics during conversion
2.101461 2010-05-26 16:57:02 America/New_York
- accessors deep clone list and map keys before returning them
- add custom_keys() and custom() methods
2.101460 2010-05-25 23:12:27 America/New_York
- loosen URL validation -- only a scheme and authority are required
without restrictions on either
2.101450 2010-05-25 17:59:32 America/New_York
- when downconverting from 2, leave custom keys unchanged
(except in resources, where x_ is changed to X_)
- when converting to 2, don't prepend x_ to custom keys that already
matched qr{\Ax_}i
2.101410 2010-05-21 10:39:18 EST5EDT
- when downconverting from 2, merge test requirements into build requirements
2.101390 2010-05-19 10:49:50 EST5EDT
- do not clobber generated_by when converting
2.101380 2010-05-17 23:39:23 EST5EDT
- added support for down-converting to older versions of the spec
- improved test coverage for conversion and validation
2.101110 2010-04-21 11:06:52 EST5EDT
- clarified that .XXXXXX versions of the CPAN-Meta distribution will not
change the meaning of the CPAN::Meta::Spec, but may fix typos or
clarify prose
- fixed a typo regarding dotted-integer versions: keeping components
in the range 0-999 was corrected to a "should" instead of a "must"
- fixed validation bugs for certain types of nested data structures
(based on a patch provided by Barbie)
2.101091 2010-04-19 06:32:13 EST5EDT
- keep the old specs from getting indexed so as not to confuse people
