NAME

CPAN::Audit::Freshness - check freshness of CPAN::Audit::DB

SYNOPSIS

use CPAN::Audit::Freshness;

# from the command-line, with default threshold
% perl -MCPAN::Audit::Freshness cpan-audit

# from the command-line, with specified threshold of 5 days
% perl -MCPAN::Audit::Freshness=5 cpan-audit
% env CPAN_AUDIT_FRESH_DAYS=30 perl -MCPAN::Audit::Freshness cpan-audit

DESCRIPTION

When loaded, this module outputs a warning if it thinks the version of CPANSA::DB is too old. It does this by comparing the version of that module, which is date-based, with the current time. The default threshold is 30 days, although you can set the value of CPAN_AUDIT_FRESH_DAYS.

This previously checked the deprecated CPAN::Audit::DB module, but there is no version of that module that is fresh where CPANSA::DB isn't present.

There is no other functionality for this module.
