NAME
App::lcpan::Call - Check that local CPAN mirror exists and is fairly recent
VERSION
This document describes version 0.120 of App::lcpan::Call (from Perl distribution App-lcpan-Call), released on 2021-07-21.
FUNCTIONS
call_lcpan_script
Usage:
call_lcpan_script(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]"Call" lcpan script.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
argv => array[str] (default: [])
max_age => duration
Maximum index age (in seconds).
If unspecified, will look at
LCPAN_MAX_AGEenvironment variable. If that is also undefined, will default to 14 days.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.
Return value: (any)
check_lcpan
Usage:
check_lcpan(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]Check that local CPAN mirror exists and is fairly recent.
Will return status 200 if lcpan script is installed (available from PATH), local CPAN mirror exists, and is fairly recent and queryable. This routine will actually attempt to run "lcpan stats-last-index-time" and return the result if the result is 200 and the index is updated quite recently. By default "quite recently" is defined as not older than 2 weeks or whatever LCPAN_MAX_AGE says (in seconds).
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
max_age => duration
Maximum index age (in seconds).
If unspecified, will look at
LCPAN_MAX_AGEenvironment variable. If that is also undefined, will default to 14 days.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.
