NAME

PITA::Report::Distribution - Data object representing a single distribution

SYNOPSIS

# Create a distribution specification
my $dist = PITA::Report::Distribution->new(
	distname => 'PITA-Report',
	filename => '...',
	md5sum   => '0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF',
	# Optional path within CPAN
	cpanpath => '...',
	);

DESCRIPTION

PITA::Report::Distribition is an object for holding information about a distribution to be tested. It is created most often as part of the parsing of a PITA::Report XML file.

It holds the name of the distribition, an MD5 sum used for error checking purposes, and some paths (private and CPAN).

METHODS

distname

The distname accessor returns the name of the distribution as a string.

Most often, this would be something like 'Foo-Bar' with a primary focus on the class Foo::Bar.

filename

The filename accessor returns ...

md5sum

The md5sum accessor returns the MD5 sum for package. This is only used as a CRC and isn't assumed to be cryptographically secure.

cpanpath

When testing CPAN distributions, the cpanpath returns the path for the distribution file within the CPAN.

For non-CPAN distributions, returns false (the null string).
