NAME
orepan2-s3
DESCRIPTION
This script is used to add distributions to your own DarkPAN repository housed on Amazon's S3 storage. It leverages OrePAN2 to create and maintain your own DarkPAN repository. You can read more about setting up a DarkPAN on Amazon using S3 + Cloudfront here.
USAGE
orepan2-s3.pl Options Command
Perl script for maintaining a DarkPAN mirror using S3 + CloudFront.
NOTE: orepan2-s3 is the bash script that calls this Perl script. The documentation here refers to the Perl script, however you should use the bash script for adding and deleting CPAN distributions from your DarkPAN repo.
Commmands
create - Create a new index.html from the mirror's manifest file.
download - Download the mirror's manifest file (02packages.details.text.gz).
show - Print the manifest file to STDOUT or a file.
upload - Upload the index.html file to the mirror's root.
dump-template - Outputs the default index.html template.
create-docs - parse distribution looking for a README.md and/or pod
Options
-h, --help Display this help message
-c, --config-file Name of the configuration file (default: ~/.orepan2-s3.json)
-o, --output Name of the output file
-p, --profile Your AWS profile if not provide in configuration
-n --profile-name Name of a profile inside the config file
-t, --template Name of a template that will be used as the index.html page
-d, --distribution Path to distribution tarball
-u, --upload Upload files after processing (for create-index, create-docs)
-U, --url Cloudfront URL
Configuration File
The configuration file for orepan2-s3 is a JSON file that can contain multiple profiles (or none). Each profile represents a DarkPAN S3 repository. The format should look something like this:
{
"default" : "bedrock",
"tbc" : {
"AWS": {
"profile" : "prod",
"region" : "us-east-1",
"bucket" : "tbc-cpan-mirror",
"prefix" : "orepan2"
},
"CloudFront" : {
"DistributionId" : "E2ABCDEFGHIJK"
}
},
"bedrock" : {
"index" : {
"template" : "/path/to/template",
"files": {
"src" : "dest"
}
},
"AWS": {
"profile" : "prod",
"region" : "us-east-1",
"bucket" : "cpan.openbedrock.net",
"prefix" : "orepan2"
},
"CloudFront" : {
"DistributionId" : "E2JKLMNOPQRXYZ",
"InvalidationPaths" : [],
"url" : "https://cpan.openbedrock.net/orepan2"
}
}
}
Each profile can contain the keys described below. If you only have one profile you don't need place it in a 'default' section.
The value for the 'default' key can be the name of a profile or a hash of the profile.
- index
-
This section allows you to create custom template for the DarkPAN home page.
- template
-
The name of a template file that will be parsed and uploaded as /index.html. If you do not provide a template file a default template is used. The default template is a Template::Toolkit style template. To see the default template use the
dump-templatecommand to the orepan2-index script.orepan2-index dump-templateThe templating process is provided with these variables:
- utils
-
A blessed reference to an object with one method (
module_name) that returns a verison of the module name suitable for use as unique CSS id. - repo
-
A hash of key value pairs where the key is the name of a DarkPAN distribution and value is an array or arrays. Each array is of the form:
[0] => Perl module name [1] => Module version - localtime
-
The current time and date as a string.
- pod_links
-
A hash where the keys are distribution names and the values are links to the POD for a module.
- readme_links
-
A hash where the keys are distribution names and the values are links to a README for a module.
NOTE: Sometimes the README and the POD will contain the same information.
- files
-
A hash of source/destination pairs that specify additional files you want uploaded to your S3 bucket.
Example:
"files" { "/home/rlauer/git/some-project/foo.css" : "/css/foo.css", "/home/rlauer/git/some-project/foo.js" : "/javascript/foo.js" }
- AWS
-
- profile
-
The IAM profile that allows access to the S3 bucket and CloudFront.
- region
-
AWS region. Default: us-east-1
- bucket
-
S3 bucket name
- prefix
-
The prefix where the CPAN distribution files will be stored. Default: orepan2.
- CloudFront
-
NOTE: Your profile must have the ability to invalidate the CloudFront cache!
- DistributionId
-
CloudFront distribution id
- InvalidationPaths
-
OrePAN2::S3is designed to work with CloudFront + Amazon S3. CloudFront is a CDN and will read content from your S3 bucket when clients make HTTP requests. CloudFront will cache content to avoid costly reads to the S3 bucket. If you change some of the static assets (like the index page) you make want to invalidate the cache to see your new assets. You could wait until the cache is updated (the default time is 24 hours)...but why? The script will automatically invalidate the cache for you if you tell it what assets to invalidate when you add a new distribution.An array of additional paths to invalidate when adding new distributions.
Note: There is no additional charge for adding additional paths. Each invalidation batch is considered as one billing unit by AWS. However, keep in mind you get 1000 invalidation paths for free each month. Thereafter each path costs $0.005 per path.
- custom_sections
-
This section contains key/value pairs where the key is the name of a variable that will be exposed to your template and the values are a two element array that contains a regular expresssion and possible regexp flags. The script will use the regexp to filter your distributions and add them to a hash whose name is the key you provided.
The purpose of this section is to allow you to possibly organize your distributions under possible HTML headings.
Example:
"custom_sections" : { "plugins" : ["^BLM\-(?!Startup)", "xsm"], "app_plugins" : ["^BLM\-Startup", "xsm"], }...then in your template:
<h1>Application Plugin Index</h1> [% FOREACH distribution = app_plugins.sort %] <h2> <span class="collapse-section-icon">▼</span> [% distribution %] [% IF readme_links.$distribution %] <a title="README" class='doc-link' href="[% readme_links.$distribution %]"><span class="material-symbols-outlined">docs</span></a> [% END %] [% IF pod_links.$distribution %] <a title="pod" class='doc-link' href="[% pod_links.$distribution %]"><span class="material-symbols-outlined">docs</span></a> [% END %] </h2> <ul class="collapsable" id="[% utils.module_name(distribution) %]"> [% FOREACH module IN app_plugins.$distribution %] <li>[% module.0 %]</li> [% END %] </ul> [% END %] <hr>
