DESCRIPTION

cpants_lint.pl checks the Kwalitee of CPAN distributions. More exact, it checks how a given tarball will be ratend on http://cpants.perl.org, without needing to upload it first.

cpants_lint.pl is also used by cpants.perl.org itself to check all dists on CPAN.

For more information on Kwalitee, and the whole of CPANTS, see http://cpants.perl.org and / or Module::CPANTS::Analyse.

OPTIONS

If neither --dump nor --yaml are used, a short text describing the Kwalitee of the distribution and hints on how to raise Kwalitee will be displayed. The format of this text can change anytime, so don't use it for any automated processing!

--help

Print a brief help message.

--man

Print manpage.

--verbose

Print some informative messages during testing of dists.

--no_capture

Turn off capturing of STDOUT and STDERR. Mostly usefull during debugging / development of new features.

If --no_capture is used, the value of cpants_error might be wrong.

--dump

Dump the result using Data::Dumper

--yaml

Dump the result as YAML.

--to_file

Output the result into a file instead of STDOUT.

The name of the file will be Foo-Dist.yaml (well, the extension depends on the dump format and can be .yaml, .dump or .txt)

--dir

Directory to dump files to. Defaults to the current working directory.
