NAME

cpanq - A CLI interface to WWW::CPAN

SYNOPSIS

cpanq query Foo
cpanq query query=File::Temp mode=all

cpanq meta Foo
cpanq meta dist=WWW-CPAN version=0.003

DESCRIPTION

This script runs a simple interface to execute API methods of WWW::CPAN via the command line. Currently, this is a work in progress and offered more like an example code for WWW::CPAN.

The actual implementation code lives in the module App::WWW::CPAN.

The expected arguments for the script are like:

command single-arg
command key1=val1 key2=val2

where the supported commands by now are query and meta.

query Foo # translates to WWW::CPAN->query('Foo')
query query=File::Temp mode=all # WWW::CPAN->query({ query => 'File::Temp', mode => 'all' });

meta Foo # WWW::CPAN->fetch_distmeta('Foo');
meta dist=WWW-CPAN version=0.003 # WWW::CPAN->fetch_distmeta({ dist => 'WWW-CPAN', version => '0.003' })

The results are dumped with the help of Data::Dump::Streamer into STDOUT.
