NAME
Acme::CPANModules::LocalCPANIndex - Creating an index against local CPAN mirror
VERSION
This document describes version 0.001 of Acme::CPANModules::LocalCPANIndex (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModules-LocalCPANIndex), released on 2019-01-09.
DESCRIPTION
Creating an index against local CPAN mirror.
Since CPAN repository index is just a couple of text files (currently: list of authors in authors/01mailrc.txt.gz
and list of packages in modules/02packages.details.txt.gz
), to perform more complex or detailed queries additional index is often desired. The following modules accomplish that.
INCLUDED MODULES
-
In addition to downloading a CPAN mini mirror (using CPAN::Mini), this utility also indexes the package list and distribution metadata into a SQLite database so you can perform various queries, like list of modules/distributions/scripts of a CPAN author, or related modules using cross-mention information on modules' PODs, or various rankings.
-
This module parses the two CPAN text file indexes (
authors/01mailrc.txt.gz
andmodules/02packages.details.txt.gz
) and puts the information into a SQLite database. This lets you perform queries more quickly without reparsing the text files each time. But it does not parse distribution metadata so you don't get additional querying capability like dependencies.
