VERSION
This document describes version 1.064 of App::lcpan (from Perl distribution App-lcpan), released on 2021-04-21.
SYNOPSIS
See lcpan script.
FUNCTIONS
authors
Usage:
authors(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]
List authors.
Examples:
List all authors:
authors();
Find CPAN IDs which start with something:
authors( query => ["MICHAEL%"]); # -> ["MICHAEL", "MICHAELW", undef, {}]
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
added_or_updated_since => date
Include only records that are added/updated since a certain date.
added_or_updated_since_last_index_update => true
Include only records that are added/updated since the last index update.
added_or_updated_since_last_n_index_updates => posint
Include only records that are added/updated since the last N index updates.
cpan => dirname
Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.
Defaults to
~/cpan
.detail => bool
index_name => filename (default: "index.db")
Filename of index.
If
index_name
is a filename without any path, e.g.index.db
then index will be located in the top-level ofcpan
. Ifindex_name
contains a path, e.g../index.db
or/home/ujang/lcpan.db
then the index will be located solely using theindex_name
.or => bool
When there are more than one query, perform OR instead of AND logic.
query => array[str]
Search query.
query_type => str (default: "any")
random => true
Random sort.
result_limit => uint
Only return a certain number of records.
result_start => posint (default: 1)
Only return starting from the n'th record.
sort => array[str] (default: ["id"])
Sort the result.
use_bootstrap => bool (default: 1)
Whether to use bootstrap database from App-lcpan-Bootstrap.
If you are indexing your private CPAN-like repository, you want to turn this off.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
Return value: (any)
By default will return an array of CPAN ID's. If you set detail
to true, will return array of records.
deps
Usage:
deps(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]
List dependencies of distributions.
Examples:
List what modules Module-List requires:
deps( dists => ["Module-List"]);
List modules Module-List requires (module name will be converted to distro name):
deps( dists => ["Module::List"]);
List non-core modules Module-List requires:
deps( dists => ["Module-List"], include_core => 0);
List dependencies of a specific distribution release:
deps( dists => ["Module-List\@0.004"]);
By default only runtime requires are displayed. To see prereqs for other phases (e.g. configure, or build, or ALL) or for other relationships (e.g. recommends, or ALL), use the --phase
and --rel
options.
Note that dependencies information are taken from META.json
or META.yml
files. Not all releases (especially older ones) contain them. lcpan (like MetaCPAN) does not extract information from Makefile.PL
or Build.PL
because that requires running (untrusted) code.
Also, some releases specify dynamic config, so there might actually be more dependencies.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
added_or_updated_since => date
Include only records that are added/updated since a certain date.
added_or_updated_since_last_index_update => true
Include only records that are added/updated since the last index update.
added_or_updated_since_last_n_index_updates => posint
Include only records that are added/updated since the last N index updates.

cpan => dirname
Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.
Defaults to
~/cpan
.dists* => array[perl::distname_with_optional_ver]
Distribution names (with optional version suffix, e.g. Foo-Bar@1.23).
dont_uniquify => bool
Allow showing multiple modules for different dists.
flatten => bool
Instead of showing tree-like information, flatten it.
When recursing, the default is to show the final result in a tree-like table, i.e. indented according to levels, e.g.:
% lcpan deps -R MyModule | module | author | version | |-------------------|---------|---------| | Foo | AUTHOR1 | 0.01 | | Bar | AUTHOR2 | 0.23 | | Baz | AUTHOR3 | 1.15 | | Qux | AUTHOR2 | 0 |
To be brief, if
Qux
happens to also depends onBar
, it will not be shown in the result. Thus we don't know the actualBar
version that is needed by the dependency tree ofMyModule
. For example, ifQux
happens to depends onBar
version 0.45 thenMyModule
indirectly requiresBar
0.45.To list all the direct and indirect dependencies on a single flat list, with versions already resolved to the largest version required, use the
flatten
option:% lcpan deps -R --flatten MyModule | module | author | version | |-------------------|---------|---------| | Foo | AUTHOR1 | 0.01 | | Bar | AUTHOR2 | 0.45 | | Baz | AUTHOR3 | 1.15 | | Qux | AUTHOR2 | 0 |

index_name => filename (default: "index.db")
Filename of index.
If
index_name
is a filename without any path, e.g.index.db
then index will be located in the top-level ofcpan
. Ifindex_name
contains a path, e.g../index.db
or/home/ujang/lcpan.db
then the index will be located solely using theindex_name
.level => int (default: 1)
Recurse for a number of levels (-1 means unlimited).

then index will be located in the top-level ofcpan
. Ifindex_name
contains a path, e.g../index.db
or/home/ujang/lcpan.db
then the index will be located solely using theindex_name
.use_bootstrap => bool (default: 1)
Whether to use bootstrap database from App-lcpan-Bootstrap.
If you are indexing your private CPAN-like repository, you want to turn this off.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
Return value: (any)
update
Usage:
update(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]
Create/update local CPAN mirror.
This subcommand first create/update the mirror files by downloading from a remote CPAN mirror, then update the index.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
cpan => dirname
Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.
Defaults to
~/cpan
.exclude_author => array[str]
Exclude files from certain author(s).
force_update_index => bool
Update the index even though there is no change in files.
include_author => array[str]
Only include files from certain author(s).
index_name => filename (default: "index.db")
Filename of index.
If
index_name
is a filename without any path, e.g.index.db
then index will be located in the top-level ofcpan
. Ifindex_name
contains a path, e.g../index.db
or/home/ujang/lcpan.db
then the index will be located solely using theindex_name
.max_file_size => int
If set, skip downloading files larger than this.
remote_url => str
Select CPAN mirror to download from.
retry_delay => int
Number of seconds to delay between retry attempt.
retry_max_attempts => int
Number of retry attempts on failed HTTP request.
skip_file_indexing_pass_1 => bool
skip_file_indexing_pass_2 => bool
skip_file_indexing_pass_3 => bool
skip_index_file_patterns => array[re]
Skip one or more file patterns from being indexed.
skip_index_files => array[str]
Skip one or more files from being indexed.
skip_sub_indexing => bool (default: 1)
Since sub indexing is still experimental, it is not enabled by default. To enable it, pass the
--no-skip-sub-indexing
option.skip_sub_indexing_file_patterns => array[re]
Skip one or more file patterns from being parsed for subs.
skip_sub_indexing_files => array[str]
Skip one or more files from being parsed for subs.
update_files => bool (default: 1)
Update the files.
update_index => bool (default: 1)
Update the index.
use_bootstrap => bool (default: 1)

HISTORY
This application began as CPAN::SQLite::CPANMeta, an extension of CPAN::SQLite. CPAN::SQLite
parses 02packages.details.txt.gz
and 01mailrc.txt.gz
and puts the parse result into a SQLite database. CPAN::SQLite::CPANMeta
parses the META.json
/META.yml
files in individual release files and adds it to the SQLite database.
In order to simplify things for the users (one-step indexing) and get more freedom in database schema, lcpan
skips using CPAN::SQLite
and creates its own SQLite database. It also parses 02packages.details.txt.gz
but does not parse distribution names from it but instead uses META.json
and META.yml
files extracted from the release files. If no META.*
files exist, then it will use the module name.
