NAME

App::lcpan::Cmd::outdated - lcpan version of cpan-outdated

VERSION

This document describes version 0.050 of App::lcpan::Cmd::outdated (from Perl distribution App-lcpan-CmdBundle-ver), released on 2020-05-06.

DESCRIPTION

This module handles the lcpan subcommand outdated.

FUNCTIONS

handle_cmd

Usage:

handle_cmd(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

lcpan version of cpan-outdated.

Like cpan-outdated utility, this subcommand also checks the versions of installed modules and compares them against the database. If the installed version is older, will show the release files. The output can then be fed to cpanm, for example.

Thanks to the data already in SQLite format, it can be faster than cpan-outdated.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • cpan => dirname

    Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.

    Defaults to ~/cpan.

  • 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 of cpan. If index_name contains a path, e.g. ./index.db or /home/ujang/lcpan.db then the index will be located solely using the index_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)
