NAME
WWW::PAUSE::Simple - An API for PAUSE
VERSION
This document describes version 0.458 of WWW::PAUSE::Simple (from Perl distribution WWW-PAUSE-Simple), released on 2024-02-18.
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
This module provides several functions for performing common tasks on PAUSE. There is also a CLI script pause distributed separately in App::pause.
FUNCTIONS
delete_files
Usage:
delete_files(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]Delete files.
When a file is deleted, it is not immediately deleted but has scheduled_for_deletion status for 72 hours, then deleted. During that time, the file can be undeleted.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
This function supports dry-run operation.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
files* => array[str]
File names/wildcard patterns.
password => str
PAUSE password.
If unset, default value will be searched from
~/.pause. Encrypted.pauseis not yet supported.protect_files => array[str]
Protect some files/wildcard patterns from delete/cleanup.
retries => int (default: 5)
Number of retries when received 5xx HTTP error from server.
The retry uses an exponential backoff strategy of delaying 3, 6, 12, 24, ..., 3600, 3600, ... seconds.
username => str
PAUSE ID.
If unset, default value will be searched from
~/.pause. Encrypted.pauseis not yet supported.
Special arguments:
-dry_run => bool
Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.
Return value: (any)
delete_old_releases
Usage:
delete_old_releases(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]Delete older versions of distributions.
Currently does not look for releases in subdirectories.
By default does not include developer (trial) releases. To include that, use --include-dev.
To only cleanup developer releases, you can use --include-dev and --exclude-nondev.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.
This function supports dry-run operation.

1 means to only keep the newest version, 2 means to keep the newest and the second newest, and so on.

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -lIf you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
