NAME

CPAN::Uploader - upload things to the CPAN

VERSION

version 0.003

WARNING

This is really, really not well tested or used yet.  Give it a few weeks, at
least.  -- rjbs, 2008-06-06

ORIGIN

This code is mostly derived from cpan-upload-http by Brad Fitzpatrick, which in turn was based on cpan-upload by Neil Bowers. I (rjbs) didn't want to have to use a system call to run either of those, so I refactored the code into this module.

METHODS

upload_file

CPAN::Uploader->upload_file($file);

$uploader->upload_file($file, \%arg);

Valid arguments are:

user     - (required) your CPAN / PAUSE id
password - (required) your CPAN / PAUSE password
subdir   - the directory (under your home directory) to upload to
debug    - if set to true, spew lots more debugging output

This method attempts to actually upload the named file to the CPAN. It will raise an exception on error.

new

my $uploader = CPAN::Uploader->new(\%arg);

This method returns a new uploader. You probably don't need to worry about this method.

Valid arguments are the same as those to upload_file.

log

$uploader->log($message);

This method logs the given message by printing it to the selected output handle.

debug

$uploader->debug($message);

This method logs the given message if the uploader is in debugging mode.
