NAME

App::CPAN::MetaDB - Provide CPAN metadata for cpanminus clients

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

This is a Plack application that grabs CPAN metadata and serves it to cpanminus clients.

METHODS

new(%opts)

Creates a new object. The following arguments will be required:

  • mirror

    The CPAN mirror to fetch the metadata from. This should not be a CPAN::Mini mirror unless you explicitly fetching /modules/02packages.details.txt.gz in your .minicpanrc.

app

Returns a code reference - this is the Plack $app that is passed along.

fetch_packages

Fetches, parses and stores the package list from the defined CPAN Mirror. This is a memory consuming task - careful with its use in memory constrained environments.
