NAME
cpan - easily interact with CPAN from the command line SYNOPSIS
# with arguments and no switches, installs specified modules cpan module_name [ module_name ... ] # with switches, installs modules with extra behavior cpan [-cfimt] module_name [ module_name ... ] # without arguments, starts CPAN.pm shell cpan # without arguments, but some switches cpan [-ahrvACDLO] DESCRIPTION
This script provides a command interface (not a shell) to CPAN. At the moment it uses CPAN.pm to do the work, but it is not a one-shot com- mand runner for CPAN.pm. Meta Options These options are mutually exclusive, and the script processes them in this order: [hvCAar]. Once the script finds one, it ignores the others, and then exits after it finishes the task. The script ignores any other command line options. -a Creates the CPAN.pm autobundle with CPAN::Shell->autobundle. -A module [ module ... ] Shows the primary maintainers for the specified modules -C module [ module ... ] Show the "Changes" files for the specified modules -D module [ module ... ] Show the module details. This prints one line for each out-of-date module (meaning, modules locally installed but have newer versions on CPAN). Each line has three columns: module name, local version, and CPAN version. -L author [ author ... ] List the modules by the specified authors. -h Prints a help message. -O Show the out-of-date modules. -r Recompiles dynamically loaded modules with CPAN::Shell->recompile. -v Print the script version and CPAN.pm version. Module options These options are mutually exclusive, and the script processes them in alphabetical order. It only processes the first one it finds. c Runs a `make clean` in the specified module's directories. f Forces the specified action, when it normally would have failed. i Installed the specified modules. m Makes the specified modules. t Runs a `make test` on the specified modules. Examples # print a help message cpan -h # print the version numbers cpan -v # create an autobundle cpan -a # recompile modules cpan -r # install modules ( sole -i is optional ) cpan -i Netscape::Booksmarks Business::ISBN # force install modules ( must use -i ) cpan -fi CGI::Minimal URI TO DO
BUGS
* none noted SEE ALSO
Most behaviour, including environment variables and configuration, comes directly from CPAN.pm. SOURCE AVAILABILITY
This source is part of a SourceForge project which always has the latest sources in CVS, as well as all of the previous releases. http://sourceforge.net/projects/brian-d-foy/ If, for some reason, I disappear from the world, one of the other members of the project can shepherd this module appropriately. CREDITS
Japheth Cleaver added the bits to allow a forced install (-f). Jim Brandt suggest and provided the initial implementation for the up-to-date and Changes features. Adam Kennedy pointed out that exit() causes problems on Windows where this script ends up with a .bat extension AUTHOR
