OpenInteract2::Manage::Package::CreateCPAN 1.99_06

OpenInteract2::Manage::Package::CreateCPAN is a Perl module to create a CPAN distribution from a package.

SYNOPSIS

# From command-line:

$ oi2_manage create_cpan

# Programmatically:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use OpenInteract2::Manage;

my $website_dir = '/home/httpd/mysite';
my %PARAMS = ( package_dir = '/path/to/my/package' );
my $task = OpenInteract2::Manage->new(
'create_cpan', %PARAMS );
my @status = $task->execute;
foreach my $s ( @status ) {
my $ok_label = ( $s->{is_ok} eq 'yes' )
? 'OK' : 'NOT OK';
print "Status? $ok_labeln",
"$s->{message}n";
}

This task creates a CPAN distribution from your package contents and metadata. You should be able to send the generated distribution to anyone else for them to run the standard install:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

For installing directly to a webserver you can do:

perl Makefile.PL WEBSITE_DIR=/path/to/mysite
make
make test
make install

And the files will be copied to the right place.
