cpan2dist - The CPANPLUS distribution creator
This script will create distributions of CPAN
modules of the format
you specify, including its prerequisites. These packages can then be
installed using the corresponding package manager for the format.
Note, you can also do this interactively from the default shell,
CPANPLUS::Shell::Default
. See the CPANPLUS::Dist
documentation,
as well as the documentation of your format of choice for any format
specific documentation.
Some modules you'd rather not package. Some because they are part of core-perl and you dont want a new package. Some because they won't build on your system. Some because your package manager of choice already packages them for you.
There may be a myriad of reasons. You can use the --ignore
and --ban
options for this, but we provide some built-in
lists that catch common cases. You can use these built-in lists
if you like, or supply your own if need be.
You can use this list of regexes to ignore modules matching to be listed as prerequisites of a package. Particularly useful if they are bundled with core-perl anyway and they have known issues building.
Toggle it by supplying the --default-ignorelist
option.
You can use this list of regexes to disable building of these modules altogether.
Toggle it by supplying the --default-banlist
option.
