NAME
cpan-dist-counts - display graph of different CPAN dists released by year for single user or all users
SYNOPSIS
cpan-dist-counts [--user NEILB] [--char =] [--width 40] [--year YYYY] [-monthly]
[--neo | -n] [--distprefix Moose]DESCRIPTION
cpan-dist-counts generates a text graph of the number of different CPAN distributions released each year, either across all users, or for a specific user. The most likely usage is to see your personal release history -- how many different distribution you released each year:
% cpan-dist-counts --user PJF

2015 ( 1) #If you don't specify a user, you'll get a graph of all distinct CPAN distributions each year. You can also change the character used when drawing the bars, and the maximum width used for the longest bar:
% cpan-dist-counts --char = --width 30
1995 ( 125)
1996 ( 267) =
1997 ( 472) =

2014 (7581) ==============================
2015 (7176) ============================
2016 (4363) =================If you use the --monthly switch, you'll get the counts broken down by month. You can also restrict the data to a particular year:
% cpan-dist-counts --year 2015 --monthly -width 40
