App::ListPerlReleases - List Perl releases
This document describes version 0.004 of App::ListPerlReleases (from Perl distribution App-ListPerlReleases), released on 2021-01-01.
See the included script list-perl-releases.
This distribution offers list-perl-releases, a CLI front-end for CPAN::Perl::Releases.
Usage:
list_perl_releases(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]
List of Perl releases.
This utility uses CPAN::Perl::Releases's perl_tarballs() to list releases of Perl interpreters. For each release, it provides information such as version number and location of tarballs in releaser author's directory on CPAN.
perl_tarballs()
Update the CPAN::Perl::Releases module to get the latest list of releases.
This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

By default, only the key (ID) field is returned per result entry.
exclude_fields => array[str]
Select fields to return.
fields => array[str]
query => str
Search.
random => bool (default: 0)
Return records in random order.
result_limit => int
Only return a certain number of records.
result_start => int (default: 1)
Only return starting from the n'th record.
sort => array[str]
Order records according to certain field(s).
A list of field names separated by comma. Each field can be prefixed with '-' to specify descending order instead of the default ascending.
tarball => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field equals specified value.
tarball.contains => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field contains specified text.
tarball.in => array[str]
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is in the specified values.
tarball.is => str
tarball.isnt => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field does not equal specified value.
tarball.max => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is less than or equal to specified value.
tarball.min => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is greater than or equal to specified value.
tarball.not_contains => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field does not contain specified text.
tarball.not_in => array[str]
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is not in the specified values.
tarball.xmax => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is less than specified value.
tarball.xmin => str
Only return records where the 'tarball' field is greater than specified value.
version => str
Only return records where the 'version' field equals specified value.
version.contains => str
Only return records where the 'version' field contains specified text.
version.in => array[str]
Only return records where the 'version' field is in the specified values.
version.is => str
version.isnt => str
Only return records where the 'version' field does not equal specified value.
version.max => str
Only return records where the 'version' field is less than or equal to specified value.
version.min => str
Only return records where the 'version' field is greater than or equal to specified value.
version.not_contains => str
Only return records where the 'version' field does not contain specified text.
version.not_in => array[str]
Only return records where the 'version' field is not in the specified values.
version.xmax => str
Only return records where the 'version' field is less than specified value.
version.xmin => str
Only return records where the 'version' field is greater than specified value.
with_field_names => bool
Return field names in each record (as hash/associative array).
When enabled, function will return each record as hash/associative array (field name => value pairs). Otherwise, function will return each record as list/array (field value, field value, ...).
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.
Return value: (any)

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
