VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of App::lcpan::Cmd::backpan_author (from Perl distribution App-lcpan-CmdBundle-backpan), released on 2018-09-13.

DESCRIPTION

This module handles the lcpan subcommand backpan-author.

FUNCTIONS

handle_cmd

Usage:

handle_cmd(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Open author page on BackPAN.

Given author with CPAN ID CPANID, this will open Chttp://BACKPAN_HOST/authors/id/C/CP/CPANID. CPANID will first be checked for existence in local index database.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • authors* => array[str]

  • cpan => dirname

    Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.

    Defaults to ~/cpan.

  • index_name => filename (default: "index.db")

    Filename of index.

    If index_name is a filename without any path, e.g. index.db then index will be located in the top-level of cpan. If index_name contains a path, e.g. ./index.db or /home/ujang/lcpan.db then the index will be located solely using the index_name.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
