App::lcpan::Cmd::authors_by_mod_mention_count - List authors ranked by number of module mentions

VERSION

This document describes version 1.019 of App::lcpan::Cmd::authors_by_mod_mention_count (from Perl distribution App-lcpan), released on 2017-06-19.

FUNCTIONS

handle_cmd

Usage:

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

List authors ranked by number of module mentions.

This shows the list of most mentioned authors, that is, authors whose modules are linked/referred to the most in PODs.

By default, each source module/script that mentions a module from author is counted as one mention (--count-per content). Use --count-per dist to only count mentions by modules/scripts from the same dist as one mention (so an author only gets a maximum of 1 vote per dist). Use --count-per author to only count mentions by modules/scripts from the same author as one mention (so an author only gets a maximum of 1 vote per mentioning author).

By default, only mentions from other authors are included. Use --include-self-mentions to also include mentions from the same author.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • count_per => str (default: "content")

  • cpan => dirname

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

    Defaults to ~/cpan.

  • include_self_mentions => bool (default: 0)

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

    Filename of index.

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)
