DESCRIPTION

cpants_lint.pl checks the Kwalitee of a CPAN distribution. More exact, it checks how a given tarball will be rated on http://cpants.perl.org, without needing to upload it first.

For more information on Kwalitee, and the whole of CPANTS, see http://cpants.perl.org and / or Module::CPANTS::Analyse.

OPTIONS

--help

Print a brief help message.

--man

Print manpage.

--verbose

Print some informative messages while analysing a distribution.

--colour, --color

Like --verbose, but prettier. You need to install Term::ANSIColor (and Win32::Console::ANSI for Win32) to enable this option.

--dump

Dump the result using Data::Dumper (instead of displaying a report text).

--yaml

Dump the result as YAML.

--json

Dump the result as JSON.

--save

Output the result into a file instead of STDOUT.

The name of the file will be Foo-Dist.txt (well, the extension depends on the dump format and can be .dmp, .yml or .json)

--dir

Directory to dump a file to. Defaults to the current working directory.

--metrics_path

Search path for extra metrics modules
