NAME

App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods - List other modules related to module(s)

VERSION

This document describes version 1.068 of App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods (from Perl distribution App-lcpan), released on 2021-06-05.

FUNCTIONS

handle_cmd

Usage:

 handle_cmd(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]

List other modules related to module(s).

This subcommand lists other modules that might be related to the module(s) you specify. This is done by listing modules that tend be mentioned together in POD documentation.

The scoring/ranking still needs to be tuned.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • 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.

  • limit => int (default: 20)

    Maximum number of modules to return.

  • modules* => array[perl::modname]

  • skip_same_dist => bool

    Skip modules from the same distribution.

  • sort => array[str] (default: ["-score","-num_mentions"])

  • submodules => bool

    Whether to include submodules.

    If set to true, will only show related submodules, e.g. lcpan related-modules Foo::Bar will only show Foo::Bar::Baz, Foo::Bar::Quz, and so on.

    If set to false, will only show related modules that are not submodules, e.g. lcpan related-modules Foo::Bar will show Baz, Foo::Baz, but not Foo::Bar::Baz.

  • use_bootstrap => bool (default: 1)

    Whether to use bootstrap database from App-lcpan-Bootstrap.

    If you are indexing your private CPAN-like repository, you want to turn this off.

  • with_content_paths => bool

    Return the list of content paths where the module and a related module are mentioned together.

  • with_scores => bool

    Return score-related fields.

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)
