NAME

Dist::Zilla::Plugin::CheckPrereqsIndexed - prevent a release if you have prereqs not found on CPAN

VERSION

version 0.001

OVERVIEW

Sometimes, AutoPrereqs is a little overzealous and finds a prereq that you wrote inline or have in your ./t directory. Although AutoPrereqs should grow more accurate over time, and avoid these mistakes, it's not perfect right now. CheckPrereqsIndexed will check every required package against the CPAN index to ensure that they're all real, installable packages.

If any are unknown, it will prompt the user to continue or abort.

At present, CheckPrereqsIndexed queries CPANMetaDB, but this behavior is likely to change or become pluggable in the future. In the meantime, this makes releasing while offline impossible... but it was anyway, right?
