NAME

MetaCPAN::API::Distribution - Distribution information for MetaCPAN::API

VERSION

version 0.51

DESCRIPTION

This role provides MetaCPAN::API with fetching information about distributions, returning information about the distribution which is not specific to a version (like RT bug counts).

        search => {
            filter => { exists => { field => 'bugs.source' } },
            fields => ['name', 'bugs.source'],
            size   => 5,
        },
    );
