NAME
CPAN::Mini::Devel::Recent - Create CPAN::Mini mirror with recent
developer releases
VERSION
version 0.06
SYNOPSIS
$ minicpan -c CPAN::Mini::Devel::Recent
DESCRIPTION
CPAN::Mini::Devel::Recent is similar to CPAN::Mini::Devel, except it
uses the new, experimental "RECENT-*" index files on CPAN, which are
updated more frequently than the "indices/find-ls.gz" file that
CPAN::Mini::Devel uses.
Normally, CPAN::Mini creates a minimal CPAN mirror with the latest
version of each distribution, but excluding developer releases (those
with an underscore in the version number, like 0.10_01).
CPAN::Mini::Devel::Recent enhances CPAN::Mini to include the latest
developer and non-developer release in the mirror. For example, if
Foo-Bar-0.01, Foo-Bar-0.02, Foo-Bar-0.03_01 and Foo-Bar-0.03_02 are on
CPAN, only Foo-Bar-0.02 and Foo-Bar 0.03_02 will be mirrored. This is
particularly useful for creating a local mirror for smoke testing.
Unauthorized releases will also be included if they resemble a
distribution name already in the normal CPAN packages list.
There may be errors retrieving very new modules if they are indexed but
not yet synchronized on the mirror.
USAGE
See CPAN::Mini.
