cpanfile-dump - Dump prerequisites from a cpanfile
# Install typical required and recommended modules cpan `cpanfile-dump` # Skip configures phase cpan `cpanfile-dump --no-configure` # Also include develop phase and suggests type cpan `cpanfile-dump --develop --suggests` # Include a feature cpan `cpanfile-dump --with-feature=sqlite`
This script reads prereqs from a cpanfile and dumps a raw list of them to standard output. This is useful for piping these as input to another program that doesn't support reading cpanfile directly, i.e. cpan or cpanp.
cpan
cpanp
By default, it prints configure, build, test and runtime requirements and recommendations. Command line options can be used to modify the default choices.
This script is distributed with Module::CPANfile since version 1.0002.
Specify the phase to include/exclude. Defaults to include all but --develop but you can exclude some phases by specifying the options with --no- prefix, like --no-configure.
--develop
--no-
--no-configure
Specify the type to include/exclude. Defaults to include only --requires and --recommends but you can exclude some types by specifying the options with --no- prefix, like --no-recommends.
--requires
--recommends
--no-recommends
Specifying --conflicts will turn off all other types (even if specified on the command line).
--conflicts
cpanfile-dump --with-feature=sqlite cpanfile-dump --with-all-features --without-feature=yaml
Specify features to include in the dump. --with-feature and --without-feature may be used more than once.
--with-feature
--without-feature
Because cpanm supports reading cpanfile directly, instead of piping the output of this program, you're recommended to use cpanm --installdeps . to install modules from cpanfile.
cpanm
cpanm --installdeps .
