cpanfile-dump - Dump prerequisites from a cpanfile
Contents
Description
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".
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.
Name
cpanfile-dump - Dump prerequisites from a cpanfile
Notes
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.
Options
--configure, --build, --test, --runtime, --develop
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".
--requires, --recommends, --suggests, --conflicts
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".
Specifying "--conflicts" will turn off all other types (even if specified on the command line).
--with-feature, --with-all-features, --without-feature
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.
