NAME

App::lcpan::Cmd::similar_authors_from_related_mods - List authors similar to the specified one, by looking at how related their modules are

VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of App::lcpan::Cmd::similar_authors_from_related_mods (from Perl distribution App-lcpan-CmdBundle-similar_authors), released on 2019-11-21.

DESCRIPTION

This module handles the lcpan subcommand similar-authors-from-related-mods.

FUNCTIONS

handle_cmd

Usage:

handle_cmd(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

List authors similar to the specified one, by looking at how related their modules are.

There are several ways one can regard an author as similar to another. This subcommand offers one such way: by looking at how much their modules are related to one another. Related modules are defined as modules that tend to be mentioned together in POD documentation.

Experimental.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • author* => str

  • cpan => dirname

    Location of your local CPAN mirror, e.g. /path/to/cpan.

    Defaults to ~/cpan.

  • index_name => filename (default: "index.db")

    Filename of index.

    If index_name is a filename without any path, e.g. index.db then index will be located in the top-level of cpan. If index_name contains a path, e.g. ./index.db or /home/ujang/lcpan.db then the index will be located solely using the index_name.

  • use_bootstrap => bool (default: 1)

    Whether to use bootstrap database from App-lcpan-Bootstrap.

    If you are indexing your private CPAN-like repository, you want to turn this off.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
