NAME
Debian::WNPP::Query - offline storage of Debian's work-needing package lists
SYNOPSIS
my $wnpp = Debian::WNPP::Query->new(
{ cache_dir => '/somewhere',
network_enabled => 0,
ttl => 3600 * 24,
bug_types => [qw( ITP RFP )]
}
);
my @bugs = $wnpp->bugs_for_package('ken-lee');DESCRIPTION
Debian::WNPP::Query provides a way to retrieve and cache the contents of Debian's "Work-needing and prospective packages" lists.
CONSTRUCTOR
new is the constructor. Initial field values are to be given as a hash reference.
If cache_file is given, it is read.
FIELDS
- cache_file path
-
The path to the file holding the offline cache of the WNPP lists. If not specified, no cache is read or written.
- ttl seconds
-
The time after which the on-disk cache is considered too old and WNPP pages are retrieved afresh. Ignored if cache_file is not defined. Defaults to 86400 (1 day).
- bug_types arrayref
-
Specified which bug types to retrieve. For example, if you are interested in ITP and RFP bugs, there is no point in downloading, parsing and storing ITA/RFA/O bugs. By default all types of bugs are processed.
METHODS
- bugs_for_package(package)
-
Returns a list of bugs matching the given package name. Normally the list would contain only one bug, but there are no guarantees.
