NAME

Test::CPANfile - see if cpanfile lists every used modules

SYNOPSIS

# By default, this module tests if cpanfile has all the used modules.
use Test::CPANfile;
use Test::More;

cpanfile_has_all_used_modules();
done_testing;

# You can use an optional CPAN package index to see if
# a sibling of a used-but-not-listed-in-cpanfile module
# is listed.
use Test::CPANfile;
use Test::More;
use CPAN::Common::Index::Mirror;

my $index = CPAN::Common::Index::Mirror->new;

cpanfile_has_all_used_modules(
    parser => [qw/:installed/],
    index  => $index,
);
done_testing;

# You can ignore specific files
use Test::CPANfile;
use Test::More;

# ignore prereqs in lib/Foo/Bar/Win32.pm, lib/Foo/Bar/Mac.pm etc
cpanfile_has_all_used_modules(
    ignore => [qw!lib/Foo/Bar/!],
);
done_testing;

# Or you can scan extra files
use Test::CPANfile;
use Test::More;

cpanfile_has_all_used_modules(
    lib => [glob 'extlib/*/lib'],
);
done_testing;

DESCRIPTION

This module tests if cpanfile lists every used modules or not.

It's ok if you list a module that is evaled in the code, or a module that does not appear in the code, as requires, but it complains if a used module is listed as recommends or suggests.

FUNCTION

cpanfile_has_all_used_modules()

You can pass an optional hash, which is passed to Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite::App's constructor to change its behavior. Notable options are:

exclude_core, perl_version

Test::CPANfile usually ignores prerequisites that are bundled in the Perl core (of 5.008001 by default; you can change this with perl_version option). If you do not want this, explicitly set exclude_core option to false.

allow_test_pms

Test::CPANfile usually ignores .pm files under t/ directory if modules in those .pm files are not used in .t files. With this option, Test::CPANfile looks for those .pm files under t/, regardless they are used in .t files or not. This is useful if you are using a test module that automatically loads modules under t/. If Test::Class family is used under t/, this option is implicitly set.

ignore

Set a list of paths Test::CPANfile should ignore. This is useful when your distribution has a set of OS-specific modules, for example.

ignore_re

You can also specify a regexp instead of a list of paths. If this is set, ignore options are ignored.

libs

If your distribution has an uncommon directory layout for some reasons, you can add extra directories to scan. This also might help when you have private modules that are not uploaded on the CPAN. Put them under extlib/ for example, and add the directory to libs, then Test::CPANfile also looks under the directory, and excludes modules found there as a part of the distribution, at the cost of extra dependencies for those private modules.

recommends, suggests, develop

Set these to test more extensively.

CPAN::Common::Index support

If you pass an optional CPAN::Common::Index instance (as the second example above), it is used to find a distribution that contains a used module. The test for the module passes if one of the modules that the distribution contains is listed in the cpanfile, even when the used module itself is not listed.
