NAME
CPANPLUS::Internals::Source
SYNOPSIS
### lazy load author/module trees ###
$cb->_author_tree;
$cb->_module_tree;
DESCRIPTION
CPANPLUS::Internals::Source controls the updating of source files and the parsing of them into usable module/author trees to be used by CPANPLUS
.
Functions exist to check if source files are still good to use
as well as update them, and then parse them.
The flow looks like this:
$cb->_author_tree || $cb->_module_tree
$cb->_check_trees
$cb->__check_uptodate
$cb->_update_source
$cb->__update_custom_module_sources
$cb->__update_custom_module_source
$cb->_build_trees
$cb->__create_author_tree
$cb->__retrieve_source
$cb->__create_module_tree
$cb->__retrieve_source
$cb->__create_dslip_tree
$cb->__retrieve_source
$cb->__create_custom_module_entries
$cb->_save_source
$cb->_dslip_defs
METHODS
$cb->_check_trees( [update_source => BOOL, path => PATH, verbose => BOOL] )
Retrieve source files and return a boolean indicating whether or not the source files are up to date.
Takes several arguments:
- update_source
-
A flag to force re-fetching of the source files, even if they are still up to date.
- path
-
The absolute path to the directory holding the source files.

A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
Will get information from the config file by default.
$cb->__check_uptodate( file => $file, name => $name, [update_source => BOOL, verbose => BOOL] )
__check_uptodate
checks if a given source file is still up-to-date and if not, or when update_source
is true, will re-fetch the source file.

-
Boolean to indicate whether to be verbose or not.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether the current files are up to date or not.
$cb->_update_source( name => $name, [path => $path, verbose => BOOL] )

Boolean to indicate whether to be verbose or not.
Returns a boolean to indicate success.
$cb->_build_trees( uptodate => BOOL, [use_stored => BOOL, path => $path, verbose => BOOL] )
This method rebuilds the author- and module-trees from source.
It takes the following arguments:

-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
- use_stored
-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not it is ok to use previously stored trees. Defaults to true.
Returns a boolean indicating success.
$cb->__retrieve_source(name => $name, [path => $path, uptodate => BOOL, verbose => BOOL])

-
The absolute path to the directory holding the source files.
- verbose
-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
Will get information from the config file by default.
Returns a tree on success, false on failure.
$cb->_save_source([verbose => BOOL, path => $path])
This method saves all the parsed trees in storabled format if Storable
is available.
It takes the following arguments:
- path
-
The absolute path to the directory holding the source files.
- verbose
-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
Will get information from the config file by default.
Returns true on success, false on failure.
$cb->__create_author_tree([path => $path, uptodate => BOOL, verbose => BOOL])
This method opens a source files and parses its contents into a searchable author-tree or restores a file-cached version of a previous parse, if the sources are uptodate and the file-cache exists.
It takes the following arguments:

-
A flag indicating whether the file-cache is uptodate or not.
- path
-
The absolute path to the directory holding the source files.
- verbose
-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
Will get information from the config file by default.
Returns a tree on success, false on failure.
$cb->_create_mod_tree([path => $path, uptodate => BOOL, verbose => BOOL])
This method opens a source files and parses its contents into a searchable module-tree or restores a file-cached version of a previous parse, if the sources are uptodate and the file-cache exists.
It takes the following arguments:
- uptodate
-
A flag indicating whether the file-cache is up-to-date or not.
- path
-
The absolute path to the directory holding the source files.
- verbose
-
A boolean flag indicating whether or not to be verbose.
Will get information from the config file by default.
Returns a tree on success, false on failure.
$cb->__create_dslip_tree([path => $path, uptodate => BOOL, verbose => BOOL])
This method opens a source files and parses its contents into a searchable dslip-tree or restores a file-cached version of a previous parse, if the sources are uptodate and the file-cache exists.
It takes the following arguments:
- uptodate
-
A flag indicating whether the file-cache is uptodate or not.

$cb->_dslip_defs ()
This function returns the definition structure (ARRAYREF) of the dslip tree.
$file = $cb->_add_custom_module_source( uri => URI, [verbose => BOOL] );
Adds a custom source index and updates it based on the provided URI.
Returns the full path to the index file on success or false on failure.
$file = $cb->_remove_custom_module_source( uri => URI, [verbose => BOOL] );
Removes a custom index file based on the URI provided.
Returns the full path to the index file on success or false on failure.
%files = $cb->__list_custom_module_sources
This method scans the 'custom-sources' directory in your base directory for additional sources to include in your module tree.
Returns a list of key value pairs as follows:
/full/path/to/source/file%3Fencoded => http://decoded/mirror/path
$bool = $cb->__update_custom_module_sources( [verbose => BOOL] );
Attempts to update all the index files to your custom module sources.
If the index is missing, and it's a file://
uri, it will generate a new local index for you.
Return true on success, false on failure.
$ok = $cb->__update_custom_module_source
Attempts to update all the index files to your custom module sources.
If the index is missing, and it's a file://
uri, it will generate a new local index for you.
Return true on success, false on failure.
$bool = $cb->__write_custom_module_index( path => /path/to/packages, [to => /path/to/index/file, verbose => BOOL] )
Scans the path
you provided for packages and writes an index with all the available packages to $path/packages.txt
. If you'd like the index to be written to a different file, provide the to
argument.
Returns true on success and false on failure.
$bool = $cb->__create_custom_module_entries( [verbose => BOOL] )
Creates entries in the module tree based upon the files as returned by __list_custom_module_sources
.
Returns true on success, false on failure.
