NAME

lcpanm - cpanm wrapper (set mirror to local CPAN by default)

VERSION

This document describes version 1.074 of lcpanm (from Perl distribution App-lcpan), released on 2023-09-26.

SYNOPSIS

Use like you would use cpanm:

% lcpanm -n Some::Module ...
% cpan-outdated --mirror file:$HOME/cpan | lcpanm -n

DESCRIPTION

lcpanm is just a thin wrapper for cpanm. It executes cpanm, passing the arguments it receives to cpanm, but also adds --mirror $cpan and --mirror-only, where $cpan is path to the local CPAN mirror read from lcpan.conf.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
