1 | =head1 NAME |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | CPAN::API::HOWTO - a recipe book for programming with CPAN.pm | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | =head1 RECIPES | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | All of these recipes assume that you have put "use CPAN" at the top of | |
| 8 | your program. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | =head2 What distribution contains a particular module? | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | my $distribution = CPAN::Shell->expand( | |
| 13 | "Module", "Data::UUID" | |
| 14 | )->distribution()->pretty_id(); | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | This returns a string of the form "AUTHORID/TARBALL". If you want the | |
| 17 | full path and filename to this distribution on a CPAN mirror, then it is | |
| 18 | C<.../authors/id/A/AU/AUTHORID/TARBALL>. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | =head2 What modules does a particular distribution contain? | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | CPAN::Index->reload(); | |
| 23 | my @modules = CPAN::Shell->expand( | |
| 24 | "Distribution", "JHI/Graph-0.83.tar.gz" | |
| 25 | )->containsmods(); | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | You may also refer to a distribution in the form A/AU/AUTHORID/TARBALL. | |
