NAMECPAN::Meta::Converter − Convert CPAN distribution metadata structures

VERSIONversion 2.150010

SYNOPSIS​ my $struct = decode_json_file('META.json'); ​ ​ my $cmc = CPAN::Meta::Converter−>new( $struct ); ​ ​ my $new_struct = $cmc−>convert( version => "2" );

DESCRIPTIONThis module converts CPAN Meta structures from one form to another. The primary use is to convert older structures to the most modern version of the specification, but other transformations may be implemented in the future as needed. (E.g. stripping all custom fields or stripping all optional fields.)

METHODS

new​ my $cmc = CPAN::Meta::Converter−>new( $struct ); The constructor should be passed a valid metadata structure but invalid structures are accepted. If no meta-spec version is provided, version 1.0 will be assumed. Optionally, you can provide a default_version argument after $struct: ​ my $cmc = CPAN::Meta::Converter−>new( $struct, default_version => "1.4" ); This is only needed when converting a metadata fragment that does not include a ​meta−spec field.

convert​ my $new_struct = $cmc−>convert( version => "2" ); Returns a new hash reference with the metadata converted to a different form. ​convert will die if any conversion/standardization still results in an invalid structure. Valid parameters include: • version \*(-- Indicates the desired specification version (e.g. \*(L"1.0\*(R", \*(L"1.1\*(R" ... \*(L"1.4\*(R", \*(L"2\*(R"). Defaults to the latest version of the CPAN Meta Spec. Conversion proceeds through each version in turn. For example, a version 1.2 structure might be converted to 1.3 then 1.4 then finally to version 2. The conversion process attempts to clean-up simple errors and standardize data. For example, if author is given as a scalar, it will converted to an array reference containing the item. (Converting a structure to its own version will also clean-up and standardize.) When data are cleaned and standardized, missing or invalid fields will be replaced with sensible defaults when possible. This may be lossy or imprecise. For example, some badly structured META.yml files on CPAN have prerequisite modules listed as both keys and values: ​ requires => { 'Foo::Bar' => 'Bam::Baz' } These would be split and each converted to a prerequisite with a minimum version of zero. When some mandatory fields are missing or invalid, the conversion will attempt to provide a sensible default or will fill them with a value of 'unknown'. For example a missing or unrecognized license field will result in a license field of 'unknown'. Fields that may get an 'unknown' include: • abstract • author • license

upgrade_fragment​ my $new_struct = $cmc−>upgrade_fragment; Returns a new hash reference with the metadata converted to the latest version of the CPAN Meta Spec. No validation is done on the result \*(-- you must validate after merging fragments into a complete metadata document. Available since version 2.141170.
