a fast CPAN module installer
Synopsis
# install modules into local/ > cpm install Module1 Module2 ... # install modules with verbose messages > cpm install -v Module # from cpmfile/cpanfile (with cpanfile.snapshot if any) > cpm install # from metafile (META.json or MYMETA.json) > perl Makefile.PL && cpm install --metafile MYMETA.json # install module into current @INC instead of local/ > cpm install -g Module # read modules from STDIN by specifying "-" as an argument > echo Module1 Module2 | cpm install - # prefer TRIAL release > cpm install --dev Moose # install modules as if version of your perl is 5.8.5 # so that modules which are not core in 5.8.5 will be installed > cpm install --target-perl 5.8.5 # resolve distribution names from DARKPAN/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz # and fetch distibutions from DARKPAN/authors/id/... > cpm install --resolver 02packages,http://example.com/darkpan Your::Module > cpm install --resolver 02packages,file:///path/to/darkpan Your::Module # specify types/phases in cpmfile/cpanfile/metafile by "--with-*" and "--without-*" options > cpm install --with-recommends --without-test
