CPAN::Reporter::HistorUser Contributed Perl DocumentCPAN::Reporter::History(3)NAME
CPAN::Reporter::History - Read or write a CPAN::Reporter history log
VERSION
version 1.2006
SYNOPSIS
use CPAN::Reporter::History 'have_tested';
@results = have_tested( dist => 'Dist-Name-1.23' );
DESCRIPTION
Interface for interacting with the CPAN::Reporter history file. Most
methods are private for use only within CPAN::Reporter itself.
However, a public function is provided to query the history file for
results.
USAGE
The following function is available. It is not exported by default.
"have_tested()"
# all reports for Foo-Bar-1.23
@results = have_tested( dist => 'Foo-Bar-1.23' );
# all NA reports
@results = have_tested( grade => 'NA' );
# all reports on the current Perl/platform
@results = have_tested();
Searches the CPAN::Reporter history file for records exactly matching
search criteria, given as pairs of field-names and desired values.
Ordinary search criteria include:
· "dist" -- the distribution tarball name without any filename
suffix; from a "CPAN::Distribution" object, this is provided by the
"base_id" method.
· "phase" -- phase the report was generated during: either 'PL',
'make' or 'test'
· "grade" -- CPAN Testers grade: 'PASS', 'FAIL', 'NA' or 'UNKNOWN';
Also may be 'DISCARD' for any failing reports not sent due to
missing prerequisites
Without additional criteria, a search will be limited to the current
version of Perl and the current architecture and OS version.
Additional criteria may be specified explicitly or, by specifying the
empty string, "q{}", will match that field for any record.
# all reports for Foo-Bar-1.23 on any version of perl
# on the current architecture and OS version
@results = have_tested( dist => 'Foo-Bar-1.23', perl => q{} );
These additional criteria include:
· "perl" -- perl version and possible patchlevel; this will be dotted
decimal (5.6.2) starting with version 5.6, or will be numeric style
as given by $] for older versions; if a patchlevel exists, it must
be specified similar to "5.11.0 patch 12345"
· "archname" -- platform architecture name as given by
$Config{archname}
· "osvers" -- operating system version as given by $Config{osvers}
The function returns an array of hashes representing each test result,
with all of the fields listed above.
