Installation Instructions
The instructions are basically as per any Perl module.
INSTALLING AUTOMATICALLY
------------------------
The easiest way to install is via CPAN, CPANPLUS or cpanminus:
CPAN:
% perl -MCPAN -e shell [as root]
> install Test::CPAN::Meta::YAML
> quit
CPANPLUS:
% cpanp
> i Test::CPAN::Meta::YAML
> q
cpanminus:
% cpanm Test::CPAN::Meta::YAML
See your local documentation ('perldoc CPAN', 'perldoc CPANPLUS' or
'perldoc cpanm') for further instructions on setting up and configuring your
chosen installer.
OBTAINING THE MODULE
--------------------
The latest release version of Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML can be downloaded
from any CPAN site:
http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/B/BA/BARBIE/
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML/
Phrasebook is distributed as a gzipped tar archive file:
Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-<version>.tar.gz
where <version> represents the current version number, e.g. 0.17.
To install the module, unpack the distribution archive to
create an installation directory. Something like this:
tar zxf Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-0.17.tar.gz
or
gunzip Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-0.17.tar.gz
tar xf Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-0.17.tar
You can then 'cd' into the directory created,
cd Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-0.17
INSTALLING MANUALLY
-------------------
The 'make install' (done later) will install the modules and scripts on
your system. You may need administrator privileges to perform this task.
Alternately you can install the module to a local directory (see
ExtUtils::MakeMaker for full details), e.g.
% perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/me/
Don't forget to update your PERL5LIB environment variable if you do
this, or add a line to your script to tell Perl where to find the files,
e.g.
use lib qw( /home/me/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 );
If you're not after a custom location, just do:
% perl Makefile.PL
If you are lacking any of the prerequisite modules, running that
program will tell you. All prerequisites are available from CPAN.
When you have them all:
% make && make test
If there are any failures, it's best if you contact me. It may help
other people who have the same problem. I don't tend to read the Perl
newsgroups or PerlMonks, so it's no use posting there.
When you report your trouble, be sure to send me the following
information;
+ result of `perl -V'
+ output from 'make test' - ideally do 'make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 >& errs'
Send those to bug-Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML@rt.cpan.org and I'll get back to you as
soon as I'm able.
If it worked, then become root and type:
# make install
Congratulations. You've just installed Test::CPAN::Meta::YAML.
If you have a copy of cpantest installed, type:
% cpantest -g pass -nc -p `basename \`pwd\`` -auto
Or:
% cpantest -g pass -nc -p Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML-0.17 -auto
That will tell both me and other potential users that the module
built correctly on your machine.
Cheers,
Barbie.
