CPAN::Mini::App(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to CPAN::Mini::App(3) — a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, no cap. This module is literally the guts of the minicpan command — that's the whole name-and-purpose situation. 🫶

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.111017 — yes, that exact number, periodt. Don't round it, don't vibe-edit it. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

Here's the group-chat screenshot of how you use it:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use CPAN::Mini::App;
CPAN::Mini::App->run;

🎀 PERL VERSION 🎀

Compatibility vibe check, highkey: this library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work on any version of perl released in the last five years. 🌈

It may work on older versions of perl, but no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. That's the caveat, bestie — don't come for the minimum-version tea. 🍓

✨ METHODS ✨

🏃 run

This method is called by minicpan to do all the work. Don't rely on what it does just yet.

⚠️ Lowkey important: "don't rely on what it does just yet" means exactly that — no promises about the behavior details yet, okay? 💀
