SCAN-PERL-PREREQS-NQLITE(1)

NAME
scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite

SYNOPSIS
  scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite [DIRS|FILES]

DESCRIPTION
"scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" traverses several files and subdirectories in the current directory with File::Find to collect all ".pl", ".PL", ".pm", ".t", ".psgi" files (as well as all the files in "scripts?" and "bin" directories), and prints a single combined list of prerequisites, which should be suitable for piping to "cpanm" or similar tools.

You can also pass files and/or directories to limit files to scan. In this case, however, "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" may fail to exclude modules that should belong to the same distribution.

OPTIONS

version
    Show the version.

help
    Show this help.

json
    Print prerequisites as a JSON if JSON::PP is installed.

cpanfile, save_cpanfile
    Print prerequisites as "cpanfile" if Module::CPANfile is installed. If "safe-cpanfile" is set, create or update "cpanfile".

suggests
    Print suggestions ("use"d modules in "eval") as well.

develop
    Print requirements/suggestions for developers ("use"d modules in "xt" and "author" directories) as well.

perl_minimum_version
    May modify required perl version if new language features are used without declaring the required perl version explicitly.

exclude_core
    Ignore prerequisites that are bundled with Perl (of 5.008001 by default). This requires Module::CoreList version 2.99 or above.

perl_version
    Ignore prerequisites that are bundled with Perl of a specific version. This implies "exclude-core" as well.

allow_test_pms
    Print requirements/suggestions in .pm files that are placed under t/ directory but are not directly used from .t files, too. If Test::Class family is used under t/, this option is implicitly set.

base_dir
    Set the base directory from where "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" starts traversing files and directories.

ignore
    Set a list of paths "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" should ignore. This is useful when your distribution has a set of OS-specific modules, for example.

ignore_re
    You can also specify a regexp instead of a list of paths. If this is set, "ignore" options are ignored.

optional
    Set a list of paths "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" should ignore. This is useful when your distribution has a set of OS-specific modules, for example.

optional_re
    You can also specify a regexp instead of a list of paths. If this is set, "optional" options are ignored.

private
    Set a list of modules "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" should consider private, that is, that are not uploaded to the CPAN. Contrary to the "ignore" option, which makes the scanner skip scanning the file, this option lets the scanner scan files, and excludes matched prerequisites afterwards.

private_re
    You can also specify a regexp instead of a list of modules. If this is set, "private" options are ignored.

scan_also
    Set a list of extra paths "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" should also scan. This is useful when your application/distribution uses an untraditional file layout.

feature
      scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite \
        --feature name:description:lib/My/Plugin/For/SpecificOS \
        --feature name:description:web/lib,web/bin

    Specify a feature name, a description, and matching paths.

use_index
    You can specify an index name of CPAN::Common::Index module (such as "Mirror" or "MetaDB") not to list all the modules of a required distribution.

blib
    If this is set, "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" will traverse subdirectories under "blib" to collect runtime requirements. It may return better results if some of the files are located in some uncommon places and/or some of them are listed in "no_index". However, files in "blib" may be older than the ones under "lib" etc, and you need to update them by running a make or a "Build" script before you run "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite".

parser
    Set a list of parsers (or parser tags) "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" uses. If this option is not set, the scanner uses ":installed" parsers by default.

inc Add a list of additional @INC path "scan-perl-prereqs-nqlite" looks for private parsers.

verbose
    Print verbose messages.
