NAME

       CPAN::Uploader - upload things to the CPAN

VERSION

       version 0.103016

PERL VERSION

       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.

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, 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.

METHODS

   upload_file
         CPAN::Uploader->upload_file($file, \%arg);

         $uploader->upload_file($file);

       Valid arguments are:

         user        - (required) your CPAN / PAUSE id
         password    - (required) your CPAN / PAUSE password
         subdir      - the directory (under your home directory) to upload to
         http_proxy  - uri of the http proxy to use
         upload_uri  - uri of the upload handler; usually the default (PAUSE) is right
         debug       - if set to true, spew lots more debugging output
         retries     - number of retries to perform on upload failure (5xx response)
         retry_delay - number of seconds to wait between retries

       This method attempts to actually upload the named file to the CPAN.  It will raise an
       exception on error. c<upload_uri> can also be set through the ENV variable
       c<CPAN_UPLOADER_UPLOAD_URI>.

   new
         my $uploader = CPAN::Uploader->new(\%arg);

       This method returns a new uploader.  You probably don't need to worry about this method.

       Valid arguments are the same as those to "upload_file".

   read_config_file
         my $config = CPAN::Uploader->read_config_file( $filename );

       This reads the config file and returns a hashref of its contents that can be used as
       configuration for CPAN::Uploader.

       If no filename is given, it looks for .pause in the user's home directory (from the env
       var "HOME", or the current directory if "HOME" isn't set).

       See "CONFIGURATION" in cpan-upload for the config format.

   log
         $uploader->log($message);

       This method logs the given string.  The default behavior is to print it to the screen.
       The message should not end in a newline, as one will be added as needed.

   log_debug
       This method behaves like "log", but only logs the message if the CPAN::Uploader is in
       debug mode.

ORIGIN

       This code is mostly derived from "cpan-upload-http" by Brad Fitzpatrick, which in turn was
       based on "cpan-upload" by Neil Bowers.  I (rjbs) didn't want to have to use a "system"
       call to run either of those, so I refactored the code into this module.
