NAME

       Menlo::Index::MetaDB - Search index via CPAN MetaDB

SYNOPSIS

         use CPAN::Common::Index::MetaDB;

         $index = CPAN::Common::Index::MetaDB->new;

         $index->search_packages({ package => "Moose" });

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements a CPAN::Common::Index that searches for packages against the same
       CPAN MetaDB API used by cpanminus.

       There is no support for advanced package queries or searching authors.  It just takes a
       package name and returns the corresponding version and distribution.
