NAME

       CPAN::Uploader - upload things to the CPAN

VERSION

       version 0.103006

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

       This method attempts to actually upload the named file to the CPAN.  It will raise an
       exception on error.

   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.
