Thanks!

When it comes right down to it, there is really only one file that is usually easier to have a tool create for you: Makefile.PL

Once that is present (containing the proper commands for ExtUtils::MakeMaker) the process boils down to this:

perl Makefile.PL make manifest make disttest make dist make distclean

At that point you should have a tarball ready for upload to PAUSE.

What the various tools do (including Module::Cooker) is create a full skeleton structure that just happens to include Makefile.PL. Based on what you (and others) have said, I should add a means to only add any missing files such as Makefile.PL to an existing directory structure.

It helps to remember that the primary goal is to drain the swamp even when you are hip-deep in alligators.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
