( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

choroba has (or been party to helping) put this together. Check it out and see if it works for you.

As far as the templates, yes, put them in a templates directory. If you need them installed as part of your *distribution* (that's what we call a CPAN package), personally, I'd use the Makefile (or Build file) to drop them into the appropriate location.

Head on over to MetaCPAN and take a look at the structure of some of the distributions. You'll see structure, test layout etc. Reviewing ones that the Testers link states is passing most (if not all) the tests is a good way to understand a properly structured and designed dist. I'd recommend to look at one of mine, but that'd be biased. Data::Compare is one that may help, that has a decent structure for a newb to CPAN to look at. It does not have extra directories (such as templates), but I think it'll help you get you on your way.

I'll let the other CPAN Monks speak up now.

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.
