Revision history for Module-CPANTS-Analyse

1.02 2023-09-10
  - Treat use v5.36 as use_warnings
  - Skip some of the manifest test if symlink is not available
  - Improve prereq sorting
  - Improve pod detection
  - Improve script detection
  - Use Parse::Distname to get a little more information from a distribution name
  - Dedupe possible licences
  - Add Object::Pad as use strict equivalent (Wesley Schwengle)
  - Fix has_license_in_source_file for distributions that contain only a
    script under bin or scripts (Sven Kirmess)

1.01 2019-08-08
  - Fixed not to set an error message when extracted nicely
    (spotted by Martin Becker++)
  - Fixed to restore mtime of MANIFEST.SKIP if it is modified by
    #include_default
  - Improved primary module detection
  - Fixed to catch CPAN::Meta::YAML's warnings (of duplicate keys)
  - Improved test_prereqs_match to handle t::lib::Util, and ignore
    files that contain but don't end with .t
  - Fixed to store multiple licenses in META files

1.00 2019-02-03
  ** BACKWARD INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE **
  - Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::Uses now uses a different prereq scanner
    (Perl::PrereqScanner::NotQuiteLite).
  - Added new kwalitee metrics:
    no_maniskip_error, no_missing_files_in_provides, no_files_to_be_skipped
  - Delayed plugin loading

0.99 2019-01-15
  - requires Module::Find

0.98 2019-01-15
  ** BACKWARD INCOMPATIBLE (INTERNAL) CHANGE **
  - Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee now uses Module::Find to find
    Kwalitee modules (instead of Module::Pluggable that unconditonally
    spits a deprecation warning). You usually don't need to care
    but if you have your custom Kwalitee plugin loader (such as
    Module::CPANTS::SiteKwalitee), you need to change it.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.

  - Allow dash and dot in script name in the NAME section for
    non-pm, non-pod files

    build_prereq_matches_use

0.75 2007-10-29
  - added optional metric use_warnings
  - added directory xt as a potential location for test files

        "kwalitee_indicator", but adds much needed metadata.

  Barbie:
  - Module::CPANTS::Analyse assumes Unix paths after munging with
    File::Spec, thus breaking portability at every turn in a
    non-Unix-like environment… bad Thomas no biscuit!
    Refined META.yml metrics using Test::YAML::Meta and brought
    *current spec* up to date with version 1.3
    <http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-v1.3.html> :)

0.71 2007-04-23

  - resolved RT #25198 reported by bdfoy using his patch
    Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::FindModules: do not check META.yml for
    "provides" because META.yml might list semi-garbage (eg
    according to META.yml, Siesta provides Apache::Constants, which
    it does not.)
  - skip very large test-files and only check *.t files (not
    everything in t/) as suggested by CASIANO

    - switched from Getopt::Std to Getopt::Long
    - added "--no_capture" option for easier debugging
    - added "--verbose" options

    (and patched…) by HEMINGWAY. This should also solve
    RT #26535 reported by Martin Thurn
  - applied doc patch submitted by MSTEVENS as RT #26379

0.69 2006-11-04
  - split up "metayml_conforms_spec" to metayml_conforms_spec_1_0

0.68 2006-10-28
  - fixed bug in Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::FindModules reported by
    JDHEDDEN in RT #22081 (the module name of modules living in the
    top-level namespace (eg 'threads.pm') was not guessed correctly
    use META.yml "provides" (if it exists) instead of guessing
    module names in Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::FindModules

    suggested by CDOLAN in RT #21999

    text after Schwern (and Andreas Koenig) suggested
    that ExtUtils::MakeMaker now supports a "license" field

0.67 2006-09-13
  - cpants_lint.pl now handles reporting of optional metrics better.
  - added t/99_critic.t (Gábor Szabó)
  - some code cleanups as reported by Test::Perl::Critic (Gábor
    Szabó)
  - new metric: "has_license|Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::License";
  - Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::MetaYML (Gábor Szabó)
