CPANPLUS::Internals::Report(3pm)      Perl Programmers Reference Guide      CPANPLUS::Internals::Report(3pm)



NAME
       CPANPLUS::Internals::Report

SYNOPSIS
         ### enable test reporting
         $cb->configure_object->set_conf( cpantest => 1 );

         ### set custom mx host, shouldn't normally be needed
         $cb->configure_object->set_conf( cpantest_mx => 'smtp.example.com' );

DESCRIPTION
       This module provides all the functionality to send test reports to "http://testers.cpan.org" using
       the "Test::Reporter" module.

       All methods will be called automatically if you have "CPANPLUS" configured to enable test reporting
       (see the "SYNOPSIS").

METHODS
       $bool = $cb->_have_query_report_modules

       This function checks if all the required modules are here for querying reports. It returns true and
       loads them if they are, or returns false otherwise.

       $bool = $cb->_have_send_report_modules

       This function checks if all the required modules are here for sending reports. It returns true and
       loads them if they are, or returns false otherwise.

       @list = $cb->_query_report( module => $modobj, [all_versions => BOOL, verbose => BOOL] )

       This function queries the CPAN testers database at http://testers.cpan.org/ for test results of
       specified module objects, module names or distributions.

       The optional argument "all_versions" controls whether all versions of a given distribution should be
       grabbed.  It defaults to false (fetching only reports for the current version).

       Returns the a list with the following data structures (for CPANPLUS version 0.042) on success, or
       false on failure:

                 {
                   'grade' => 'PASS',
                   'dist' => 'CPANPLUS-0.042',
                   'platform' => 'i686-pld-linux-thread-multi'
                 },
                 {
                   'grade' => 'PASS',
                   'dist' => 'CPANPLUS-0.042',
                   'platform' => 'i686-linux-thread-multi'
                 },
                 {
                   'grade' => 'FAIL',
                   'dist' => 'CPANPLUS-0.042',
                   'platform' => 'cygwin-multi-64int',
                   'details' => 'http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/99371'
                 },
                 {
                   'grade' => 'FAIL',
                   'dist' => 'CPANPLUS-0.042',
                   'platform' => 'i586-linux',
                   'details' => 'http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/99396'
                 },

       The status of the test can be one of the following: UNKNOWN, PASS, FAIL or NA (not applicable).

       $bool = $cb->_send_report( module => $modobj, buffer => $make_output, failed => BOOL, [save => BOOL,
       address => $email_to, dontcc => BOOL, verbose => BOOL, force => BOOL]);

       This function sends a testers report to "[email protected]" for a particular distribution.  It
       returns true on success, and false on failure.

       It takes the following options:

       module
           The module object of this particular distribution

       buffer
           The output buffer from the 'make/make test' process

       failed
           Boolean indicating if the 'make/make test' went wrong

       save
           Boolean indicating if the report should be saved locally instead of mailed out. If provided, this
           function will return the location the report was saved to, rather than a simple boolean 'TRUE'.

           Defaults to false.

       address
           The email address to mail the report for. You should never need to override this, but it might be
           useful for debugging purposes.

           Defaults to "[email protected]".

       dontcc
           Boolean indicating whether or not we should Cc: the author. If false, previous error reports are
           inspected and checked if the author should be mailed. If set to true, these tests are skipped and
           the author is definitely not Cc:'d.  You should probably not change this setting.

           Defaults to false.

       verbose
           Boolean indicating on whether or not to be verbose.

           Defaults to your configuration settings

       force
           Boolean indicating whether to force the sending, even if the max amount of reports for fails have
           already been reached, or if you may already have sent it before.

           Defaults to your configuration settings
