DESCRIPTION

22       "CPANPLUS::Internals::Utils" holds a few convenience functions for
23       CPANPLUS libraries.
24

METHODS

26   $cb->_mkdir( dir => '/some/dir' )
27       "_mkdir" creates a full path to a directory.
28
29       Returns true on success, false on failure.
30
31   $cb->_chdir( dir => '/some/dir' )
32       "_chdir" changes directory to a dir.
33
34       Returns true on success, false on failure.
35
36   $cb->_rmdir( dir => '/some/dir' );
37       Removes a directory completely, even if it is non-empty.
38
39       Returns true on success, false on failure.
40
41   $cb->_perl_version ( perl => 'some/perl/binary' );
42       "_perl_version" returns the version of a certain perl binary.  It does
43       this by actually running a command.
44
45       Returns the perl version on success and false on failure.
46
47   $cb->_version_to_number( version => $version );
48       Returns a proper module version, or '0.0' if none was available.
49
50   $cb->_whoami
51       Returns the name of the subroutine you're currently in.
52
53   _get_file_contents( file => $file );
54       Returns the contents of a file
55
56   $cb->_move( from => $file|$dir, to => $target );
57       Moves a file or directory to the target.
58
59       Returns true on success, false on failure.
60
61   $cb->_copy( from => $file|$dir, to => $target );
62       Moves a file or directory to the target.
63
64       Returns true on success, false on failure.
65
66   $cb->_mode_plus_w( file => '/path/to/file' );
67       Sets the +w bit for the file.
68
69       Returns true on success, false on failure.
70
71   $uri = $cb->_host_to_uri( scheme => SCHEME, host => HOST, path => PATH );
72       Turns a CPANPLUS::Config style "host" entry into an URI string.
73
74       Returns the uri on success, and false on failure
75
76   $cb->_vcmp( VERSION, VERSION );
77       Normalizes the versions passed and does a '<=>' on them, returning the
78       result.
79
80   $cb->_home_dir
81       Returns the user's homedir, or "cwd" if it could not be found
82
83   $path = $cb->_safe_path( path => $path );
84       Returns a path that's safe to us on Win32 and VMS.
85
86       Only cleans up the path on Win32 if the path exists.
87
88       On VMS, it encodes dots to _ using "VMS::Filespec::vmsify"
89
90   ($pkg, $version, $ext) = $cb->_split_package_string( package =>
91       PACKAGE_STRING );
92       Splits the name of a CPAN package string up into its package, version
93       and extension parts.
94
95       For example, "Foo-Bar-1.2.tar.gz" would return the following parts:
96
97           Package:    Foo-Bar
98           Version:    1.2
99           Extension:  tar.gz
