NAME

6       cpaninject - Inject a distribution for installation via the CPAN shell
7

SYNOPSIS

9         # Add the distribution
10         cpaninject myperlmodule.tar.gz
11
12         # And then install it from the cpan shell
13         cpan> install LOCAL/myperlmodule.tar.gz
14

DESCRIPTION

16       cpaninject is a small front-end application for the CPAN::Inject
17       module.
18
19       It takes any arbitrary Perl distribution tarball (open source or
20       otherwise) and injects it into the local CPAN file cache, smoothing
21       some metadata files to make it look as if it came from CPAN.
22
23       It makes use the officially blessed "Reserved Local CPAN Author" id
24       "LOCAL" as the author the distributions are added under.
25
26       To use the program, just run cpaninject mytarball.tar.gz to add it,
27       then the CPAN shell to install it (with full automatic recursive
28       dependency installation).
29
30       The key here being the recursive dependency installation, which you are
31       now able to do even for installing non-CPAN modules.
32
33       This simplifies the installation process a little, and makes things
34       easier on someone that just wants to install a single commercial or
35       non-CPAN Perl module that might have a dozen or more CPAN dependencies.
