SYNOPSIS

10                               type    => 'package',
11                               allow   => [qr/DBI/],

14           my $aref = $cpan->_search_author_tree(
15                               type    => 'cpanid',

DESCRIPTION

24       The functions in this module are designed to find module(objects) based
25       on certain criteria and return them.
26

METHODS

28       _search_module_tree( type => TYPE, allow => \@regexex, [data => \@pre‐
29       vious_results ] )
30
31       Searches the moduletree for module objects matching the criteria you
32       specify. Returns an array ref of module objects on success, and false
33       on failure.
34
35       It takes the following arguments:
36
37       type
38           This can be any of the accessors for the "CPANPLUS::Module"
39           objects.  This is a required argument.
40
41       allow
42           A set of rules, or more precisely, a list of regexes (via "qr//" or
43           plain strings), that the "type" must adhere too. You can specify as
44           many as you like, and it will be treated as an "OR" search.  For an
45           "AND" search, see the "data" argument.
46
47           This is a required argument.
48
49       data
50           An arrayref of previous search results. This is the way to do an
51           "AND" search -- "_search_module_tree" will only search the module
52           objects specified in "data" if provided, rather than the moduletree
53           itself.
54
55       _search_author_tree( type => TYPE, allow => \@regexex, [data => \@pre‐
56       vious_results ] )
57
58       Searches the authortree for author objects matching the criteria you
59       specify. Returns an array ref of author objects on success, and false
60       on failure.
61
62       It takes the following arguments:
63
64       type
65           This can be any of the accessors for the "CPANPLUS::Module::Author"
66           objects. This is a required argument.
67
68       allow
69           A set of rules, or more precisely, a list of regexes (via "qr//" or
70           plain strings), that the "type" must adhere too. You can specify as
71           many as you like, and it will be treated as an "OR" search.  For an
72           "AND" search, see the "data" argument.
73
74           This is a required argument.
75
76       data
77           An arrayref of previous search results. This is the way to do an
78           "and" search -- "_search_author_tree" will only search the author
79           objects specified in "data" if provided, rather than the authortree
80           itself.
81
82       _all_installed()
83
84       This function returns an array ref of module objects of modules that
85       are installed on this system.
