.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\&  use CPAN::Perl::Releases qw[perl_tarballs];
\&
\&  my $perl = \*(Aq5.14.0\*(Aq;

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
CPAN::Perl::Releases is a module that contains the mappings of all \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR releases that have been uploaded to CPAN to the
\&\f(CW\*(C`authors/id/\*(C'\fR path that the tarballs reside in.
.PP
This is static data, but newer versions of this module will be made available as new releases of \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR are uploaded to CPAN.
.SH FUNCTIONS
.IX Header "FUNCTIONS"
.ie n .IP """perl_tarballs""" 4
.el .IP \f(CWperl_tarballs\fR 4
.IX Item "perl_tarballs"
Takes one parameter, a \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR version to search for. Returns an hashref on success or \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR otherwise.
.Sp
The returned hashref will have a key/value for each type of tarball. A key of \f(CW\*(C`tar.gz\*(C'\fR indicates the location
of a gzipped tar file and \f(CW\*(C`tar.bz2\*(C'\fR of a bzip2'd tar file. The values will be the relative path under \f(CW\*(C`authors/id/\*(C'\fR
on CPAN where the indicated tarball will be located.
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&  perl_tarballs( \*(Aq5.14.0\*(Aq );
\&
\&  Returns a hashref like:
\&
\&  {
\&    "tar.bz2" => "J/JE/JESSE/perl\-5.14.0.tar.bz2",
\&    "tar.gz" => "J/JE/JESSE/perl\-5.14.0.tar.gz"
\&  }
.Ve
.Sp
Not all \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR releases had \f(CW\*(C`tar.bz2\*(C'\fR, but only a \f(CW\*(C`tar.gz\*(C'\fR.
.Sp
Perl tarballs may also be compressed using \f(CW\*(C`xz\*(C'\fR and therefore have a \f(CW\*(C`tar.xz\*(C'\fR entry.
.ie n .IP """perl_versions""" 4
.el .IP \f(CWperl_versions\fR 4
.IX Item "perl_versions"
Returns the list of all the perl versions supported by the module in ascending order. \f(CW\*(C`TRIAL\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`RC\*(C'\fR will be lower
than an actual release.
.ie n .IP """perl_pumpkins""" 4
.el .IP \f(CWperl_pumpkins\fR 4
.IX Item "perl_pumpkins"
Returns a sorted list of all PAUSE IDs of Perl pumpkins.
