.SH NAME
CPANPLUS::Dist \- base class for plugins
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 3
\&    my $dist = CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE\->new(
\&                                module  => $modobj,
\&                            );

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist\*(C'\fR is a base class for \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::MM\*(C'\fR
and \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::Build\*(C'\fR. Developers of other \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::*\*(C'\fR
plugins should look at \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::Base\*(C'\fR.
.SH ACCESSORS
.IX Header "ACCESSORS"
.IP \fBparent()\fR 4
.IX Item "parent()"
Returns the \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Module\*(C'\fR object that parented this object.
.IP \fBstatus()\fR 4
.IX Item "status()"
Returns the \f(CW\*(C`Object::Accessor\*(C'\fR object that keeps the status for
this module.
.SH "STATUS ACCESSORS"
.IX Header "STATUS ACCESSORS"
All accessors can be accessed as follows:
    \f(CW$deb\fR\->status\->ACCESSOR
.IP \fBcreated()\fR 4
.IX Item "created()"
Boolean indicating whether the dist was created successfully.
Explicitly set to \f(CW0\fR when failed, so a value of \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR may be
interpreted as \f(CW\*(C`not yet attempted\*(C'\fR.
.IP \fBinstalled()\fR 4
.IX Item "installed()"
Boolean indicating whether the dist was installed successfully.
Explicitly set to \f(CW0\fR when failed, so a value of \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR may be
interpreted as \f(CW\*(C`not yet attempted\*(C'\fR.
.IP \fBuninstalled()\fR 4
.IX Item "uninstalled()"
Boolean indicating whether the dist was uninstalled successfully.
Explicitly set to \f(CW0\fR when failed, so a value of \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR may be
interpreted as \f(CW\*(C`not yet attempted\*(C'\fR.
.IP \fBdist()\fR 4
.IX Item "dist()"
The location of the final distribution. This may be a file or
directory, depending on how your distribution plug in of choice
works. This will be set upon a successful create.
.ie n .SS "$dist = CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE\->new( module => MODOBJ );"
.el .SS "\f(CW$dist\fP = CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE\->new( module => MODOBJ );"
.IX Subsection "$dist = CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE->new( module => MODOBJ );"
Create a new \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE\*(C'\fR object based on the
provided \f(CW\*(C`MODOBJ\*(C'\fR.
.PP
*** DEPRECATED ***
The optional argument \f(CW\*(C`format\*(C'\fR is used to indicate what type of dist
you would like to create (like \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::MM\*(C'\fR or
\&\f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::Build\*(C'\fR and so on ).
.PP
\&\f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist\->new\*(C'\fR is exclusively meant as a method to be
inherited by \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::MM|Build\*(C'\fR.
.PP
Returns a \f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::YOUR_DIST_TYPE_HERE\*(C'\fR object on success
and false on failure.
.ie n .SS "@dists = CPANPLUS::Dist\->dist_types;"
.el .SS "\f(CW@dists\fP = CPANPLUS::Dist\->dist_types;"
.IX Subsection "@dists = CPANPLUS::Dist->dist_types;"
Returns a list of the CPANPLUS::Dist::* classes available
.ie n .SS "$bool = CPANPLUS::Dist\->rescan_dist_types;"
.el .SS "\f(CW$bool\fP = CPANPLUS::Dist\->rescan_dist_types;"
.IX Subsection "$bool = CPANPLUS::Dist->rescan_dist_types;"
Rescans \f(CW@INC\fR for available dist types. Useful if you've installed new
\&\f(CW\*(C`CPANPLUS::Dist::*\*(C'\fR classes and want to make them available to the
current process.
.ie n .SS "$bool = CPANPLUS::Dist\->has_dist_type( $type )"
.el .SS "\f(CW$bool\fP = CPANPLUS::Dist\->has_dist_type( \f(CW$type\fP )"
.IX Subsection "$bool = CPANPLUS::Dist->has_dist_type( $type )"
Returns true if distribution type \f(CW$type\fR is loaded/supported.
.ie n .SS "$bool = $dist\->prereq_satisfied( modobj => $modobj, version => $version_spec )"
.el .SS "\f(CW$bool\fP = \f(CW$dist\fP\->prereq_satisfied( modobj => \f(CW$modobj\fP, version => \f(CW$version_spec\fP )"
.IX Subsection "$bool = $dist->prereq_satisfied( modobj => $modobj, version => $version_spec )"
Returns true if this prereq is satisfied.  Returns false if it's not.
Also issues an error if it seems "unsatisfiable," i.e. if it can't be
found on CPAN or the latest CPAN version doesn't satisfy it.
.ie n .SS "$configure_requires = $dist\->find_configure_requires( [file => /path/to/META.yml] )"
.el .SS "\f(CW$configure_requires\fP = \f(CW$dist\fP\->find_configure_requires( [file => /path/to/META.yml] )"
.IX Subsection "$configure_requires = $dist->find_configure_requires( [file => /path/to/META.yml] )"
Reads the configure_requires for this distribution from the META.yml or META.json
file in the root directory and returns a hashref with module names
and versions required.
.ie n .SS "$bool = $dist\->_resolve_prereqs( ... )"
.el .SS "\f(CW$bool\fP = \f(CW$dist\fP\->_resolve_prereqs( ... )"
.IX Subsection "$bool = $dist->_resolve_prereqs( ... )"
Makes sure prerequisites are resolved
