NAME

ORDB::CPANMeta::Generator - Generator for the CPAN Meta database

DESCRIPTION

This is the module that is used to generate the "CPAN Meta" database.

For more information, and to access this database as a consumer, see the ORDB::CPANMeta module.

The bulk of the work done in this module is actually achieved with:

CPAN::Mini - Fetching the index and dist tarballs

CPAN::Mini::Visit - Expanding and processing the tarballs

Xtract - Preparing the SQLite database for distribution

METHODS

new

dir

The dir method returns the directory that the SQLite database will be written into.

dsn

The dsn method returns the DBI DSN that is used to connect to the generated database.

run

The run method executes the process that will produce and fill the final database.
