CPAN::Testers::Data::Generator Description

Download and summarize CPAN Testers data CPAN::Testers::Data::Generator was originally written by Leon Brocard to download and summarize CPAN Testers data. However, all of the original code has been rewritten to use the CPAN Testers Statistics database generation code. This now means that all the CPAN Testers sites including the Reports site, the Statistics site and the CPAN Dependencies site, can use the same database.This module downloads articles from the cpan-testers newsgroup, generating or updating an SQLite database containing all the most important information. You can then query this database, or use CPAN::WWW::Testers to present it over the web.A good example query for Acme-Colour would be: SELECT version, status, count(*) FROM cpanstats WHERE distribution = "Acme-Colour" group by version, state;To create a database from scratch can take several days, as there are now over 2 million articles in the newgroup. As such updating from a known copy of the database is much more advisable. If you don't want to generate the database yourself, you can obtain the latest official copy (compressed with gzip) at http://devel.cpantesters.org/cpanstats.db.gzWith over 2 million articles in the archive, if you do plan to run this software to generate the databases it is recommended you utilise a high-end processor machine. Even with a reasonable processor it can takes days!SYNOPSIS % cpanstats # ... wait patiently, very patiently # ... then use cpanstats.db, an SQLite database # ... or the MySQL database Requirements: · Perl
