Kwalitee Fails
Core metrics
These fails do affect your Kwalitee scores. This distribution may not be installed cleanly, or may have some issues in license or documentation. Please consider fixing them, or tell us if they are false.
| metric | remedy |
|---|---|
| has readme |
The file "README" is missing from this distribution. The README provides some basic information to users prior to downloading and unpacking the distribution. Add a README to the distribution. It should contain a quick description of your module and how to install it. |
| has meta yml |
The file "META.yml" is missing from this distribution. META.yml is needed by people maintaining module collections (like CPAN), for people writing installation tools, or just people who want to know some stuff about a distribution before downloading it. Add a META.yml to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it. |
| has changelog |
The distribution hasn't got a Changelog (named something like m/^chang(es?|log)|history$/i. A Changelog helps people decide if they want to upgrade to a new version. Add a Changelog (best named 'Changes') to the distribution. It should list at least major changes implemented in newer versions. |
| buildtool not executable |
The build tool (Build.PL/Makefile.PL) is executable. This is bad because you should specify which perl you want to use while installing. Change the permissions of Build.PL/Makefile.PL to not-executable. |
| has human readable license |
This distribution does not have a license defined in the documentation or in a file called LICENSE Add a section called "LICENSE" to the documentation, or add a file named LICENSE to the distribution. |
| has license in source file |
Does not have license information in any of its source files Add =head1 LICENSE and the text of the license to the main module in your code. |
| manifest matches dist |
MANIFEST does not match the contents of this distribution. Run a proper command ("make manifest" or "./Build manifest", maybe with a force option), or use a distribution builder to generate the MANIFEST. Or update MANIFEST manually. |
| package version matches dist version |
None of the package versions in this distribution matches the distribution version. Fix the version(s). |
Extra metrics
These fails affect your total Kwalitee score, but don't affect the one for the Game. Some of them should be fixed by all means. Others are just matters of taste.
| metric | remedy |
|---|---|
| meta yml has license |
This distribution does not have a license defined in META.yml. Define the license if you are using in Build.PL. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade to ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31. |
| has known license in source file |
Does not have license information in any of its source files, or the information is not recognized by Software::License Add =head1 LICENSE and/or the proper text of the well-known license to the main module in your code. |
| is prereq |
This distribution is not required by another distribution by another author. Convince / force / bribe another CPAN author to use this distribution. |
Experimental metrics
These fails are not serious and don't affect your Kwalitee scores at all.
| metric | remedy |
|---|---|
| has separate license file |
This distribution does not have a LICENSE or LICENCE file in its root directory. This is not a critical issue. Currently mainly informative for the CPANTS authors. It might be removed later. |
