Kwalitee Issues
- meta_yml_conforms_to_known_spec
-
Take a look at the META.yml Spec at https://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN::Meta::History::Meta_1_4 (for version 1.4) or https://metacpan.org/pod/CPAN::Meta::Spec (for version 2), and change your META.yml accordingly.
Error: Missing mandatory field, 'abstract' (abstract) [Validation: 1.4];value is an undefined string (abstract) [Validation: 1.4]
- has_readme
-
Add a README to the distribution. It should contain a quick description of your module and how to install it.
- no_pod_errors
-
Remove the POD errors. You can check for POD errors automatically by including Test::Pod to your test suite.
Error: Parallel-ForkManager-0.7.9/lib/Parallel/ForkManager.pm -- Around line 418: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in 'Szabó,'. Assuming CP1252
- meta_yml_declares_perl_version
-
If you are using Build.PL define the {requires}{perl} = VERSION field. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade ExtUtils::MakeMaker to 6.48 and use MIN_PERL_VERSION parameter. Perl::MinimumVersion can help you determine which version of Perl your module needs.
- has_meta_json
-
Add a META.json to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.
- has_tests_in_t_dir
-
Add tests or move tests.pl to the t/ directory!
- meta_yml_has_license
-
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.
- use_warnings
-
Add 'use warnings' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules warn when something bad happens.
Error: Parallel::ForkManager
- meta_yml_has_provides
-
Add all modules contained in this distribution to the META.yml field 'provides'. Module::Build or Dist::Zilla::Plugin::MetaProvides do this automatically for you.
- meta_yml_has_repository_resource
-
Add a 'repository' resource to the META.yml via 'meta_add' accessor (for Module::Build) or META_ADD parameter (for ExtUtils::MakeMaker).
- has_separate_license_file
-
This is not a critical issue. Currently mainly informative for the CPANTS authors. It might be removed later.
