Kwalitee Issues

extracts_nicely

Pack the distribution with a proper command such as "make dist" and "./Build dist", or use a distribution builder such as Dist::Zilla, Dist::Milla, Minilla.

Error: More than one top directories are found: ._META.json;._MYMETA.yml;INSTALL;._lib;._MANIFEST;._README;META.json;MANIFEST;t;LICENSE;._LICENSE;test.pl;._t;MYMETA.yml;Changes;dist.ini;._dist.ini;README;._Changes;._test.pl;lib

meta_json_is_parsable

Upgrade your META.json generator so it produces valid JSON.

Error: malformed JSON string, neither tag, array, object, number, string or atom, at character offset 90 (before "\x{201c}Stefan Certi...")

meta_json_conforms_to_known_spec

Take a look at the META.json 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.json accordingly.

has_meta_yml

Add a META.yml to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

has_buildtool

Add a Makefile.PL (for ExtUtils::MakeMaker/Module::Install) or a Build.PL (for Module::Build and its friends), or use a distribution builder such as Dist::Zilla, Dist::Milla, Minilla.

no_mymeta_files

Update MANIFEST.SKIP to exclude MYMETA files. If you are lazy, add "#!install_default" in your MANIFEST.SKIP and update your ExtUtils::Manifest if necessary, then some of the most common files will be excluded.

manifest_matches_dist

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.

Error:

  • MANIFEST (9) does not match dist (33):
  • Missing in MANIFEST: ._Changes, ._LICENSE, ._MANIFEST, ._META.json, ._MYMETA.yml, ._README, ._dist.ini, ._lib, ._t, ._test.pl, MYMETA.yml, lib/.DS_Store, lib/._.DS_Store, lib/._Net, lib/Net/.DS_Store, lib/Net/._.DS_Store, lib/Net/._SMS, lib/Net/SMS/.DS_Store, lib/Net/SMS/._.DS_Store, lib/Net/SMS/._CSNetworks.pm, t/.DS_Store, t/._.DS_Store, t/._000-load.t, test.pl

use_strict

Add 'use strict' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules are strictly written.

Error: Net::SMS::._CSNetworks, Net::SMS::CSNetworks

main_module_version_matches_dist_version

Make sure that the main module name and version are the same of the distribution.

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_tests_in_t_dir

Add tests or move tests.pl to the t/ directory!

no_dot_underscore_files

If you use Mac OS X, set COPYFILE_DISABLE (for OS 10.5 and better) or COPY_EXTENDED_ATTRIBUTES_DISABLE (for OS 10.4) environmental variable to true to exclude dot underscore files from a distribution.

  • t/._.DS_Store
  • t/._000-load.t

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: Net::SMS::._CSNetworks, Net::SMS::CSNetworks

no_invalid_versions

Fix the version numbers so that version::is_lax($version) returns true.

Error:

  • lib/Net/SMS/CSNetworks.pm: HASH(0x55c8d2147348)

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).
