Kwalitee Issues

has_meta_yml

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

has_changelog

Add a Changelog (best named 'Changes') to the distribution. It should list at least major changes implemented in newer versions.

has_human_readable_license

Add a section called "LICENSE" to the documentation, or add a file named LICENSE to the distribution.

has_license_in_source_file

Add =head1 LICENSE and the text of the license to the main module in your code.

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 (18) does not match dist (18):
  • Missing in MANIFEST: Checksum/External.pm, Checksum/Makefile.PL, Checksum/cksum.pm, Checksum/pm_to_blib, Checksum/sum.pm, MANIFEST, Makefile.PL, Manifest.pm, README, manifest, t/1/eq, t/1/minus, t/1/ne, t/2/eq, t/2/ne, t/2/plus, t/MANIFEST, t/manifest.t
  • Missing in Dist: ./Checksum/External.pm, ./Checksum/Makefile.PL, ./Checksum/cksum.pm, ./Checksum/pm_to_blib, ./Checksum/sum.pm, ./MANIFEST, ./Makefile.PL, ./Manifest.pm, ./README, ./manifest, ./t/1/eq, ./t/1/minus, ./t/1/ne, ./t/2/eq, ./t/2/ne, ./t/2/plus, ./t/MANIFEST, ./t/manifest.t

has_abstract_in_pod

Provide a short description in the NAME section of the pod (after the module name followed by a hyphen) at least for the main module of this distribution.

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: Checksum::cksum, Checksum::sum

main_module_version_matches_dist_version

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

has_meta_json

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

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.

has_known_license_in_source_file

Add =head1 LICENSE and/or the proper text of the well-known license to the main module in your code.

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: Checksum::External, Checksum::cksum, Checksum::sum, File::Manifest

consistent_version

Split the distribution, or fix the version numbers to make them consistent (use the highest version number to avoid version downgrade).

Error: 1.00,1.02

has_separate_license_file

This is not a critical issue. Currently mainly informative for the CPANTS authors. It might be removed later.

has_security_doc

Add SECURITY(.pod|md). See Software::Security::Policy.

security_doc_contains_contact

Add SECURITY(.pod|md) and add a contact address. See Software::Security::Policy.

has_contributing_doc

Add CONTRIBUTING(.pod|md). See https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/setting-guidelines-for-repository-contributors.
