How to build a CPAN module

Not really, this is just a few rough notes.

https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::Tutorial - shows the format of dist.ini

http://dzil.org/tutorial/start.html

Still use a cpanfile, and also Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Prereqs::FromCPANfile

	on configure => sub {
	requires 'perl' => '5.006';
	requires 'warnings';
	requires 'Module::Build::Tiny' => '0.034';
	};
	on develop => sub {
	requires 'CPAN::Common::Index::Mirror';
	requires 'Test::CPANfile';
	};
	on runtime => sub {
	requires 'warnings';
	requires 'DBIx::Class';
	requires 'SQL::Abstract';
	};
	on test => sub {
	requires 'Test::DBIx::Class';
	requires 'Test2::Suite';
	};

With dzil you can choose whether you want to generate a Makefile.PL or Build.PL

Thanks to Nelo & the team.

Test that all your module dependencies are listed in the cpanfile

Put this at xt/author/cpanfile.t:

	use Test::Most;
	use Test::CPANfile;
	use CPAN::Common::Index::Mirror;
	cpanfile_has_all_used_modules(
	parser => [':installed'],
	index => CPAN::Common::Index::Mirror->new,
	develop => 1,
	perl_minimum_version => 1,
	);
	done_testing;

Thanks Anton & the team.

When Postgres allows any password

Problem: Postgres does not check my password, i.e. it accepts all passwords.

Solution: pg_hba.conf and change trust to md5. Restart postgres. That is all.
