12.23. Program: Finding Versions and Descriptions of Installed ModulesPerl comes with many modules included standard. Even more can be found on CPAN. The following program prints out the names, versions, and descriptions of all modules installed on your system. It uses standard modules like File::Find and includes several techniques described in this chapter. To run it, type: % pmdesc It prints a list of modules and their descriptions: FileHandle (2.00) - supply object methods for filehandles IO::File (1.06021) - supply object methods for filehandles IO::Select (1.10) - OO interface to the select system call IO::Socket (1.1603) - Object interface to socket communications ... With the -v flag, pmdesc provides the names of the directories the files are in: % pmdesc -v <<<Modules from /usr/lib/perl5/i686-linux/5.00404>>> FileHandle (2.00) - supply object methods for filehandles ... The -w flag warns if a module doesn't come with a pod description, and -s sorts the module list within each directory. The program is given in Example 12-3. Example 12-3. pmdesc#!/usr/bin/perl -w # pmdesc - describe pm files # tchrist@perl.com use strict; use File::Find qw(find); use Getopt::Std qw(getopts); use Carp; use vars ( q!$opt_v!, # give debug info q!$opt_w!, # warn about missing descs on modules q!$opt_a!, # include relative paths q!$opt_s!, # sort output within each directory ); $| = 1; getopts("wvas") or die "bad usage"; @ARGV = @INC unless @ARGV; # Globals. wish I didn't really have to do this. use vars ( q!$Start_Dir!, # The top directory find was called with q!%Future!, # topdirs find will handle later ); my $Module; # install an output filter to sort my module list, if wanted. if ($opt_s) { if (open(ME, "-|")) { $/ = ""; while (<ME>) { chomp; print join("\n", sort split /\n/), "\n"; } exit; } } MAIN: { my %visited; my ($dev,$ino); @Future{@ARGV} = (1) x @ARGV; foreach $Start_Dir (@ARGV) { delete $Future{$Start_Dir}; print "\n << Modules from $Start_Dir>>\n\n" if $opt_v; next unless ($dev,$ino) = stat($Start_Dir); next if $visited{$dev,$ino}++; next unless $opt_a || $Start_Dir =~ m!^/!; find(\&wanted, $Start_Dir); } exit; } # calculate module name from file and directory sub modname { local $_ = $File::Find::name; if (index($_, $Start_Dir .

This can also be accomplished through the backend programmer interface in the CPANPLUS module, if you have it installed. This program displays information on all available modules (the -X option is to silence any warnings about invalid paths or version numbers): #!/usr/bin/perl -X use CPANPLUS::Backend; use Data::Dumper; $cp = CPANPLUS::Backend->new; $installed = $cp->installed->rv; # fetch list of installed mods foreach my $module (sort keys %$installed) { # get the module's information $info = $cp->details(modules => [$module])->rv->{$module}; # display the fields we care about printf("%-35.35s %44.44s\n", $module, $info->{Description}); } When run, it outputs a table like this: Algorithm::Cluster Perl extension for the C clustering library Algorithm::NaiveBayes None given AnyDBM_File Uses first available *_File module above Apache Interface to the Apache server API Apache::AuthDBI None given Apache::Connection Inteface to Apache conn_rec struct Copyright © 2003 O'Reilly & Associates.
