J'ai fais en #Perl pour la stabilité : les outils développés en Perl lors de ma maitrise et DEA, en 1998-1999, sont toujours en ligne, sous Perl 5, qui n'a pas beaucoup changer en fait. 4/

🚀Dans la suite de mes outils OAI du mois dernier, je viens de terminer mes devoirs de vacances avec “csv2www“ : un programme #Perl 🐪 pour publier, montrer, partager en ligne le contenu des fichiers #csv (avec recherche et index paramétrables).

Sorry to all the #dzil haters, but in the end I'm going back to Dist::Zilla for this and my other #Perl #CPAN distributions. I tried the alternatives, but they all failed me for one reason or another.

And in the end, it's just hard to argue with a negative line count delta.

The good news is that I've got it configured to maintain build/main and build/release branches that one can fork and contribute to without having to install all my dependencies.

I think I feel another blog post coming on.

I've released a new version of Dist-Zilla-Plugin-UsefulReadme to #CPAN.

This is a #perl #dzil plugin for generating a README with just the useful bits of the module POD.

This latest version adds a minor option to disable adding prerequisites (mainly for bootstrapping itself) and tweaks some tests.

Happy #CPAN day, everyone!

On this day 30 years ago, 1995-08-16, the Comprehensive #Perl Archive Network had its first module upload.

How do you folks celebrate?

Hey #CPAN authors, you have Opinions on how to best develop and package #Perl modules. What's the best way in 2025?

I've used Dist::Zilla, but there are other options that might encourage contributors who don't use it. What are they?

I'm using a plain ExtUtils::MakeMaker-based setup for metacpan.org/dist/Log-Any-Adap, but keeping prerequisites and version numbers in sync is a chore. I'd like to adopt a better workflow for my other dists.
