Software distributions released to the CPAN include a META.json or, |
| 2 |
for older distributions, META.yml, which describes the distribution, |
| 3 |
its contents, and the requirements for building and installing the |
| 4 |
distribution. The data structure stored in the META.json file is |
| 5 |
described in CPAN::Meta::Spec. |

|
| 7 |
CPAN::Meta provides a simple class to represent this distribution |
| 8 |
metadata (or distmeta), along with some helpful methods for |
| 9 |
interrogating that data. |
