Dependency tree for perl distribution written in go

Primary LanguageGo

#Deptree

This library produces a fully resolved dependency tree for Perl distributions. A command line client is available on the cmd\deptree folder.

Installing

  1. Clone the repository go get https://github.com/yanndr/deptree.
  2. Build/install the application :make install or go build ./cmd/deptree

Usage

This program needs access to a CPAN folder to run successfully; one is provided here ./cmd/deptree/data. You can define the path of the CPAN folder with the flag -path. By default the path is set to ./data. If you run the program directely from the ./cmd/deptree folder, you won't have to define the -path flag.

deptree -path path/to/cpan -name DateTime -name Specio
OPTIONS:
  -name value
        Distribition name to resolve; this flag is mandatory. You need to define it once but you can also define it multiple times.
  -path string
        The path to the CPAN folder. (default "./data")

Example:

deptree -name DateTime

Docker

You can aslo use the program with Docker. First you'll have to make the docker image:

make docker

or

docker build -t deptree .

Once the docker image is created, you can run the program with the command:

docker run --rm -it  deptree -name  DateTime

The docker image embeds a data folder on the root folder, so you don't have to specify the -path flag.

If you want to use a different path, use the following syntax:

docker run --rm -it -v $PWD/cmd/deptree/data:/mydata  deptree -name  DateTime -path ./mydata
