1 NAME
2 Canary::Stability - canary to check perl compatibility for schmorp's
3 modules
4
5 SYNOPSIS
6 # in Makefile.PL
7 use Canary::Stability DISTNAME => 2001, MINIMUM_PERL_VERSION;
8
9 DESCRIPTION
10 This module is used by Schmorp's modules during configuration stage to
11 test the installed perl for compatibility with his modules.
12
13 It's not, at this stage, meant as a tool for other module authors,
14 although in principle nothing prevents them from subscribing to the same
15 ideas.
16
17 See the Makefile.PL in Coro or AnyEvent for usage examples.
18
19 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
20 "PERL_CANARY_STABILITY_NOPROMPT=1"
21 Do not prompt the user on alert messages.
22
23 "PERL_CANARY_STABILITY_COLOUR=0"
24 Disable use of colour.
25
26 "PERL_CANARY_STABILITY_COLOUR=1"
27 Force use of colour.
28
29 "PERL_CANARY_STABILITY_DISABLE=1"
30 Disable this modules functionality completely.
31
32 "AUTOMATED_TESTING=1"
33 When this variable is set to a true value and the perl minimum
34 version requirement is not met, the module will exit, which should
35 skip testing under automated testing environments.
36
37 This is done to avoid false failure or success reports when the
38 chances of success are already quite low and the failures are not
39 supported by the author.
