B provides three methods: C, C, and C. These will read and deserialize CPAN metafiles, and are described below in detail. B provides a legacy API of only two functions, based on the YAML functions of the same name. Wherever possible, identical calling semantics are used. These may only be used with YAML sources. All error reporting is done with exceptions (die'ing). Note that META files are expected to be in UTF-8 encoding, only. When converted string data, it must first be decoded from UTF-8. =head1 METHODS =head2 load_file my $metadata_structure = Parse::CPAN::Meta->load_file('META.json'); my $metadata_structure = Parse::CPAN::Meta->load_file('META.yml'); This method will read the named file and deserialize it to a data structure, determining whether it should be JSON or YAML based on the filename. On Perl 5.8.1 or later, the file will be read using the ":utf8" IO layer. =head2 load_yaml_string my $metadata_structure = Parse::CPAN::Meta->load_yaml_string($yaml_string); This method deserializes the given string of YAML and returns the first document in it. (CPAN metadata files should always have only one document.) If the source was UTF-8 encoded, the string must be decoded before calling C. =head2 load_json_string my $metadata_structure = Parse::CPAN::Meta->load_json_string($json_string); This method deserializes the given string of JSON and the result. If the source was UTF-8 encoded, the string must be decoded before calling C. =head2 yaml_backend my $backend = Parse::CPAN::Meta->yaml_backend; Returns the module name of the YAML serializer. See L for details. =head2 json_backend my $backend = Parse::CPAN::Meta->json_backend; Returns the module name of the JSON serializer. This will either be L or L. Even if C is set, this will return L as further delegation is handled by the L module. See L for details. =head1 FUNCTIONS For maintenance clarity, no functions are exported. These functions are available for backwards compatibility only and are best avoided in favor of C. =head2 Load my @yaml = Parse::CPAN::Meta::Load( $string ); Parses a string containing a valid YAML stream into a list of Perl data structures. =head2 LoadFile my @yaml = Parse::CPAN::Meta::LoadFile( 'META.yml' ); Reads the YAML stream from a file instead of a string. =head1 ENVIRONMENT =head2 PERL_JSON_BACKEND By default, L will be used for deserializing JSON data. If the C environment variable exists, is true and is not "JSON::PP", then the L module (version 2.5 or greater) will be loaded and used to interpret C. If L is not installed or is too old, an exception will be thrown. =head2 PERL_YAML_BACKEND By default, L will be used for deserializing YAML data. If the C environment variable is defined, then it is intepreted as a module to use for deserialization. The given module must be installed, must load correctly and must implement the C function or an exception will be thrown. =head1 SUPPORT Bugs should be reported via the CPAN bug tracker at L =head1 AUTHOR Adam Kennedy Eadamk@cpan.orgE =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright 2006 - 2010 Adam Kennedy.
