Is there an easy way to view the POD from a local module in a browser to see what it will look like in CPAN?
I would generate the HTML file by the pod2html script and then look at the created file.
pod2html --infile=The/Module.pm --outfile=The/Module.html
The trick is, if I do that the html is the pod for pod2html.
It doesn't seem to like .pm files, only .pod :(
That's strange. Within the makeppd script I use to create the PPM distributions I call the pod2html like this:
pod2html.bat "-htmlroot=." "$file.pm" "-outfile=$file.html"
where $file is eg "Sender". And I do get the right docs.
Mail::Sender is one of my favs BTW :) Thanks for it!
How exactly do you call the script? Could you post your module?
The directory ../x/pmod has some custom .pm files with pod after the __END__ instead of embedded in the code.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict; use warnings; use CGI qw(header param); use Pod::Html;
print header();
my $pmfile = defined param('mod') && -e '../x/pmod/'.param('mod') ? param('mod') : 'CGI.pm';
print "<p>----$pmfile--</p>" if -e "../x/pmod/$pmfile"; # just a temporary sanity check...
pod2html('/usr/bin/pod2html',
"--title=$pmfile pod2html",
'--backlink=Back to Top',
'--css=http://search.cpan.org/s/style.css',
"--infile=../x/pmod/$pmfile"
);I copied CGI.pm to ../x/mod/CGI.pm so it can default to that.
