I have a perl app that I'd like to move to FreeBSD. It currently has a
whole list of cpan dependencies. Is there any partial automation of
generating ports from CPAN directly? Something similar to py-pytoport
for example.
You could have a look at App::Pm2Port
(https://metacpan.org/pod/App::Pm2Port)
Last change: January 2010, so it's probably not modern enough for the
newer infrastructure ?
Good point. I wonder if a shell script might not be a better
approach to accomplish the desired goal; it'd be easier to
keep up to date with the evolving ports framework, and wouldn't
require any additional [external] dependencies. Is there anything
in under Mk/ that might be added to, or used as a starting point?
Just as side-note: Michael Fausten and myself currently working at an
application which creates, tests and submits port-updates automatically.
We aim to start with Rubygems and CPan. If you start working at creation
of such a port, let us know. Maybe there is some synergy :)
Greetings,
Torsten
