Bug#1061697: ITP: libcgi-tiny-perl -- module providing a modern interface to write CGI scripts

[Nick Morrott]

Package: wnpp
Owner: Nick Morrott 
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-de...@lists.debian.org, debian-p...@lists.debian.org

* Package name: libcgi-tiny-perl
  Version : 1.002
  Upstream Author : Dan Book 
* URL : https://metacpan.org/release/CGI-Tiny
* License : Artistic-2.0
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description : module providing a modern interface to write CGI scripts

CGI::Tiny provides a modern interface to write CGI scripts to dynamically
respond to HTTP requests as defined in RFC 3875. It is intended to be:

 * Minimal
 CGI::Tiny contains a small amount of code and (on modern Perls) no non-core
 requirements. No framework needed.

 * Simple
 CGI::Tiny is straightforward to use, avoids anything magical or surprising,
 and provides easy access to the most commonly needed features.

 * Robust
 CGI::Tiny's interface is designed to help the developer follow best
 practices and avoid common pitfalls and vulnerabilities by default.

 * Lazy
 CGI::Tiny only loads code or processes information once it is needed,
 so simple requests can be handled without unnecessary overhead.

 * Restrained
 CGI::Tiny is designed for the CGI protocol which executes the program again
 for every request. It is not suitable for persistent protocols like FastCGI
 or PSGI.

 * Flexible
 CGI::Tiny can be used with other modules to handle tasks like routing and
 templating, and doesn't impose unnecessary constraints to reading input or
 rendering output.

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.

  Description : Perl module to seamlessly integrate IO::AIO into AnyEvent

AnyEvent::AIO is an AnyEvent user: you need to make sure that you use and run
a supported event loop.

Loading this module will install the necessary magic to seamlessly integrate
IO::AIO into AnyEvent, i.e. you no longer need to concern yourself with
calling IO::AIO::poll_cb or any of that stuff (you still can, but this module
will do it in case you don't).

This package is a dependency of libperl-languageserver-perl and will be

  Programming Lang: Go
  Description : terminal file manager written in Go

lf (as in "list files") is a terminal file manager written in Go. It is heavily
inspired by ranger with some missing and extra features. Some of the missing
features are deliberately omitted since they are better handled by external 
tools.

Features:

 - Single binary without any runtime dependencies (except terminfo database)
 - Fast startup and low memory footprint
 - Server/client architecture to share file selection between multiple instances
 - Configuration with shell commands
 - Customizable keybindings (vi and readline defaults)
 - Preview filtering (for source highlight, archives, PDFs/images as text, etc.)

I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Go team.

Peter,

Thank you for your work in packaging python-pyjsparser. Out of
curiosity, what are you using to be build your package?

I checked out the package and built it - your work looks good, and the
build was successful. I then ran it through lintian, Debian's package
linting tool which you should get into the habit of using before
uploading to salsa (and once you're a DM/DD, also before uploading to
the archive).

Here is the lintian output for the binary changes file:

N: Unpacking packages in group python-pyjsparser/2.7.1-1
N: 
N: Processing changes file python-pyjsparser (version 2.7.1-1, arch

I: python3-pyjsparser: extended-description-is-probably-too-short
N: Finished processing group python-pyjsparser/2.7.1-1

The output is split into 2 sections for the source and binary
package(s). As you can see, there are a few issues to take care of,
which I expand on below (you can ignore the gpg-signature warning
unless the packages on pypi are signed).

* d/control
  - no Rules-Requires-Root field [lintian]
  - the extended package description should probably include details
about the library's key features/support [lintian]

* d/copyright
  - the only copyright dates I can see in the source are 2014-2015
  - you can add the Upstream-Contact field to the header

* d/rules
  - pybuild can provide verbose output with "export PYBUILD_VERBOSE=1"

* d/upstream/metadata
  - please add and complete this file - there are plenty of examples
in the team's salsa project [lintian]

* d/watch
  - +1 for asking upstream to version their releases on github
  - the additional (commented) scaffolding inserted into the file by
dh-make can be removed to leave only the version line and the URL to
check [lintian]
  - as this is a version 4 watch file, we can take advantage of new
variable substitutions for the version and extension fields, so that
the URL to check would look like:

https://pypi.debian.net/pyjsparser/pyjsparser@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@

* upstream changelog
  - there is no upstream changelog

* documentation/examples
  - There is no documentation at all, aside from the simple example in
the README. Perhaps this snippet could be installed as an example when
installing the package?

* tests
  - there are no tests to run at build time (and therefore no
autopkgtests to run for continuous integration whenever the package's
dependencies are updated). Looking at the github repo there seems to
be a significant testsuite that should really be available in the
Debian source package to take advantage of autopkgtest. [lintian]


I hope you find this useful - if you have any questions don't hesitate
to ask the team (the Python list is visible and archived, IRC may get
a quicker answer...). I'm a new DD and there are likely some things
that the more experienced members of the team will notice.

Thanks,
Nick

  Description : module for generating SAX2 events from nested Perl data 
structures

XML::Generator::PerlData provides a simple way to generate SAX2 events from
nested Perl data structures, while providing finer-grained control over the
resulting document streams.

Processing comes in two flavours: Simple Style and Stream Style:

In a nutshell, 'simple style' is best used for those cases where you have a
single Perl data structure that you want to convert to XML as quickly and
painlessly as possible. 'Stream style' is more useful for cases where you are
receiving chunks of data (like from a DBI handle) and you want to process
those chunks as they appear.

XML::Generator::PerlData is recommended by Task::Kensho, a list of recommended 
modules for Enlightened Perl development maintained by the Enlightened Perl 
Organisation.

Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Simple provides an abstraction to the
Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module for easier creation of simple single-sheet
Excel documents.

In its most basic form it provides two methods for writing data:

 * write_row
 * write_bold_row

which write the data supplied to the next row of the spreadsheet.

However, you can also use $ss->book and $ss->sheet to get at the underlying
workbook and worksheet from Spreadsheet::WriteExcel if you wish to manipulate
these directly.

pytest-random-order is a pytest plugin that randomises the order of tests.
This can be useful to detect a test that passes just because it happens to
run after an unrelated test that leaves the system in a favourable state.

The plugin allows the user to control the level of randomness they want to
introduce and to disable reordering on subsets of tests. Tests can be rerun
in a specific order by passing a seed value reported in a previous test run.

This package installs the pytest plugin for Python 3.

  Description : build tool for C/C++ projects using modular components

yotta is a tool from ARM mbed, to make it easier to build better software with 
C++ and C by re-using modules. Modules are published to the yotta registry to 
share them with other people, or re-use them privately in your own projects.

Whenever you build a project with yotta, you first select a yotta target. 
Targets describe the platform that you're building for (such as an embedded IoT 
development board, or natively for Linux), and provide all the information that 
yotta and modules you're using need to configure themselves correctly for that 
platform.

yotta is the build tool used for the compilation of the micro:bit MicroPython 
firmware.

Discussion about the upstream MicroPython runtime is taking place at
https://github.com/ntoll/uflash/issues/54.

Upstream have confirmed that there are no non-free sources included in
the firmware, However, whether it is possible to build the firmware
locally with yotta without requiring an ARM mbed account *and* network
connection remains to be clarified.

The yotta build tool is not packaged in Debian.

Aside from ever-changing Standards versions, there are 2 non-overridden issues:

testsuite-autopkgtest-missing
debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature

I am looking into addressing the first issue, as I add build testing using xvfb.

Thanks. I am also pinging #debian-python for suggestions - the outcome
of the MicroPython runtime build steps seems like it will dictate how
to binary packages are organised.

  Description : Perl extension for ELF hash function

This Perl module provides a fast implementation of the ELF hash function.

It is a stable module and seems to be an ideal candidate for packaging.

Bug#805317: RFP: libdate-pregnancy-perl -- Calculate birthdate and week numbers for a pregnancy

[Nick Morrott]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: libdate-pregnancy-perl
  Version : 0.05
  Upstream Author : Jonas B. Nielsen 
* URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Date-Pregnancy
* License : The Artistic License 2.0
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description : Calculate birthdate and week numbers for a pregnancy

This module can be used to calculate the due date for a pregnancy. It
implements 3 different methods, which will give different results.

This module relies heavily on DateTime objects in order to calculate
dates of birth, week numbers and month numbers.

I've used this library for a few years. It is straightforward and does
not change frequently, and therefore seems to be an ideal candidate for
packaging.

I plan to maintain this package under the umbrella of the Debian Perl
Group (nickm-guest).

Cheers,
Nick
