[Buildroot] [pkg-perl infra V8 0/6] a package infrastructure for Perl/CPAN modules

[Francois Perrad]

delta V7 vs V8 :
 - typo and minor improvements

delta V6 vs V7 :
 - global
   + substitute 'perl_5' by 'Artistic or GPLv1+'
 - scancpan
   + remove 'NO ABSTRACT'
   + check Module::CoreList::is_core with the target Perl version
   + add packages Module-CoreList and MetaCPAN-API-Tiny instead of use Fatpack
   + add GPL

delta V5 vs V6 :

 - export PERL5LIB
 - rename PKG_PERL_ARCHNAME to PERL_ARCHNAME
 - remove $(2)_*_OPT (with empty default value)
 - remove PERL_INSTALL_TARGET_GOALS

Francois Perrad (6):
  pkg-perl: new infrastructure
  scancpan: a new script
  host-perl-xml-parser: rename and refactor with perl infrastructure
  host-perl-module-build: new package
  manual: adding packages perl
  perl: remove PERL_INSTALL_TARGET_GOALS

+# Perl package infrastructure
+#
+# This file implements an infrastructure that eases development of
+# package .mk files for Perl packages.
+#
+# See the Buildroot documentation for details on the usage of this
+# infrastructure
+#
+# In terms of implementation, this perl infrastructure requires
+# the .mk file to only specify metadata information about the
+# package: name, version, download URL, etc.
+#
+# We still allow the package .mk file to override what the different
+# steps are doing, if needed. For example, if <PKG>_BUILD_CMDS is
+# already defined, it is used as the list of commands to perform to
+# build the package, instead of the default perl behaviour. The
+# package can also define some post operation hooks.

[Buildroot] [pkg-perl infra V8 3/6] host-perl-xml-parser: rename and refactor with perl infrastructure

[Francois Perrad]

Even though libxml-parser-perl had a Config.in file with an option to
enable it on the target, this option was hidden by a dependency on
BR2_HOST_ONLY. So in practice, it was not possible to enable
libxml-parser-perl on the target. This allows us to rename
libxml-parser-perl to perl-xml-parser to follow the new naming
convention of Perl packages, without having to introduce
Config.in.legacy material.

In addition to this rename, the package is converted to use the newly
introduced Perl package infrastructure.

+
+[[perl-package-tutorial]]
+
++perl-package+ tutorial
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+First, let's see how to write a +.mk+ file for a Perl/CPAN package,
+with an example :
+
+------------------------
+01: ################################################################################
+02: #
+03: # perl-foo-bar
+04: #
+05: ################################################################################
+06:
+07: PERL_FOO_BAR_VERSION = 0.02
+08: PERL_FOO_BAR_SOURCE = Foo-Bar-$(PERL_FOO_BAR_VERSION).tar.gz
+09: PERL_FOO_BAR_SITE = $(BR2_CPAN_MIRROR)/authors/id/M/MO/MONGER/
+10: PERL_FOO_BAR_DEPENDENCIES = perl-strictures
+11: PERL_FOO_BAR_LICENSE = Artistic or GPLv1+
+12: PERL_FOO_BAR_LICENSE_FILES = LICENSE
+13:
+14: $(eval $(perl-package))
+------------------------
+
+On line 7, we declare the version of the package.
+
+On line 8 and 9, we declare the name of the tarball and the location
+of the tarball on a CPAN server. Buildroot will automatically download
+the tarball from this location.
+
+On line 10, we declare our dependencies, so that they are built
+before the build process of our package starts.
+
+On line 11 and 12, we give licensing details about the package (its
+license on line 11, and the file containing the license text on line
+12).
+
+Finally, on line 14, we invoke the +perl-package+ macro that
+generates all the Makefile rules that actually allow the package to be
+built.
+
+Most of these data can be retrieved from https://metacpan.org/.
+So, this file and the Config.in can be generated by running
+the script +supports/scripts/scancpan Foo-Bar+ in the +TOPDIR+ directory
+(or in the +BR2_EXTERNAL+ directory).
+This script recursively creates packages for all required Perl/CPAN
+dependencies.
+
+[[perl-package-reference]]
+
++perl-package+ reference
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+As a policy, packages that provide Perl/CPAN modules should all be
+named +perl-<something>+ in Buildroot.
+
+This infrastructure handles various Perl build systems :
++ExtUtils-MakeMaker+, +Module-Build+ and +Module-Build-Tiny+.
++Build.PL+ is always preferred when a package provides a +Makefile.PL+
+and a +Build.PL+.
+
+The main macro of the Perl/CPAN package infrastructure is
++perl-package+. It is similar to the +generic-package+ macro. The ability to
+have target and host packages is also available, with the
++host-perl-package+ macro.
+
+Just like the generic infrastructure, the Perl/CPAN infrastructure
+works by defining a number of variables before calling the
++perl-package+ macro.
+
+First, all the package metadata information variables that exist in the
+generic infrastructure also exist in the Perl/CPAN infrastructure:
++PERL_FOO_VERSION+, +PERL_FOO_SOURCE+,
++PERL_FOO_PATCH+, +PERL_FOO_SITE+,
++PERL_FOO_SUBDIR+, +PERL_FOO_DEPENDENCIES+,
++PERL_FOO_INSTALL_TARGET+.
+
+Note that:
+
+ * Setting +PERL_FOO_INSTALL_STAGING+ to +YES+ has no effect (unless
+   a +PERL_FOO_INSTALL_STAGING_CMDS+ variable is defined), since
+   Perl modules generally don't need to be installed to the
+   +staging+ directory.
+
+A few additional variables, specific to the Perl/CPAN infrastructure,
+can also be defined. Many of them are only useful in very specific
+cases, typical packages will therefore only use a few of them.
+
+* +PERL_FOO_CONF_OPT+, to specify additional configure
+  options to pass to the +perl Makefile.PL+ or +perl Build.PL+.
+  By default, empty.
+
+* +PERL_FOO_BUILD_OPT+, to specify additional options to
+  pass to +make pure_all+ or +perl Build build+ in the build step.
+  By default, empty.
+
+* +PERL_FOO_INSTALL_TARGET_OPT+, to specify additional options to
+  pass to +make pure_install+ or +perl Build install+ in the install step.
+  By default, empty.
+
+* +HOST_PERL_FOO_INSTALL_OPT+, to specify additional options to
+  pass to +make pure_install+ or +perl Build install+ in the install step.
+  By default, empty.

 With only one bullet point, the bullet list is pointless. Also I think
the formulation of the explanation is not very clear. I proposed this
alternative in reply to v6:

Note that setting +PERL_FOO_INSTALL_STAGING+ to +YES+ has no effect
unless a +PERL_FOO_INSTALL_STAGING_CMDS+ variable is defined. The perl
infrastructure doesn't define these commands since Perl modules generally
don't need to be installed to the +staging+ directory.


 Otherwise, looks good to me.

 Arnout

 Did you miss this mail? I didn't see this changed in v9.

 Maybe you just disagree with what I say here, but then please say so
explicitly.

I see it but after sending V9. Applied in V10.
