NAME
App::DiffTarballs - Diff contents of two tarballs
VERSION
This document describes version 0.005 of App::DiffTarballs (from Perl
distribution App-DiffTarballs), released on 2021-05-10.
SYNOPSIS
See the included script diff-tarballs.
FUNCTIONS
diff_tarballs
Usage:
diff_tarballs(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]
Diff contents of two tarballs.
Examples:
* Show diff between two Perl releases:
diff_tarballs(
tarball1 => "My-Dist-1.001.tar.gz",
tarball2 => "My-Dist-1.002.tar.bz2"
);
This utility extracts the two tarballs to temporary directories and then
performs "diff -ruN" against the two. It deletes the temporary
directories afterwards.
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* tarball1* => *filename*
* tarball2* => *filename*
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200
means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is
a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third
element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta)
is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
information.
Return value: (any)
