How To Create a CPAN Installation Bundle

Install Module::Starter and prerequisites

module-starter —module=Bundle::HoneyClient::Agent —author="MITRE Honeyclient Project" —email=honeyclient@mitre.org

mv Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent/ Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent-1.0.1/

cd Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent-1.0.1/

nano lib/Bundle/HoneyClient/Agent.pm

The only information you need is:

package Bundle::HoneyClient::Agent;

use warnings;
use strict;

=head1 NAME

Bundle::HoneyClient::Agent - The great new Bundle::HoneyClient::Agent!

=head1 VERSION

Version 1.0.1

=cut

our $VERSION = '1.0.1';

1;

=head1 CONTENTS

ExtUtils::CBuilder
ExtUtils::MakeMaker
ExtUtils::ParseXS
Other::Perl::Modules
...

tar czvf Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent-1.0.1.tar.gz Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent-1.0.1/

place Bundle-HoneyClient-Agent-1.0.1.tar.gz in either (.cpan OR honeyclient/cpan)/sources/authors/id/M/MI/MITREHC

To update the CPAN CHECKSUMS file

install CPAN::Checksums

create the following code (if it's not already in honeyclient/bin/UpdateBundleChecksum.pl)

#!/usr/bin/perl

use CPAN::Checksums qw(updatedir);
my $success = updatedir($ARGV[0]);

Then (assuming you're using the local cpan copy) call it as

./UpdateBundleChecksum.pl /home/user/honeyclient/cpan/sources/authors/id/M/MI/MITREHC
