@ChristosArgyrop @Perl I don’t think it searched or , because “BinaryTree” doesn’t exist there. It’s merely suggesting a package name.

If it actually searched CPAN it would tell you about something like metacpan.org/pod/Tree::Binary

And if it were truly CPAN-aware it would tell you to name your package Local::BinaryTree so you don’t get surprised later when another package from outside preempts your name: pause.perl.org/pause/query?ACT

I've always used to create interfaces to , but I noticed there is a package Platypus that is a wrapper over libffi.
Any comparative experience?

@rrwo @Perl A cursory search didn’t turn up anything. I smell an XY problem, though. xyproblem.info What are you ultimately trying to accomplish?

If you want to make such a module, start with perldoc.perl.org/Tie::Hash

@ology You might also consider creating your own module in the Mojolicious::Command::Author::generate namespace. There are a couple dozen on already, maybe one is close to your needs? metacpan.org/search?q=module%3

@slu had its fans and some tried to promote it, and as you can see there was some effort made to incorporate it into the author lifecycle. But I don’t think it was ever more than a hobby project. Towards the end its code repository moved under the organization, but they never actually hosted the service or had much else to do with it.

Of course I would be remiss if I did not mention the -powered sponsorship available for , the module search engine: opencollective.com/metacpan-co

Are you a Perl ? Do you employ Perl developers? Then you rely on MetaCPAN to find packaged code to deliver quality faster without reinventing the wheel.

Make sure you can keep doing that by contributing!
