This is the README file for WWW::PkgFind, a tool for retrieving packages (tarballs, patches, etc.) posted to web pages. It is suitable for being run as a cronjob to watch a website for new package releases, and download the packages that match your acceptance criteria. This was designed for use in an automated testing environment, where you want to watch some open source project's websites for new releases of tarballs, patches, etc. and automatically retrieve them and queue them for processing. For more information on how to use the script, see the pod documentation via the command perldoc WWW::PkgFInd perldoc pkgfind or, after installation, view the man pages with man WWW::PkgFind man pkgfind For instructions on how to install the script, see the file INSTALL.
