Alien::Build::Plugin::UsereContributed:PerllD::Plugin::Prefer::SortVersions(3)

NAME
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Prefer::SortVersions - Plugin to sort candidates
       by most recent first

VERSION
       version 2.37

SYNOPSIS
	use alienfile;

	plugin 'Prefer::SortVersions';

DESCRIPTION
       Note: in	most case you will want	to use
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Download::Negotiate instead.  It picks the
       appropriate fetch plugin	based on your platform and environment.	 In
       some cases you may need to use this plugin directly instead.

       This Prefer plugin sorts	the packages that were retrieved from a	dir
       listing,	either directly	from a Fetch plugin, or	from a Decode plugin.
       It Returns a listing with the items sorted from post preferable to
       least, and filters out any undesirable candidates.

       This plugin updates the file list to include the	versions that are
       extracted, so they can be used by other plugins,	such as
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Prefer::BadVersion.

PROPERTIES
   filter
       This is a regular expression that lets you filter out files that	you do
       not want	to consider downloading.  For example, if the directory
       listing contained tarballs and readme files like	this:

	foo-1.0.0.tar.gz
	foo-1.0.0.readme

       You could specify a filter of "qr/\.tar\.gz$/" to make sure only
       tarballs	are considered for download.

   version
       Regular expression to parse out the version from	a filename.  The
       regular expression should store the result in $1.  The default
       "qr/([0-9\.]+)/"	is frequently reasonable.
