INSTALLATION

To install this module, run the following commands:

  perl Makefile.PL
  make
  make test
  make install

In order to run all the tests, you'll need to define a couple of environment
variables:

PERL_SPLUNK_HOST: this is the host name of the Splunk server. It defaults
                  to 'localhost'.
PERL_SPLUNK_PORT: the port where Splunk is listening. It defaults to 8089.
PERL_SPLUNK_USER: the username used to authenticate with. There is no
                  default value, and the tests will not run if this isn't
                  set.
PERL_SPLUNK_PASS: the password to use for authentication. There is no
                  default value, and the tests will not run if this isn't set.

N.B.: I considered defaulting the username and password to admin/changeme,
      Splunk's defaults, but I think this would encourage people not to change
      these defaults, which I believe it's a bad idea. So, even if you didn't
      change them, you still have to define PERL_SPLUNK_USER and
      PERL_SPLUNK_PASS.
