MirroPAN is a CPAN, BackPAN and DarkPAN mirroring tool.
It brute-force mirrors a *PAN mirror through web scraping, allowing it to work behind a HTTP proxy.
- Brute force HTTP mirroring of CPAN/BackPAN/DarkPAN sources
- Builds a PANdex compatible index
WARNING By default, it'll download approximately 40GB of data (11GB CPAN, 28GB BackPAN)!
Run MirroPAN from the command line:
mirropan
By default, mirropan will mirror both CPAN and BackPAN.
As soon as you specify a -source parameter, both CPAN and BackPAN
mirrors will be disabled. You can add them again by specifying -cpan
and -backpan.
You can disable only BackPAN or CPAN by passing the opposite flag.
For example, to disable the BackPAN mirror, pass the -cpan flag.
