Create a new CPAN::Mirrors object from LOCAL_FILE_NAME. This file
should look like that in http://www.cpan.org/MIRRORED.BY .

=item countries( [CONTINENTS] )

Return a list of countries based on those defined in F<MIRRORED.BY>.
It only returns countries for the continents you specify (as defined
in C<continents>). If you don't specify any continents, it returns all
of the countries listed in F<MIRRORED.BY>.

}

=item mirrors( [COUNTRIES] )

Return a list of mirrors based on those defined in F<MIRRORED.BY>.
It only returns mirrors for the countries you specify (as defined
in C<countries>). If you don't specify any countries, it returns all
of the mirrors listed in F<MIRRORED.BY>.

=item get_mirrors_by_countries( [COUNTRIES] )

A more sensible synonym for mirrors.

=cut

sub get_mirrors_by_countries { &mirrors }

=item get_mirrors_by_continents( [CONTINENTS] )

Return a list of mirrors for all of continents you specify. If you don't
specify any continents, it returns all of the mirrors.

You can specify a single continent or an array reference of continents.

=item default_mirror

Returns the default mirror, http://www.cpan.org/ . This mirror uses
dynamic DNS to give a close mirror.

=cut

sub default_mirror {
    CPAN::Mirrored::By->new({ http => 'http://www.cpan.org/'});

=item best_mirrors

C<best_mirrors> checks for the best mirrors based on the list of
continents you pass, or, without that, all continents, as defined
by C<CPAN::Mirrored::By>. It pings each mirror, up to the value of
C<how_many>. In list context, it returns up to C<how_many> mirrors.
In scalar context, it returns the single best mirror.

Arguments

    how_many      - the number of mirrors to return. Default: 1
    callback      - a callback for find_best_continents
    verbose       - true or false on all the whining and moaning. Default: false
    continents    - an array ref of the continents to check
    external_ping - if true, use external ping via Net::Ping::External. Default: false

If you don't specify the continents, C<best_mirrors> calls
C<find_best_continents> to get the list of continents to check.

If you don't have L<Net::Ping> v2.13 or later, needed for timings,
this returns the default mirror.

C<external_ping> should be set and then C<Net::Ping::External> needs
to be installed, if the local network has a transparent proxy.

=item get_mirrors_timings( MIRROR_LIST, SEEN, CALLBACK, %ARGS );

Pings the listed mirrors and returns a list of mirrors sorted in
ascending ping times.

C<MIRROR_LIST> is an anonymous array of C<CPAN::Mirrored::By> objects to
ping.

The optional argument C<SEEN> is a hash reference used to track the
mirrors you've already pinged.

The optional argument C<CALLBACK> is a subroutine reference to call
after each ping. It gets the C<CPAN::Mirrored::By> object after each
ping.

=item find_best_continents( HASH_REF );

C<find_best_continents> goes through each continent and pings C<N>
random mirrors on that continent. It then orders the continents by
ascending median ping time. In list context, it returns the ordered list
of continent. In scalar context, it returns the same list as an
anonymous array.

Arguments:

    n        - the number of hosts to ping for each continent. Default: 3
    seen     - a hashref of cached hostname ping times
    verbose  - true or false for noisy or quiet. Default: false
    callback - a subroutine to run after each ping.
    ping_cache_limit - how long, in seconds, to reuse previous ping times.
        Default: 1 day

The C<seen> hash has hostnames as keys and anonymous arrays as values.
The anonymous array is a triplet of a C<CPAN::Mirrored::By> object, a
ping time, and the epoch time for the measurement.

The callback subroutine gets the C<CPAN::Mirrored::By> object, the ping
time, and measurement time (the same things in the C<seen> hashref) as
arguments. C<find_best_continents> doesn't care what the callback does
and ignores the return value.

With a low value for C<N>, a single mirror might skew the results enough
to choose a worse continent. If you have that problem, try a larger
value.
