cpanminus is already packaged for EL7. It just isn’t installed by default.
$ sudo yum install perl-App-cpanminus

You can list perl-App-cpanminus in a BuildRequires rule to tell rpmpbuild that it’s needed to build the RPM. Then you don’t have a command soaking up CPU time and network I/O on each RPM build.

Add a Requires line for perl-JSON or perl-JSON-PP to the spec file, and the same for perl-Moose. That will make yum seek those dependencies out and install them before your RPM.
Because perl-Moose is in EPEL, this does add an implicit dependency on EPEL, but from your post it seems you’re already depending on it.

Only if your package does in fact include those Perl distributions. But given that perl-JSON and perl-Moose are available separately, I don’t see why you’d want to do that.
