Perl

Enables local Perl module installation on Mac OS X and defines alises.

Local Module Installation

Perl versions older than 5.14 do not support the local installation of Perl modules natively. This module allows for local installation of Perl modules on Mac OS X in ~/Library/Perl/5.12 by altering the environment.

Usage

For Perl versions older than 5.14, install local::lib.

curl -L -C - -O http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/A/AP/APEIRON/local-lib-1.008004.tar.gz
tar xvf local-lib-1.008004.tar.gz
cd local-lib-1.008004
perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap=$HOME/Library/Perl/5.12
make && make test && make install

Install cpanminus:

curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - --self-upgrade

Perlbrew

An alternative to the above is to use Perlbrew, which allows for the management of multiple, isolated Perl installations in the home directory.

Aliases

General

  • pe executes a one line program in a loop (perl -wlne).
  • pd looks up Perl documentation (perldoc).

  • pb manages Perl environments.
  • pba lists available Perl versions.
  • pbi installs a Perl version.
