cpan

I want to use the SVN::Client cpan module to check out code from a repository. But how to install and use this module? The documentation is kind of no existing. I have tried install the Alien::SVN module both through cpan and build it myself. And it seems to install okay. No error messages, and when i go into cpan again and do the following it states that the Alien::SVN module is installed. cpan> install Alien::SVN Alien::SVN is up to date. Here is my class that uses the SVN::Client: use strict; use warnings; use Alien::SVN; use SVN::Client; sub new { my $self = { localpath => '' }; bless(

I recently ran into some trouble installing some modules and discovered to my surprise that many of the modules that had been installed, have duplicated installations and versions. Trying to track where stuff goes in a standard (if there is such a thing) installation using cpanm , I found the following results very confusing. The reports show these locations: Using cpan -V : # cpan -V /usr/bin/cpan script version 1.672, CPAN.pm version 2.22 -------------------------------------------------- Checking install dirs... Checking core + /usr/share/perl5/5.26 + /usr/lib/perl5/5.26/x86_64-cygwin

Are there any good (and preferably free) code coverage tools out there for Perl? moritz Yes, Devel::Cover is the way to go. If you develop a module, and use Module::Build to manage the installation, you even have a testcover target: perl Build.PL ./Build testcover That runs the whole test suite, and makes a combined coverage report in nice HTML, where you can browse through your modules and watch their coverage. Sherm Pendley As usual, CPAN is your friend: Have a look at Devel::Cover Ovid As noted, Devel::Cover is your friend, but you'll want to google for it, too. It's documentation is a bit

i have a 1and1 hosting account and would like to install some Perl CPAN modules that are not part of the standard host package. Is it possible to install modules without ROOT access? If so, how do i do that? Thanks for the pointers in advance. cpanminus is quickly becoming the choice interface for CPAN. It supports installing packages in to the user's home directory. Its usage is frightening simple. To install the cpanminus package locally: curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - App::cpanminus To install an arbitrary package: curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - Lingua::Romana::Perligata Remember to

The first time you run cpan from the command line, you are prompted for answers to various questions. How do you automate cpan and install modules non-interactively from the beginning? phaylon Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, cpanminus is a zero-conf cpan installer. And you can download a self-contained executable if it isn't available for your version control. The cpanm executable is easily installed (as documented in the executable itself) with: curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - --self-upgrade # or wget -O - http://cpanmin.us | perl - --self-upgrade I was looking for an easy solution for

I am using Perl running in user space (not installed via root) and installing modules via the command-line cpan . I would like to know if there is a simple way to remove a module without having to do a lot of work deleting individual files. I searched for this question on the internet and found some answers, but the answers I've found seem to either discuss using the Perl package manager (specific for Microsoft Windows), otherwise operating-system specific (BSDpan), suggesting using cpanplus (which I've had several bad experiences with), or ended by pointing to a dead link as follows: http:/

I want another developer to run a Perl script I have written. The script uses many CPAN modules that have to be installed before the script can be run. Is it possible to make the script (or the perl binary) to dump a list of all the missing modules? Perl prints out the missing modules’ names when I attempt to run the script, but this is verbose and does not list all the missing modules at once. I’d like to do something like: $ cpan -i `said-script --list-deps` Or even: $ list-deps said-script > required-modules # on my machine $ cpan -i `cat required-modules` # on his machine Is there a simple
