perl Cookbook

Build Status Cookbook Version

Manages Perl installation and provides cpan_module, to install modules from... CPAN.

Requirements

Platforms

  • Debian/Ubuntu/Mint
  • RHEL/CentOS/Scientific/Amazon/Oracle
  • Fedora
  • openSUSE
  • Windows

Chef

  • Chef 12.7+

Cookbooks

  • windows

Attributes

  • perl['packages'] - platform specific packages installed by default recipe
  • perl['cpanm']['path'] - platform specific path for cpanm binary to live
  • perl['cpanm']['url'] - URL to download cpanm script from
  • perl['cpanm']['checksum'] - checksum for the above remote file

Usage

To install a module from CPAN:

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'

Optionally, installation can forced with the 'force' parameter.

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'
  force true
end

You can also use cpanm's version mechanism to grab a specific version, or glob a version.

Exactly version 1.01 of App::Munchies will be installed:

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'
  version '== 1.01'
end

At least version 1.01 of App::Munchies will be installed:

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'
  version '1.01'
end

At least version 1.01 will be installed, but not version 2:

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'
  version '>= 1.01, < 2.0'
end

Additionally, you can use the cpan_module LWRP to delete a given package (uses cpanm's --uninstall param)

cpan_module 'App::Munchies'
  action :uninstall
end
