CPAN - query, download and build perl modules from CPAN sites
Interactive mode:
perl -MCPAN -e shell;
Batch mode:
use CPAN;
autobundle, clean, install, make, recompile, test
autobundle, clean, install, make, recompile, test
Example:
root@laptop:~# perl -MCPAN -e shell
Terminal does not support AddHistory.
cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.9205)
ReadLine support available (maybe install Bundle::CPAN or Bundle::CPANxxl?)
cpan[1]> test
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.18)
CPAN: LWP::UserAgent loaded ok (v5.819)
CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.9711)
I would like to connect to one of the following sites to get ‘authors/01mailrc.txt.gz’:
http://www.perl.org/CPAN/
ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/
Is it OK to try to connect to the Internet? [yes]
