Modules Installed

This list is not exhaustive. Please email URCF Support if you would like specific modules installed. Or install them into your own directory (see next section).

• PDL (Perl Data Language)[2]
• BioPerl[3]

You can use this Perl script to display all installed modules:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
### from http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=868212
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature qw(:5.12);

use ExtUtils::Installed;
use Module::CoreList;
use Module::Info;

my $inst  = ExtUtils::Installed->new();
my $count = 0;
my %modules;
foreach ( $inst->modules() ) {
    next if m/^[[/:lower:|:lower:]]/;    # skip pragmas
    next if $_ eq 'Perl';       # core modules aren't present in this list,
                                # instead coming under the name Perl
    my $version = $inst->version($_);
    $version = $version->stringify if ref $version; # version may be returned as
                                                    # a version object
    $modules{$_} = { name => $_, version => $version };
    $count++;
}
foreach ( Module::CoreList->find_modules() ) {
    next if m/^[[/:lower:|:lower:]]/;    # skip pragmas
    my $module = Module::Info->new_from_module($_) or next;
    $modules{$_} = { name => $_, version => $module->version // q(???) };
    $count++;
}
foreach ( sort keys %modules ) {
    say "$_ v$modules{$_}{version}";
}
say "\nModules: $count";
__END__

Installing Modules into Home

• See this Perl FAQ: How do I keep my own module/library directory?
• Using a non-standard @INC path:
  • How do I add the directory my program lives in to the module/library search path?
  • How to change @INC to find Perl modules in non-standard locations -- Basically, set the environment variable PERL5LIB
