fetch-reqs.pl

VERSION

version 0.2.0

NAME

fetch-reqs.pl - install prerequisite modules for a Perl script with minimal prerequisites for this tool

USAGE

fetch-reqs.pl [--debug] [--quiet] [--notest] filename|module [...]
cat req-list.txt | fetch-reqs.pl [--debug] [--quiet] [--notest]

OPTIONS

The files listed on the command line should either be file names of Perl scripts or modules to scan for dependencies, or names of Perl modules to load. Each file's Perl module dependencies or each named Perl module will be installed by Sys::OsPackage using operating system packages if available, or otherwise via CPAN.

Sys::OsPackage currently contains OS packaging drivers for Fedora/RHEL/CentOS, Debian/Ubuntu, SuSE/OpenSuSE, Arch and Alpine Linux and their derivatives. More drivers can be added by creating new subclasses of Sys::OsPackage::Driver.

EXIT STATUS

Standard Unix program exit codes are used: 0 if no error, 1 if error.

SEE ALSO

Sys::OsRelease is used by Sys::OsPackage to detect the operating system by its ID. For Linux distributions, it also uses ID_LIKE data to detect common distirbutions it is derived from. For example, Linux distributions derived from Debian or Red Hat are not all known, but are recognizable with ID_LIKE.
