This module is about the native integer numerical data type. A native integer is one of the types of datum that can appear in the numeric part of a Perl scalar. This module supplies constants describing the native integer type. Both signed and unsigned representations are handled.

AppConfig is a bundle of Perl5 modules for reading configuration files and parsing command line arguments.

ExtUtils::PkgConfig is a very simplistic interface to the pkg-config utility, intended for use in the Makefile.PL of perl extensions which bind libraries that pkg-config knows. It is really just boilerplate code that you would have written yourself.

This module implements the algorithm for the solution of Bezier curves as presented by Robert D Miller in Graphics Gems V, "Quick and Simple Bezier Curve Drawing".

This package provides procedures to create read-only scalars, arrays, and hashes.

Similar to List::MoreUtils, Hash::MoreUtils contains trivial but commonly-used functionality for hashes. The primary focus for the moment is providing a common API - speeding up by XS is far away at the moment.

MIME-tools is a collection of Perl5 MIME:: modules for parsing, decoding, and generating single- or multipart (even nested multipart) MIME messages.

Crypt::RandPasswd provides three functions that can be used to generate random passwords, constructed from words, letters, or characters. This code is a Perl implementation of the Automated Password Generator standard, like the program described in "A Random Word Generator For Pronounceable Passwords". This code is a re-engineering of the program contained in Appendix A of FIPS Publication 181, "Standard for Automated Password Generator".

Crypt::UnixCrypt_XS implements the DES-based Unix crypt function. For those who need to construct non-standard variants of crypt, the various building blocks used in crypt are also supplied separately.

PLS is a Perl language server that implements a subset of the Language Server Protocol for the Perl language. Features currently implemented are:

• Go to definition (for packages, subroutines, and variables)

• Listing all symbols in a document

• Hovering to show documentation

• Signature help (showing parameters for a function as you type)

• Formatting

• Range formatting

• Auto-completion

• Syntax checking

• Linting (using perlcritic)

• Sorting imports

To use this language with Emacs, you can configure Eglot like so:

(add-hook 'perl-mode-hook 'eglot-ensure)
(setq eglot-server-programs '((perl-mode . ("pls"))))

Path::Iterator::Rule iterates over files and directories to identify ones matching a user-defined set of rules. The API is based heavily on File::Find::Rule, but with more explicit distinction between matching rules and options that influence how directories are searched. A Path::Iterator::Rule object is a collection of rules (match criteria) with methods to add additional criteria. Options that control directory traversal are given as arguments to the method that generates an iterator.

A summary of features for comparison to other file finding modules:

• provides many helper methods for specifying rules

• offers (lazy) iterator and flattened list interfaces

• custom rules implemented with callbacks

• breadth-first (default) or pre- or post-order depth-first searching

• follows symlinks (by default, but can be disabled)

• directories visited only once (no infinite loop; can be disabled)

• doesn't chdir during operation

• provides an API for extensions

As a convenience, the PIR module is an empty subclass of this one that is less arduous to type for one-liners.

Collection of classes that wrap fundamental data types that exist in Perl. These classes and methods as they exist today are an attempt to mirror functionality provided by Moose's Native Traits. One important thing to note is all classes currently do no validation on constructor input.

This Digest::Perl::MD5 has the same interface as the much faster Digest::MD5, but it's a pure Perl implementation of MD5. Because of this it is slow but it works without C code.

Moo is an extremely light-weight Object Orientation system. It allows one to concisely define objects and roles with a convenient syntax that avoids the details of Perl's object system. Moo contains a subset of Moose and is optimised for rapid startup.

This module exports a single hash (%RE) that stores or generates commonly needed regular expressions. Patterns currently provided include: balanced parentheses and brackets, delimited text (with escapes), integers and floating-point numbers in any base (up to 36), comments in 44 languages, offensive language, lists of any pattern, IPv4 addresses, URIs, and Zip codes.

This package is a Test::Run plugin that colors the summary of the test output.

Text::Table renders plaintext tables.

Locale::gettext provides an object oriented interface to the internationalization functions provided by the C library.

This module provides a mechanism for determining if the pod for a given module is comprehensive.

This module provides a simple but extensible way of having plugins for your Perl module.

This module provides routines for parsing date string into time values and formatting dates into ASCII strings.

This module is intended as a drop-in replacement for NEXT, supporting the same interface, but using Class::C3 to do the hard work.

Capture::Tiny provides a simple, portable way to capture almost anything sent to STDOUT or STDERR, regardless of whether it comes from Perl, from XS code or from an external program. Optionally, output can be teed so that it is captured while being passed through to the original file handles.

Exporter::Lite is an alternative to Exporter, intended to provide a lightweight subset of the most commonly-used functionality. It supports import(), @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK and not a whole lot else.
