Description
Perl is a scripting language that has been used extensively within bioinformatics. It is thus included within Cortex VMs. We also include the perlbrew package, which gives you the ability to install multiple versions of Perl within self-contained environments. To use perlbrew, first initialize it and add it to your shell variable:
| Code Block |
|---|
(base) -bash-4.2$ perlbrew init
perlbrew root (~/perl5/perlbrew) is initialized.
Append the following piece of code to the end of your ~/.bash_profile and start a
new shell, perlbrew should be up and fully functional from there:
source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc
Simply run `perlbrew` for usage details.
Happy brewing!
(base) -bash-4.2$ echo "source ~/perl5/perlbrew/etc/bashrc" >> ~/.bashrc |
Log out and then back in again to get a fresh shell.
