LabInstance Info
Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language. The Perl language borrows features from other programming languages, including C, shell scripting (sh), AWK, and sed.
This image does not contain the common packages contained in the default tag and only contains the minimal packages needed to run perl. Unless you are working in an environment where only the perl image will be deployed and you have space constraints, we highly recommend using the default image of this repository.
Coexisting with Debian’s /usr/bin/perl
The perl binary built for this image is installed in /usr/local/bin/perl, along with other standard tools in the Perl distribution such as prove and perldoc, as well as cpanm for installing CPAN modules. Containers running this image will also have their PATH enviroment set like /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin to ensure that this perl binary will be found first in normal usage.
As this official image of Docker is built using the buildpack-deps image (or debian:slim for :slim variants,) this image also contains a /usr/bin/perl as supplied by the Debian project. This is needed for the underlying dpkg/apt package management tools to work correctly, as docker-perl cannot be used here due to different configuration (such as @INC and installation paths, as well as other differences like whether -Dusethreads is included or not.)
