Perl is a widespread programming language and one of its key advantages is that it supports the so-called modules - short bits of code that contain subroutines and do numerous tasks. The convenient side of employing modules is the fact that you do not have to write custom-made code or add the whole code for a specific action every single time it should be executed. Alternatively, you can include only a single line in your Perl script that calls a specific module, that in turn will execute the necessary action. Not only will this give you shorter and more optimized scripts, but it'll also enable you to make modifications swifter and easier. If you are not a programmer, yet you'd like to use a Perl application that you've found on the web, for instance, it's likely that the app will need some modules to be already installed on your web hosting server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Website Hosting
All our website hosting plans come with over 3400 Perl modules which you're able to benefit from as part of your CGI scripts or web-based apps. They include both widely used and less popular ones, to offer you different options regarding what functions you're able to add to your sites. A few examples are Apache::SOAP, CGI::Session, GD, Image::Magick, URI, LWP and a lot more. The full list is available in the Server Information section of our custom Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, that is featured with all the shared accounts. In the same place, you'll find the Perl version which we have along with the path to the modules that you'll need to use within your scripts to call a certain module from the library.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you would like to work with a Perl-based web app or CGI script, you'll be able to use 3400+ different modules which can be found on our cloud hosting platform and are a part of every semi-dedicated server we provide. You will be able to see the full list at any moment via your Hepsia CP together with the folder path required for your scripts to access the modules. We identify the fact that some third-party apps could need modules which aren't really popular in order to run efficiently, hence the big number we have installed on our end. URI, LWP, DBD::mysql and Image::Magick are among the modules that you'll be able to use with your Perl applications irrespective of the package deal you choose.
