Perl is a preferred scripting language that is used to make different web-oriented apps, which includes CGI scripts. One of the attributes which distinguish it from various other programming languages is the employment of modules - batches of Perl program code that execute predefined jobs and they are widely accepted. Basically, as an alternative to generating custom-made code to make something or pasting tens and hundreds of lines of program code in your script, you're able to "call" a module that is already available for this particular job and use just several lines of code. This way, your script will be executed a lot quicker because it'll be smaller. Using modules will, in addition make a script simpler to change due to the fact that you'll need to browse through much less code. In case you want to use Perl on your site, you need to ensure that the required modules are available on the server.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Shared Web Hosting
More than 3400 Perl modules will be accessible when you get any of our Linux shared web hosting plans. You're able to employ as many as you'd like and we've ensured that we have all of the well-known ones, plus many others that are not used as much, but might be a requirement for a third-party web app that you need to use or for a custom script in order to function effectively. LWP, URI, GD, CGI::Session and Image::Magick are only a couple of examples of the modules you will be able to access. You can see the whole list in your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel as well as the path which you have to set in your scripts, so that they can use the module library. With our shared plans, you are able to employ any kind of Perl-based script without limitations.
Over 3400 Perl Modules in Semi-dedicated Servers
Every single semi-dedicated server that we supply will allow you to use any Perl-based web app that you wish, no matter if you have created it yourself or if you have downloaded it from a third-party site. Either way, it will run properly whatever the modules it needs since we have a rich library that includes more than 3400 different modules. A full list is accessible in the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel that's used to control the semi-dedicated server accounts. Along with that list, you can also see the directory path to the modules, in order to know what you should include in your scripts in order for them to link to the modules. Some examples of what we have are URI, DBD::mysql, Image::Magick and LWP and we offer such a large number of modules to make sure that almost any script will be able to run in spite of its specifications.
