Style

POD

  • POD; pod2html pod2latex pod2man pod2text pod2usage
  • make sure to leave 1 empty line before/after cut

Example:

 $ cat test.pl
 =pod

 =head1 sub max(number,number)
 Returns max of 2 numbers

 =cut

 sub max
 {
       my ($a,$b)=@_;
       return ($a>$b)?$a:$b;
 }

 =head1 sub min(number,number)
 Returns min of 2 numbers

 =cut

 sub min
 {
       my ($a,$b)=@_;
       return ($a<$b)?$a:$b;
 }

 print max(1,2),"\n";
 print min(1,2),"\n";
 $ perdoc test.pl
 sub max(number,number) Returns max of 2 numbers
 sub min(number,number) Returns min of 2 numbers

In place editing

  • Edit a file in place: -i
 perl -i.bck script.pl xxx
 => xxx(new), xxx.bck(old)
  • dos2unix
 perl -i -pe 's/\r//g' file
  • unix2dos
 perl -i -pe 's/\n/\r\n/' file

Cmd line options

  • BEGIN/END blocks
 perl -ane 'BEGIN { print "sum\n"}  END { print $sum,"\n" } $sum += $F[0]; '
  • Check all files
 ls *pl | perl -pe 'print "perl -c "; '

Regular Expressions

  • Maximal match (default)
 echo $PERLLIB | perl -ane '/^(.+):/; print $1,"\n"'
  • Minimal match
 echo $PERLLIB | perl -ane '/^(.+?):/; print $1,"\n"'
 /fs/sz-user-supported/Linux-x86_64/lib
  • Translation:
 $_ =~ tr/abc/ABC/
  • All matches
 while($text=~m/($pattern)/g) { print "$` $& $'\n"; }

Search directories

  • -Idir : same as "use lib dir_name"
 default: /usr/include & /usr/lib/perl
 add dirs to PERLLIB env variable <=>  @INC 
 perl -e '$,="\n"; print  @INC ; '
  • Find installed modules
 perl -e 'foreach(@INC) { if(-d $_) {system "find $_ -type d -name Bio\n";}} '
 perl -e 'foreach(@INC) { if(-f $_) {system "find $_ -type f -name SeqIO.pm\n";}} '
 perl -e 'foreach(@INC) { if(-d $_) {system "find $_ -type f -path Bio/SeqIO.pm\n";}} ' # not working though it should!
 ~/bin/findPerlModule.pl Bio::SeqIO

Command line arguments

  • PERL5OPT : -[DIMUdmtw] switches

Debug

  • caller function : shows the context
 print STDERR "DEBUG: context: ",(caller(0))[3],"\n";

Libraries

  • prefix.pm
 ...
 1;
  • prefix.pl
 require "prefix.pm":
 ...


Modules

  • -M moldule: same as "use module_name"
 perl -MLWP::Simple -e' print head "http://www.example.com"'
 perl -e 'use LWP::Simple; print head "http://www.example.com"'
  • Installation(Makefile)
 $ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/szdevel/CPAN
 $ make
 $ make test
 $ make install
   
 $ find ~/szdevel/CPAN -type f
 bin/xmltidy
 lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/XML/Tidy.pm
 lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/XML/Tidy/.packlist
 lib64/perl5/5.8.5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod
 share/man/man3/XML::Tidy.3pm
  • Installation(Build)
 $ perl Build.PL --prefix ~/szdevel/CPAN
 $ ./Build test
 $ ./Build install

Useful ones:

Variables

  • spec_variables
  • $0 : program name
  • $. : input line number
  • $, : output field separator (default="")
 $ perl -e '$, = "\n";print (1,2,3,"");'
 1
 2
 3
 $ perl -e '$, = " "; @l=("a","b","c"); print map {uc($_)} @l; '
 A B C
  • $/ : the input record separators (default="\n")
  • $\ : output record separators (default="")


Argument passing

Example:

 sub test
 {
       my ($options)=@_;
       my %options=%{$options};
       print $options{a},"\n";
 }

 my %options;
 $options{a}="a";
 test(\%options);

Files

  • open(IN, '-') # Open standard input
  • open(IN, '>-') # Open standard output
  • @lines = <IN> # read all lines in the file
  • $line = <IN> # read one line

Hashes

  • foreach $person (keys %ages) {}
  • foreach $age (values %ages) { }
  • while (($person, $age) = each(%ages)) {}
  • cmd hash
 my %cmd_hash = (scarf2std=>\&scarf2std, fqint2std=>\&fqint2std);  
 &{$cmd_hash{$cmd}};  
 sub scarf2std {...} 
 sub fqint2std {...}


Security

File names

  • use open(IN,"<" ,filename) instead of open(IN,filename)
 filename could be "rm -fr * |" 
  • check file names for illegal characters
 $filename =~ /^([\w.-]+)$/)

Taint mode

 #!/usr/bin/perl -wT
 use strict;
 delete @ENV{qw(IFS CDPATH ENV BASH_ENV)};
 $ENV{PATH} = "/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin";

Profiling

 perl -d:DProf test.pl        => tmon.out
 dprofpp
