⚠️ Warning: Legacy Repository

• That project was moved to https://github.com/webpros-cpanel/docker-perl-compiler

Summary

Docker container recipes to build Perl with a few extra patches required by the Perl Compiler. The goal is to provide a docker container to speedup the Perl Compiler testsuite.

You can view the last testsuite run here.

The docker containers are available from the public docker hub cpanelos/perl-compiler.

Tips & Tricks

Rebuilding the image

You should not need to rebuild the container, and prefer using the one from upstream. Docker images are automatically build and published on pushes.

You can trigger a manual build locally using:

docker build . --no-cache

Testing a container

You can test locally the container by overriding the entrypoint then bash to it. Adjust the tag cpanelos/perl-compiler:perl-v5.36.0 to point to any other flavor you want. (for example cpanelos/perl-compiler:latest)

docker pull cpanelos/perl-compiler:perl-v5.36.0
docker rm -f mytest
docker run --name mytest  --entrypoint "/bin/bash" -it -d cpanelos/perl-compiler:perl-v5.36.0

docker ps -a
docker exec -it mytest bash
