CPANPL...HomeEnv(3pm)

💖 CPANPL...HomeEnv(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection, and it's about CPANPLUS::Config::HomeEnv — yes the name is a whole mouthful, we love her anyway 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

CPANPLUS::Config::HomeEnv — the lil thing that sets the environment for the CPANPLUS base dir. literally that's her whole job. no cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's the vibe:

export PERL5_CPANPLUS_HOME=/home/moo/perls/conf/perl-5.8.9/

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. iconic, honestly 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so CPANPLUS::Config::HomeEnv is a CPANPLUS::Config file, and what she does is let the CPANPLUS user say where CPANPLUS gets its configuration from. main character energy, truly 👑

here's the tea: when you set the environment variable PERL5_CPANPLUS_HOME to some path location, that's what decides where the .cpanplus directory is gonna live. so like, point it somewhere, and boom, that's home base now 🏠✨

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

• "setup" — this one gets called by CPANPLUS::Configure. that's it, that's the method, she's doing her little job in the background, lowkey carrying everything 🙈
