Beginner's Introduction to Perl 5.10, Part 2
Perl 5 has come a long way in the past few years. The newest version, Perl 5.10, added several new features to make your programs shorter, easier to maintain, easier to write, and more powerful. Here's how to start using files and strings in modern Perl.
A Beginner's Introduction to Perl 5.10
Perl 5 has come a long way in the past few years. The newest version, Perl 5.10, added several new features to make your programs shorter, easier to maintain, easier to write, and more powerful. Here's how to start using modern Perl productively.
Using Amazon S3 from Perl
Amazon's Simple Storage Service provides a simple, flexible, and inexpensive way to manage online data storage. Amazon's S3 modules for Perl make storing and retrieving data in your own programs almost trivial, leaving Amazon to worry about hosting, scaling, and backups. Abel Lin shows how to store, retrieve, and store data with Amazon S3.
Reverse Callback Templating
Many programmers know of the two main systems of templating. One embeds actual source code into the template. The other provides a mini language with loops, conditionals, and other control structures. There is a third way -- a reverse callback system. James Robson explains this best-of-both-worlds approach by demonstrating Perl's Template::Recall module.
Elements of Access Control
Some data is private. Other data, less so. Secure applications make it possible--and easy--to keep user data visible to the right people and invisible to the wrong people. Vladi Belperchinov explains how access control works and demonstrates with working code suitable for implementing your own access controls.
How to Tell Your Perl Story (at OSCON)
Have you done something stunningly cool or staggeringly useful with Perl in the past year? Conference season will be here soon; it's time to consider giving a talk to your local monger group, a regional conference, or even OSCON. Perl track committee member brian d foy gives several guidelines to help you decide what to talk about and how to present it.
Memories of 20 Years of Perl
The Perl community just celebrated the 20th anniversary of Perl. Here are some stories from Perl hackers around the world about problems they've solved and memories they've made with the venerable, powerful, and still vital language.
Programming is Hard, Let's Go Scripting...
Larry Wall's annual State of the Onion describes the state of Perl, the language and the community. In his 11th address, he discussed the past, present, and future of scripting languages, including the several dimensions of design decisions important to the development of Perl 6.
PDF Processing with Perl
Adobe's PDF is a well-established format for transferring pixel-perfect documents. It's not nearly as malleable as plain text, but several CPAN modules make creating, manipulating, and reusing PDFs much easier. Detlef Groth demonstrates how to use PDF::Reuse.
Making Perl Reusable with Modules
Perl programs are easy to write, especially if they solve simple problems. If you find yourself re-using the same programs (or worse, the same code), it's time to bundle your code into pieces easier to reuse. It's time to turn programs into modules. Andy Sylvester walks through the three steps of making a simple, standalone Perl program into a robust, tested, distributable, and reusable piece of code.
Option and Configuration Processing Made Easy
Many useful programs take arguments and configuration options. It's easy to add one or two, but as your program grows, the difficulty of allowing configuration concisely and intelligently also grows. Jon Allen demonstrates how to unify argument and configuration processing in a way that lets you write good code and your users get on with their work.
Better Code Through Destruction
Perl 5's reference counting scheme almost always keeps memory usage predictable...except for one corner case. The Resource Acquisition Is Initialization strategy helps avoid memory leaks--and can improve your use of exceptions, alarms, other resources, and even transactional systems. Igor Gariev demonstrates.
Everyday Perl 6
Perl 6 will soon be here, and to Perl 5 programmers it will feel very different yet very much the same. Perl 6 will enable programmers to be more expressive by giving them more tools to work with (making easy things easy) and allowing them to be more precise in their expressions. Jonathan Scott Duff demonstrates how everyday Perl tasks remain easy but become clearer and more powerful in Perl 6 code that you can run today.
Lightning Strikes Four Times
Perl lightning articles offer short takes on important subjects. See how Perl can outperform C for 3D programming, how (and why) to express cross-cutting concerns in your programs, and one way of keeping your test counts up-to-date.
The Beauty of Perl 6 Parameter Passing
Perl 6 isn't quite out yet, but you can learn and play with it today in various incarnations. One of the most compelling new features is a revamped and revised mechanism of parameter passing. Phil Crow demonstrates how powerful it is, and how you can gradually adopt more and more powerful constructs.

Dowse::BadSSH on CPAN
One of the nasty things about the recent OpenSSH vulnerability is that it affects non-debian systems, too. Thankfully the script to find the bad keys was written in Perl. With a bit of back-porting, I managed to get it to work with perl 5.6.1, and thanks to the magic of Module::Install, I have made a tarball which includes the dependencies of the debian-published script and uploaded to CPAN as Dowse::BadSSH. Unlike the published script, the updated dowkd.pl is capable of removing bad keys and checks more places on the system, such as known_hosts files and the system host key. Portability patches more than welcomed. Yes, I realise I probably should have based my work off the upstream sources Also available from utsl.gen.nz Read more of this story at use Perl.

Orlando Perl Mongers
So tonight I got to speak to the Orlando Perl Mongers’ group on Moose. The group for only having two meetings was surprisingly well organized and seemed to have some very good people involved with it. They are however trying to expand (like any good group), and I thought perhaps people in the echo chamber would be able to come out of the woodwork and support the Orlando group. We have a talk on board for next month, but are looking for speakers for the month(s) after. Read more of this story at use Perl.
Test automation master class after YAPC::NA
For the first time in the USA, I am going to teach a condensed version of my Test automation using Perl course. It will take place alongside the other master classes on June 19-20, 2008, on the two days right after YAPC::NA. Thanks to brian d foy you can already register for the class.

CPANdeps can now highlight non-perl dependencies
At the user's request, CPANdeps has sprouted another tentacle. There's now a ticky box which, if enabled, makes it also fetch MANIFEST files for the entire dependency tree, and highlight any modules (actually distributions) that don't look like they're pure perl. The heuristic is simple. We assume that a distribution is pure perl unless it contains a file that ends in .xs, .c or .h, or it depends on Inline::*. But if there is any file in the distro whose name contains the string 'pureperl' (case-insensitive, naturally), then we assume that the distribution contains a pure perl version as well as the C-ish version. If there's any other things I should look for, please use the "report bugs" link on the website. Read more of this story at use Perl.

Perl Mongers Census 2008 is GO!
As promised a couple of weeks ago, I've sent a census email to all registered leaders of Perl Mongers groups. If you are the leader of a group and you haven't received the mail, then please contact me at census[at]pm.org. Results should follow in a few weeks (dependent on how soon the group leaders respond).

Perl Mongers BOF in Copenhagen
YAPC::Europe 2008 in Copenhagen is fast approaching, and the deadline for proposals for next year's conference is not too far away (June 30th), but I've been thinking of events even further in the future. With the Perl Monger census that Dave Cross is organising, I'm hoping it might identify some of the groups that could potentially host the event, given that their membership would be big enough to help out. I then hope to get to know some of the leaders and members that are attending YAPC::Europe themselves, and see if I can encourage a few to at least think about hosting a YAPC::Europe. Seeing as we've now had 3 in the UK, there's no reason why we can't hold it in Germany, France or Portugal again. So I won't just be trying to persuade those in countries who have never hosted before ;) Read more of this story at use Perl.
