PAR(3)                               User Contributed Perl Documentation                              PAR(3)



NAME
       PAR - Perl Archive Toolkit

SYNOPSIS
       (If you want to make an executable that contains all module, scripts and data files, please consult
       the pp utility instead. pp used to be part of the PAR distribution but is now shipped as part of the
       PAR::Packer distribution instead.)

       Following examples assume a foo.par file in Zip format.

       To use Hello.pm from ./foo.par:

           % perl -MPAR=./foo.par -MHello
           % perl -MPAR=./foo -MHello          # the .par part is optional

       Same thing, but search foo.par in the @INC;

           % perl -MPAR -Ifoo.par -MHello
           % perl -MPAR -Ifoo -MHello          # ditto

       Following paths inside the PAR file are searched:

           /lib/
           /arch/
           /i386-freebsd/              # i.e. $Config{archname}
           /5.8.0/                     # i.e. $Config{version}
           /5.8.0/i386-freebsd/        # both of the above
           /

       PAR files may also (recursively) contain other PAR files.  All files under following paths will be
       considered as PAR files and searched as well:

           /par/i386-freebsd/          # i.e. $Config{archname}
           /par/5.8.0/                 # i.e. $Config{version}
           /par/5.8.0/i386-freebsd/    # both of the above
           /par/

       Run script/test.pl or test.pl from foo.par:

           % perl -MPAR foo.par test.pl        # only when $0 ends in '.par'

       However, if the .par archive contains either script/main.pl or main.pl, then it is used instead:

           % perl -MPAR foo.par test.pl        # runs main.pl; @ARGV is 'test.pl'

       Use in a program:

           use PAR 'foo.par';
           use Hello; # reads within foo.par

           # PAR::read_file() returns a file inside any loaded PARs
           my $conf = PAR::read_file('data/MyConfig.yaml');

           # PAR::par_handle() returns an Archive::Zip handle
           my $zip = PAR::par_handle('foo.par')
           my $src = $zip->memberNamed('lib/Hello.pm')->contents;

       You can also use wildcard characters:

           use PAR '/home/foo/*.par';  # loads all PAR files in that directory

       Since version 0.950, you can also use a different syntax for loading .par archives:

           use PAR { file => 'foo.par' }, { file => 'otherfile.par' };

       Why? Because you can also do this:

           use PAR { file => 'foo.par, fallback => 1 };
           use Foo::Bar;

       Foo::Bar will be searched in the system libs first and loaded from foo.par if it wasn't found!

           use PAR { file => 'foo.par', run => 'myscript' };

       This will load foo.par as usual and then execute the script/myscript file from the archive. Note that
       your program will not regain control. When script/myscript exits, so does your main program. To make
       this more useful, you can defer this to runtime: (otherwise equivalent)

           require PAR;
           PAR->import( { file => 'foo.par', run => 'myscript' } );

       If you have PAR::Repository::Client installed, you can do this:

           use PAR { repository => 'http://foo/bar/' };
           use Module; # not locally installed!

       And PAR will fetch any modules you don't have from the specified PAR repository. For details on how
       this works, have a look at the SEE ALSO section below. Instead of an URL or local path, you can
       construct an PAR::Repository::Client object manually and pass that to PAR.  If you specify the
       "install => 1" option in the "use PAR" line above, the distribution containing "Module" will be
       permanently installed on your system. ("use PAR { repository => 'http://foo/bar', install => 1 };")

       Furthermore, there is an "upgrade => 1" option that checks for upgrades in the repository in addition
       to installing. Please note that an upgraded version of a module is only loaded on the next run of
       your application.

       Adding the "dependencies => 1" option will enable PAR::Repository::Client's static dependency
       resolution (PAR::Repository::Client 0.23 and up).

       Finally, you can combine the "run" and "repository" options to run an application directly from a
       repository! (And you can add the "install" option, too.)

         use PAR { repository => 'http://foo/bar/', run => 'my_app' };
         # Will not reach this point as we executed my_app,

DESCRIPTION
       This module lets you use special zip files, called Perl Archives, as libraries from which Perl
       modules can be loaded.

       It supports loading XS modules by overriding DynaLoader bootstrapping methods; it writes shared
       object file to a temporary file at the time it is needed.

       A .par file is mostly a zip of the blib/ directory after the build process of a CPAN distribution. To
       generate a .par file yourself, all you have to do is compress the modules under arch/ and lib/, e.g.:

           % perl Makefile.PL
           % make
           % cd blib
           % zip -r mymodule.par arch/ lib/

       Afterward, you can just use mymodule.par anywhere in your @INC, use PAR, and it will Just Work.
       Support for generating .par files is going to be in the next (beyond 0.2805) release of
       Module::Build.

       For convenience, you can set the "PERL5OPT" environment variable to "-MPAR" to enable "PAR"
       processing globally (the overhead is small if not used); setting it to "-MPAR=/path/to/mylib.par"
       will load a specific PAR file.  Alternatively, consider using the par.pl utility bundled with the
       PAR::Packer distribution, or using the self-contained parl utility which is also distributed with
       PAR::Packer on machines without PAR.pm installed.

       Note that self-containing scripts and executables created with par.pl and pp may also be used as .par
       archives:

           % pp -o packed.exe source.pl        # generate packed.exe (see PAR::Packer)
           % perl -MPAR=packed.exe other.pl    # this also works
           % perl -MPAR -Ipacked.exe other.pl  # ditto

       Please see "SYNOPSIS" for most typical use cases.

NOTES
       Settings in META.yml packed inside the PAR file may affect PAR's operation.  For example, pp provides
       the "-C" ("--clean") option to control the default behavior of temporary file creation.

       Currently, pp-generated PAR files may attach four PAR-specific attributes in META.yml:

           par:
             clean: 0          # default value of PAR_CLEAN
             signature: ''     # key ID of the SIGNATURE file
             verbatim: 0       # was packed prerequisite's PODs preserved?
             version: x.xx     # PAR.pm version that generated this PAR

       User-defined environment variables, like PAR_GLOBAL_CLEAN, always overrides the ones set in META.yml.
       The algorithm for generating caching/temporary directory is as follows:

       •   If PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP is specified, use it as the cache directory for extracted libraries, and do
           not clean it up after execution.

       •   If PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP is not set, but PAR_CLEAN is specified, set PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP to
           "TEMP/par-USER/temp-PID/", cleaning it after execution.

       •   If both are not set,  use "TEMP/par-USER/cache-HASH/" as the PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP, reusing any
           existing files inside.

       Here is a description of the variables the previous paths.

       •   TEMP is a temporary directory, which can be set via $ENV{PAR_GLOBAL_TMPDIR}, $ENV{TMPDIR},
           $ENV{TEMPDIR}, $ENV{TEMP} or $ENV{TMP}, in that order of priority.  If none of those are set,
           C:\TEMP, /tmp are checked.  If neither of them exists, . is used.

       •   USER is the user name, or SYSTEM if none can be found.  On Win32, this is $Win32::LoginName.  On
           Unix, this is $ENV{USERNAME} or $ENV{USER}.

       •   PID is the process ID.  Forked children use the parent's PID.

       •   HASH is a crypto-hash of the entire par file or executable, calculated at creation time.  This
           value can be overloaded with "pp"'s --tempdir parameter.

       By default, PAR strips POD sections from bundled modules. In case that causes trouble, you can turn
       this off by setting the environment variable "PAR_VERBATIM" to 1.

   import options
       When you "use PAR {...}" or call PAR->import({...}), the following options are available.

         PAR->import({ file => 'foo.par' });
         # or
         PAR->import({ repository => 'http://foo/bar/' });

       file
           The par filename.

           You must pass one option of either 'file' or 'repository'.

       repository
           A par repository (exclusive of file)

       fallback
           Search the system @INC before the par.

           Off by default for loading .par files via "file =" ...>.  On by default for PAR repositories.

           To prefer loading modules from a repository over the locally installed modules, you can load the
           repository as follows:

             use PAR { repository => 'http://foo/bar/', fallback => 0 };

       run The name of a script to run in the par.  Exits when done.

       no_shlib_unpack
           Skip unpacking bundled dynamic libraries from shlib/$archname.  The client may have them
           installed, or you may wish to cache them yourself.  In either case, they must end up in the
           standard install location (such as /usr/local/lib/) or in $ENV{PAR_TEMP} before you require the
           module which needs them.  If they are not accessible before you require the dependent module,
           perl will die with a message such as "cannot open shared object file..."

       PAR supports the prefork module. It declares various run-time dependencies so you can use the prefork
       module to get streamlined processes in a forking environment.
