Perl and perl modules

++++++++++ Note: We are going to change the version format of the modules. See https://github.com/openSUSE/cpanspec/issues/47 for context ++++++++++ ++++++++++ Note 2: Packages are maintained under git as of 2025-08-13: https://src.opensuse.org/perl https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:OBS_to_Git ++++++++++ Perl and a large number of important perl modules and tools. Module updates from CPAN are regularly checked (with scripts from https://github.com/openSUSE/autoupdate-perl and https://github.com/openSUSE/cpanspec ) and put into https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:languages:perl:autoupdate . Please check https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:languages:perl:autoupdate first before doing your own update! An updated version of the module might already be there, just that there is no submit request yet.

Database independent interface for Perl

The DBI is a database access module for the Perl programming language. It defines a set of methods, variables, and conventions that provide a consistent database interface, independent of the actual database being used. It is important to remember that the DBI is just an interface. The DBI is a layer of "glue" between an application and one or more database _driver_ modules. It is the driver modules which do most of the real work. The DBI provides a standard interface and framework for the drivers to operate within. This document often uses terms like _references_, _objects_, _methods_. If you're not familiar with those terms then it would be a good idea to read at least the following perl manuals first: perlreftut, perldsc, perllol, and perlboot.
