oh-my-zsh/plugins/perl

Perl

This plugin adds perl useful aliases/functions.

To use it, add perl to the plugins array in your zshrc file:

plugins=(... perl)

Perlbrew activation

If the plugin detects that perlbrew hasn't been activated, yet there is an installation of it in $PERLBREW_ROOT, it'll initialize by default. To avoid this behaviour, set ZSH_PERLBREW_ACTIVATE=false before source oh-my-zsh.sh in your zshrc.

Aliases

Aliases	Command	Description
pbi	perlbrew install	Install specific perl version
pbl	perlbrew list	List all perl version installed
pbo	perlbrew off	Go back to the system perl
pbs	perlbrew switch	Turn it back on
pbu	perlbrew use	Use specific version of perl
pd	perldoc	Show the perl documentation
ple	perl -wlne	Use perl like awk/sed
latest-perl	curl ...	Show the latest stable release of Perl

Functions

• newpl: creates a basic Perl script file and opens it with $EDITOR.

• pgs: Perl Global Substitution: pgs <find_pattern> <replace_pattern> <filename> Looks for <find_pattern> and replaces it with <replace_pattern> in <filename>.

• prep: Perl grep, because 'grep -P' is terrible: prep <pattern> [<filename>] Lets you work with pipes or files (if no <filename> provided, use stdin).

Requirements

In order to make this work, you will need to have perl installed. More info on the usage and install: https://www.perl.org/get.html
