information about the content of the enabled repositories. |
=item F<$HOME/.ActivePerl/ppm4.log> |
Log file created to record actions that PPM takes. On Windows this is |
logged to F<$TEMPDIR/ppm4.log>. |
On Mac OS X this is logged to F<$HOME/Library/Logs/ppm4.log>. |
=item F<$PREFIX/etc/ppm-$NAME-area.db> |
SQLite database where PPM tracks packages installed in the install area |
under C<$PREFIX>. |
=item F<$TEMPDIR/ppm-XXXXXX/> |
Temporary directories used during install. Packages to be installed |
are unpacked here. |
=item F<*.ppmx> |
These files contains a single package that can be installed by PPM. |
They are compressed tarballs containing the PPD file for the package |
and the F<blib> tree to be installed. |
=item F<*.ppd> |
XML files containing meta information about packages. Each package has |
its own .ppd file. See L<ActivePerl::PPM::PPD> for additional |
information. |

looks for this file and if present, monitors it too stay in sync with |
the state of the repository. |
=item F<package.lst> |

=head1 ENVIRONMENT |
The following environment variables affect how PPM behaves: |
=over |
=item C<ACTIVEPERL_PPM_DEBUG> |
If set to a TRUE value, makes PPM print more internal diagnostics. |
=item C<ACTIVEPERL_PPM_BOX_CHARS> |
Select what kind of box drawing characters to use for the C<ppm * |
list> outputs. Valid values are C<ascii>, C<dos> and C<unicode>. The |
default varies. |
=item C<ACTIVEPERL_PPM_HOME> |
If set, use this directory to store state and configuration |
information for PPM. This defaults to |
F<$LOCAL_APPDATA/ActiveState/ActivePerl/$VERSION> on Windows and |
F<$HOME/.ActivePerl/$VERSION/> on Unix systems. |
=item C<ACTIVEPERL_PPM_LOG_CONS> |
If set to a TRUE value, make PPM print any log output to the console as |
well. |
=item C<DBI_TRACE> |
PPM uses L<DBI> to access the internal SQLite databases. Setting |
DBI_TRACE allow you to see what queries are performed. Output goes to |
STDERR. See L<DBI> for further details. |
=item C<http_proxy> |
PPM uses L<LWP> to access remote repositories. If you need HTTP |
traffic pass via a proxy server to reach the repository, you must set |
the C<http_proxy> environment variable. Some examples: |
Using bash: |
export http_proxy=http://proxy.mycompany.com |
Using cmd.exe: |
set http_proxy=http://username:password@proxy.mycompany.com:8008 |
See L<LWP::UserAgent/env_proxy> for more. |
