2. Managing CPAN Dependencies Friday, October 14, 2011
3. Case Study: (Poor) Web Development Friday, October 14, 2011
4. You’re writing a new web app. You don’t wanna reinvent wheels. Want to use as many CPAN deps. Friday, October 14, 2011
5. Fine. Get them from CPAN, install on your machine. Friday, October 14, 2011
6. >  cpanm  Web::Framework installed  LWP-­‐5.912 installed  Plack-­‐0.9980 installed  Web-­‐Framework-­‐1.20 >  cpanm  JSON::Fast installed  JSON-­‐Fast-­‐1.91 >  cpanm  MIME::Parser::XS installed  MIME-­‐Parser-­‐XS-­‐0.20 Friday, October 14, 2011
7. Test it... Friday, October 14, 2011
8. Works? Ship it! Friday, October 14, 2011
9. Deployment Set up new production servers. Install CPAN modules (until the errors are gone) Friday, October 14, 2011
10. Few weeks later... Friday, October 14, 2011
11. Your website is popular! Need more web servers! Friday, October 14, 2011
12. Re-Deployment Set up new production servers. Install CPAN modules (until the errors are gone) Friday, October 14, 2011
13. “Crap, Web::Framework has been updated to 1.4 and many APIs have been changed or deprecated!” Friday, October 14, 2011
14. Rollback Log in to the old web server. Check Perl module versions. Install them on the new server. Friday, October 14, 2011
15. “Crap, this author deleted the version 1.20 we want. Let’s go to BackPAN...” Friday, October 14, 2011
16. “Crap, version 1.20 doesn’t actually work with the newer LWP 6 that we just installed! Have to downgrade this too...” Friday, October 14, 2011
17. and so on. Friday, October 14, 2011
18. What was wrong? Friday, October 14, 2011
19. • Dependency declaration • Isolated Perl environments • Version controls/history • Dependency analysis • Repeatable deployments • etc. Friday, October 14, 2011
20. Many existing solutions MyCPAN, DPAN, CPAN::Mini::Inject, OrePAN, Shipwright Friday, October 14, 2011
21. None of those didn’t quite work for me. (Or I haven’t even tried) Friday, October 14, 2011

26. • App-specific local environment • Fast and safe install • Dep-tree analysis, including versions • Locking module versions • Easy Redeployment • Single-file, VCS friendly • Safe and easy rollback Friday, October 14, 2011
27. Local perl environment Using local::lib and cpanm -L Each app has an isolated local library path Friday, October 14, 2011
28. Fast and safe install cpanm 1.5 Saves MYMETA.json and install meta info Friday, October 14, 2011
29. Dep tree analysis Rebuild the dependency tree from meta info Checks if anything is missing/superflous Friday, October 14, 2011
30. Locking versions Versions are saved in carton.lock including dependencies Friday, October 14, 2011
31. Easy Redeployment Reinstall exactly the same set of modules on another prod/development machines. Friday, October 14, 2011
32. Single-file, VCS friendly You can add carton.lock to git update whenever you update modules Friday, October 14, 2011
33. Safe and easy rollback revert the lock file and redeploy Friday, October 14, 2011
