docker-perl-tester

This repo is used to build Perl Docker images with various pre-installed bits:

  • the aspell and aspell-en packages
  • cpanminus
  • App::cpm
  • Devel::Cover
  • various testing modules
  • Dist::Zilla with some common plugins (for Perl >= 5.20)

At this points images are refreshed daily, which could change overtime if it becomes an issue. This should guarantee you to test uptodate CPAN stack.

Note: if one dependency fails to install, this should not impact you as the image would not be published on failures.

devel build

Note that the devel build was added to test on the current Perl development version. (example: 5.37.8, ) This is tracking the last Perl devel version released.

OS flavor

Images are built for both Debian buster and Debian bookworm. The versions without an explicit Debian version are buster.

Continuous Integrations

Using the images with GitHub Workflow

Here is a sample workflow for Linux running on all Perl version 5.10 to 5.40 You can save the content in .github/workflow/linux.yml.

Note: this example is using cpm to install the dependencies from a cpanfile. You can comment this line or use Dist::Zilla instead for supported Perl versions.

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

        run: perl -V
      - name: Install Dependencies
        run: cpm install -g --no-test --show-build-log-on-failure --cpanfile cpanfile
      - name: Makefile.PL

      - name: make test
        run: make test

Using Helper scripts

The scripts from perl-actions/ci-perl-tester-helpers are available in the path of each container. These scripts can build and test dists for you in various scenarios. See https://github.com/Perl-Critic/PPI/blob/master/.github/workflows/dzil-build-and-test.yml for an example of how to use the helpers to build and tests a Perl distribution.

More Examples

You can find more details on how to setup GitHub workflow to smoke Perl projects by reading skaji/perl-github-actions-sample GitHub repository.

Using GitHub actions

You can also consider using GitHub actions:

Building Docker images

When pushing to GitHub, it's using a GitHub action .github/workflows/publish-to-docker.yml to automagically build and publish the docker images for you.

If you consider cloning this repository, you would have to set in your GitHub repository the following secret variables, with some example values.

DOCKER_REPO=perldocker/perl-tester
DOCKER_USERNAME=username
DOCKER_GITHUB_TOKEN=a-token-or-password

Developer Notes:

The main branch is named main and not master.
