aarch64/perl repository overview

⁠DEPRECATED

The aarch64⁠ organization is deprecated in favor of the more-specific arm64v8⁠ organization, as per https://github.com/docker-library/official-images#architectures-other-than-amd64⁠. Please adjust your usages accordingly.

⁠Supported tags and respective Dockerfile links

** THESE IMAGES ARE VERY EXPERIMENTAL; THEY ARE PROVIDED ON A BEST-EFFORT BASIS WHILE docker-library/official-images#2289⁠ IS STILL IN-PROGRESS (which is the first step towards proper multiarch images) **

** PLEASE DO NOT USE THEM FOR IMPORTANT THINGS **

This image is built from the source of the official image of the same name (perl)⁠. Please see that image's description for links to the relevant Dockerfiles.

If you are curious about specifically how this image differs, see the Jenkins Groovy DSL scripts in the tianon/jenkins-groovy GitHub repository⁠, which are responsible for creating the Jenkins jobs which build them.

⁠What is Perl?

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language. The Perl language borrows features from other programming languages, including C, shell scripting (sh), AWK, and sed.

⁠How to use this image

⁠Create a Dockerfile in your Perl app project

FROM perl:5.20
COPY . /usr/src/myapp
WORKDIR /usr/src/myapp
CMD [ "perl", "./your-daemon-or-script.pl" ]

Then, build and run the Docker image:

$ docker build -t my-perl-app .
$ docker run -it --rm --name my-running-app my-perl-app

⁠Run a single Perl script

For many simple, single file projects, you may find it inconvenient to write a complete Dockerfile. In such cases, you can run a Perl script by using the Perl Docker image directly:

$ docker run -it --rm --name my-running-script -v "$PWD":/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp perl:5.20 perl your-daemon-or-script.pl
