Minimal Perl For UNIX and Linux People

Tim Maher - Minimal Perl For UNIX and Linux People

Manning | 2006 | ISBN 1932394508 | Pages: 503 | PDF | 3.48 MB

“

Perl is a great language, with an ingenious mentality underlying it, and a terrific
user community gathered around it. Given these properties, it’s no wonder it has become so popular.
It would have been easy to write a truly “minimal” book on Perl by revealing so little
of the language that nobody would have been able to do much with it. This isn’t that
kind of book.
It would also have been easy to write yet another “maximal” book on Perl, which
would spend so much ink enthusing over its expressiveness, reveling in its redundancies,
frolicking through its freakier features, and rampaging through its ribald regions,
that there’d be insufficient room left to adequately explain how realistic programs
actually work or to give you practical tips on avoiding common problems. This isn’t
that kind of book either.
This is a new kind of Perl book—one that empowers you to write lots of useful programs,
without learning any more about Perl than is necessary.

Perl for System Administration :Managing multi-platform environments with Perl

10:04 PM sridhar

Description : Some people plan to become administrators. The rest of us are thrust into it: we are webmasters, hobbyists, or just the default "technical people" on staff who are expected to keep things running. After some stumbling around repeating the same steps over and over again (and occasionally paying the price when we forget one), we realize that we must automate these tasks, or suffer endless frustration. Thus enters Perl. The Perl programming language is ideal for writing quick yet powerful scripts that automate many administrative tasks. It's modular, it's powerful, and it's perfect for managing systems and services on many platforms. Perl for System Administration is designed for all levels of administrators--from hobbyists to card-carrying SAGE members--sysadmins on multi-platform sites. Written for several different platforms (Unix, Windows NT, and Mac OS), it's a guide to the pockets of administration where Perl can be most useful for sites large and small, including:

Filesystem management
User administration with a dash of XML
DNS and other network name services
Database administration using DBI and ODBC
Directory services and frameworks like LDAP and ADSI
Using email for system administration
Working with log files of all kinds

Each chapter concentrates on a single administrative area, discusses the possible pitfalls, and then shows how Perl comes to the rescue. Along the way we encounter interesting Perl features and tricks, with many extended examples and complete programs. The scripts included in the book can simply be used as written or with minimal adaptation. But it's likely that readers will also get a taste of what Perl can do, and start extending those scripts for tasks that we haven't dreamed of. Perl for System Adminstration doesn't attempt to teach the Perl language, but it is an excellent introduction to the power and flexibility of Perl, and it whets the appetite to learn more. It's for anyone who needs to use Perl for system administration and needs to hit the ground running.

Learning Perl 3rd Edition

2:32 PM sridhar

Description : The third edition of Learning Perl has not only been updated for Perl 5.6, but has also been rewritten from the ground up to reflect the needs of programmers learning Perl today. Informed by their years of success at teaching Perl as consultants, the authors have re-engineered the book to better match the pace and scope appropriate for readers trying to get started with Perl, while retaining the detailed discussion, thorough examples, and eclectic wit for which the book is famous.

This edition of the Llama includes an expanded and more gently-paced introduction to regular expressions, new exercises and solutions designed so readers can practice what they've learned while it's still fresh in their minds, and an overall reworking to bring Learning Perl into the new millennium.

Perl is a language for getting your job done. Other books may teach you to program in Perl, but this book will turn you into a Perl programmer.

Perl In A Nutshell

12:14 PM sridhar

Description : Perl in a Nutshell strives to be a perfect set of socket tools for the active Perl programmer. By and large, it succeeds, providing endless and well-thought-out lists and tables on the language's modules, flags, and extensions. The authors briefly address basic learner's questions--such as the difference between a hash and an array--but these concepts are not the purpose of the book. (Those new to Perl would be better off with others in the O'Reilly Perl series, such as Learning Perl, while programmers making the switch to Perl can pick up the nuances of the language with Programming Perl.) This book is pure Perl reference, briefly covering Perl/Tk (for GUI Perl programs on Unix and Windows 95/NT) and Perl for Win 32. The authors do start at the very beginning, and even in a self-described "desktop quick reference" find the time to comment on less urgent--but still interesting--Perl-related matters (like how to find online help amidst the "Perl culture"). The format of the book makes sections on topics such as Perl debugging easily understandable, illustrating how to make an interactive and timesaving environment.

Of particular convenience is the outstanding section on the standard Perl modules. A four-page "quick look" allows you to easily scan through short definitions of all the modules and find the entry you're looking for. An index with full definitions for each module follows, showing you how to use each module and providing a more in-depth explanation (and often, examples). Perl in a Nutshell concludes--as you might expect--with an excellent and well-cross-referenced index.

PC Magazine Programming Perl 5.0 CGI Web Pages for Microsoft Windows NT

10:52 AM sridhar

Description : While this book demonstrates how Perl is used to give Web pages more depth in their interactivity, Perl wasn't created to do this. It was originally created because someone wanted to make their job of administering a large network a little easier. All the programming tools available then didn't work as well as he or she needed them to, so out popped Perl. The man who created Perl was Larry Wall. Perl stands for Practical Extraction and Report Language. Some time ago Larry Wall wanted to develop a better way to create debugging reports. He was working in the UNIX operating system trying to produce bug reports from a Usenet-new-like hierarchy of files. He first tried the UNIX utility awk to do this, but he couldn't get the results he needed. Awk is a common UNIX utility that uses regular expressions to manipulate and process text. Building on this application, Wall developed the first version of Perl. This new tool proved handier than he had first anticipated, so he gave copies of this new language to some other UNIX programmers. They worked with Perl and made it perform more tasks. Wall then developed Perl to a state where he could release it as a general systems administrator utility for the greater UNIX world.

Advanced Perl Programming

10:10 PM sridhar

Description : So you've learned Perl, but you're getting frustrated. Perhaps you've taken on a larger project than the ones you're used to. Or you want to add a user interface or a networking component. Or you need to do more complicated error trapping.
Whether your knowledge of Perl is casual or deep, this book will make you a more accomplished programmer. Here you can learn the complex techniques for production-ready Perl programs. This book explains methods for manipulating data and objects that may have looked like magic before. Furthermore, it sets Perl in the context of a larger environment, giving you the background you need for dealing with networks, databases, and GUIs. The discussion of internals helps you program more efficiently and embed Perl within C or C within Perl.

Major topics covered include:

Practical use of packages and classes (object-oriented programming)
Complex data structures
Persistence (e.g., using a database)
Networking
Graphical interfaces, using the Tk toolkit
Interaction with C language functions
Embedding and extending the Perl interpreter
In addition, the book patiently explains all sorts of language details you've always wanted to know more about, such as the use of references, trapping errors through the eval operator, non-blocking I/O, when closures are helpful, and using ties to trigger actions when data is accessed. You will emerge from this book a better hacker, and a proud master of Perl.
