Chilkat Module for Perl — Downloads
The latest Chilkat Perl module for Windows, Linux, Alpine Linux, and macOS. Install it with one command, or choose the build that matches your Perl version, operating system, and CPU architecture from the tables below.
Install with one command
The install-perl script reads your Perl's version, CPU architecture, threading,
and C library from the perl that runs it, downloads the matching build from this page, and
installs it into that same perl. There is no compiler step, no make, and no build
to pick by hand.
# Linux, Alpine Linux, macOS curl -fsSL https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | perl - # no curl? wget works the same way wget -qO- https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | perl - # Windows (Strawberry Perl), PowerShell or cmd -- note curl.exe curl.exe -fsSL https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | perl -
sudo.
The script checks first and says so if it cannot write there. Without root, add
--local to install under ~/perl5 for your user only:
# with curl curl -fsSL https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | sudo perl - # with wget wget -qO- https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | sudo perl - # per-user, no root needed curl -fsSL https://chilkatdownload.com/perl/install-perl | perl - --local
cpanm --mirror https://chilkatdownload.com/cpan --mirror-only ChilkatIt fetches the same prebuilt package at configure time and installs it through MakeMaker, so cpanm's usual options apply:
--sudo when the site library needs root, or
-l ~/perl5 for a per-user install; cpanm --uninstall Chilkat removes it. A specific release can be installed from its URL,
cpanm https://chilkatdownload.com/cpan/authors/id/C/CH/CHILKAT/Chilkat-<version>.tar.gz.
--dry-run shows what would be installed without changing anything. Options, the
manual download procedure, and
troubleshooting are on the install pages for
Linux & Alpine Linux,
macOS, and
Windows.
