(Of course you might be able to use ppm directly inside your script, but I don't know if you can integrate calls to it into a script like you can with CPAN.)

All ppm (as most of us know it) is a fancy wrapper for PPM.pm (alt.) much like the CPAN(PLUS) shell, so one just needs to use the module directly if you need to embed in, say, a CGI ...

use PPM;

my $ppd = shift;
my $dir = 'c:/inetpub/wwwroot/www.foo.com/';

PPM::InstallPackage(
  package => $ppd,
  root    => $dir,
);

Then it's just a matter of slapping use lib 'c:/inetpub/wwwroot/www.foo.com/site/lib'; to the top of all your scripts.
