You can use a batch file or (shockers) a perl script to automate your ppm tasks. The simplest batch approach might be a series of lines like:
ppm install YAML
If you want to get really fancy, you can set up your own ppm repository.

What you could do would be to set up your own PPM repository and make sure that it is on your DR tape along with the latest Perl install you want used. Then your DR instructions could simply include: 1) install Perl, 2) install Perl Modules from PPM repository (with explicit directions on how to do this). You might even be able to build this all into an EXE that will simply install Perl and all the modules required (though if you add modules, you will need to update the EXE every time). | [reply] |
I am not sure, but as I remember, Perl Dev Kit allows to include all used modules into a final ".exe" file and such files are not require Perl itself. | [reply] |
