Install a PHP PEAR package or Perl module

Add a code library only when an application requires it.

Where Tools → Software → PHP PEAR Packages / Perl Modules

Before you start

Get the exact trusted package name and version requirements from the developer.
Check whether the project already manages dependencies another way. Do not mix approaches without a plan.

1

Open PHP PEAR Packages for a PEAR library, or Perl Modules for a Perl library. These are separate ecosystems.
2

Use Find a module to search by name, or Show Available Modules to browse the catalogue. Review the package identity and requirements before selecting an install action.
3

Review the installation result and dependencies. Test the application feature requiring the module. Remove or update a package only after checking whether another app uses it.
4

Review the Module Install Path and the page’s instructions for using installed modules. Account-local libraries may need their path added to the application configuration.

PEAR package search, installation path and install controls.
5

If you already know the exact package name, enter it in the install-by-name field and use Install Now only after checking it. This downloads and installs code into your account.

Perl Modules provides a separate library installer.
