# Install required Perl modules
# Create HPR database
Installing the Perl modules is the most finicky part of the installation process.
The needed Perl modules can be found using the operating systems's package
manager or using the modules found in the
[Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (CPAN)](https://www.cpan.org/).
## Installing modules on Debian based Linux distributions
Run command (tested on Debian 11):
```
apt install libconfig-std-perl \
libtemplate-perl \
libtemplate-plugin-dbi-perl \
libdbd-sqlite3-perl libdate-calc-perl \
libtie-dbi-perl
```
## Using CPAN to install the modules
A cross platform method to install the needed modules is Perl CPAN application.
Make sure both the [make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html)
command and the [cpan](https://perldoc.perl.org/CPAN) command are available.
Install them using the operating system's package manager, or from source.
Run commands:
```
cpan Config::Std
cpan Template
cpan Template::Plugin::DBI
cpan DBD::SQLite
cpan Date::Calc
cpan Tie::DBI
```
