For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
How to download files in Perl

Posted by padawanlinuxero (padawanlinuxero), 27 December 2007
Hello !!!!
I have a script that needs help, I need to display some files from a folder and be able to download them with a simple link, if the link is click then it must appear the Save As screen, but until now only I have been able to open the folder and view the files like links but I can not download them
this is the code unitl now:


#!c:/perl/bin/perl.exe

use strict;
use CGI;


my $list = new CGI;

my $fileDir = "c:/files/err";
my @files;

opendir DIR, "$fileDir" or die "Can't open $fileDir $!";
   @files = grep { /\.(?:txt|zip|jpg|mp3|err|csv)$/i } readdir DIR;
closedir DIR;

print $list->header("text/html"),
     $list->start_html("Archivos in $fileDir"),
     $list->p("Estos son los archivos de $fileDir");

foreach my $file (@files) {
   print $list->p($list->a({-href=>$fileDir."/".$file},$file)
   );
   
}
print $list->end_html;

The CGI module has support for what you are trying to do. Look for the -attachment and -type options in the CGI module documentation under the CREATING A STANDARD HTTP HEADER: section. If you have further questions post them.
