Importing environment variables to Perl

Question

I\'m not sure if importing is the right word to use. I\'m a beginner in both Perl and Bash. I have set a variable on Bash, so when I do:

echo $PRDIR
         


        

Answer 1

Another solution to use the variable directly in perl :

In the shell :

$ export PRDIR=foobar

In perl :

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Modern::Perl;

use Env qw/PRDIR/;

say $PRDIR;
