# ci-perl-build-ecs

A Docker configuration for Perl-based CHS services deployed to ECS.

## Build Tools

The following list details the build tools required by all CHS Perl-based services which will be installed in the container image:

- Perl 5.18.2 (compiled from source with the `-Dusethreads` flag)

- GNU libc 2.34

- Perlbrew 1.0.1

- GoPAN 0.12 (for dependency resolution when building `*-deps` projects)

> [!NOTE]

> Versions are correct at time of writing but may be subject to change as future versions of the container image are built.

## Dependencies

The following list details the distribution-managed packages installed in the container image and the reason for their inclusion:
