Perldoc::Server is a Catalyst application to serve local Perl documentation in the same style as http://perldoc.perl.org.
In addition to keeping the same look and feel of http://perldoc.perl.org, Perldoc::Server offer the following features:
View source of any installed module
Improved syntax highlighting
Line numbering
use and require statements linked to modules
use
require
Sidebar shows links to your 10 most viewed documentation pages
By default, Perldoc::Server will show documentation for the Perl installation used to run the server.
However, it is also possible to serve documentation for a different Perl installation using the --perl command-line option, e.g.
--perl
perldoc-server --perl /usr/bin/perl
