What is the easiest way to download the contents of a URL with Perl?..

Answer / Amaresh Kumar

You can use the LWP::UserAgent module in Perl to fetch the content of a URL. Here's an example:nn``perlnuse LWP::UserAgent; my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(); my $response = $ua->get('http://example.com'); if ($response->is_success) { print $response->decoded_content } else { warn $response->status_line } ```
