Start the Interactive Ruby Shell , then run the command:

irb irb(main):001:0> require 'ffaker' => true exit

There is an example from the git repository :

irb irb(main):001:0> require 'ffaker' => true irb(main):002:0> FFaker::Name.name => "Danyelle Langosh" irb(main):003:0> FFaker::Internet.email => "[email protected]" irb(main):004:0>

    there is an example here , run cpan Data::Faker , create your sample.pl with the content of the synopsis then run perl sample.pl Commented Jul 29, 2017 at 12:13
  • What is the typical configuration for cpan installation? Options (Choose 'local::lib', 'sudo' or 'manual'). Sudo ok? Commented Aug 1, 2017 at 14:08
