Is there a core Perl module for SSL/TLS support?

Question

Does Perl support SSL/TLS via a core modules?

I am using HTTP::Tiny and want to fetch https url without installing any library and depending external libraries and XS.

Is there an option to let HTTP::Tiny to work with SSL without relying on OpenSSL, or is there any pure Perl module for fetching data with SSL out of the box without the need for XS modules?

Answer 1

SSL/TLS support is provided by Net::SSLeay and IO::Socket::SSL. Modules such as HTTP::Tiny and LWP interface with the OpenSSL routines via those layers.

There is no core or pure Perl module supporting HTTPS.
