HTTP::Server::Brick allows you to quickly wrap a prototype web server around some |
|---|
| 6 |
Perl code. The underlying server daemon is HTTP::Daemon and the performance should |
|---|
| 7 |
be fine for demo's, light internal systems, etc. |

INSTALLATION |
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 |
To install with Module::Build, you can use the following commands: |
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 |
perl Build.PL |

./Build |

./Build install |
|---|
| 19 |
|

| 20 |
Alternatively, run the following commands (Module::Build is still |
|---|
| 21 |
required, this is just a wrapper): |
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 |
perl Makefile.PL |
|---|
| 24 |
make |
|---|
| 25 |

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS |
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 |
It's version 0.1.3 - there's bound to be some bugs! |
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 |
The tests fail on windows due to forking limitations. I don't see any |
|---|
| 40 |
reason why the server itself won't work but I haven't tried it |
|---|
| 41 |
personally, and I have to figure out a way to test it from a test |
|---|
| 42 |
script that will work on Windows. |
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 |
In forking mode there is no attempt to limit the number of forked |
|---|
| 45 |
children - beware of forking yourself ;) |
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 |
No attention has been given to propagating any exception text into the |
|---|
| 48 |
http error (although the exception/die message will appear in the |
|---|
| 49 |
error_log). |
|---|
| 50 |
|
|---|
| 51 |
Versions 1.02 and earlier of HTTP::Daemon::SSL has a |
|---|
| 52 |
feature/documentation conflict where it will never timeout. This means |
|---|
| 53 |
your server won't respond to a HUP signal until the next request is |
|---|
| 54 |
served. Version 1.03_01 (developer release) and later do not have this |
|---|
| 55 |
issue. |
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 |
Latest versions are always available from CPAN. Development versions |
|---|
| 58 |
are available from my CVS repository: |
