NAMEPerlbal::Plugin::Cgilike − Handle Perlbal requests with a Perl subroutine

DESCRIPTIONThis module allows responses to be handled with a simple API that's similar in principle to ​CGI, mod_perl response handlers, etc. It does not, however, come anywhere close to conforming to the CGI standard. It's actually more like mod_perl in usage, though there are several differences. Most notably, Perlbal is single-process and single-threaded, and handlers run inside the Perlbal process and must therefore return quickly and not do any blocking operations. As it currently stands, this is very bare-bones and has only really been used with basic GET requests. It lacks a nice API for handling the body of a POST or PUT request. It is not recommended to use this for extensive applications. Perlbal is first and foremost a load balancer, so if you're doing something at all complicated you're probably better off using something like Apache mod_perl and then putting Perlbal in front if it if necessary. However, this plugin may prove useful for simple handlers or perhaps embedding a simple ​HTTP service into another application that uses Danga::Socket.

SYNOPSISThis module provides a Perlbal plugin which can be loaded and used as follows. ​ LOAD cgilike ​ PERLREQUIRE = MyPackage ​ ​ CREATE SERVICE cgilike ​ SET role = web_server ​ SET listen = 127.0.0.1:80 ​ SET plugins = cgilike ​ PERLHANDLER = MyPackage::handler ​ ENABLE cgilike With this plugin loaded into a particular service, the plugin will then be called for all requests for that service. Set cgilike.handler to the name of a subroutine that will handle requests. This subroutine will receive an object which allows interaction with the Perlbal service. ​ package MyPackage ​ sub handler { ​ my ($r) = @_; ​ if ($r−>uri eq '/') { ​ print "<p>Hello, world</p>"; ​ return Perlbal::Plugin::Cgilike::HANDLED; ​ } ​ else { ​ return 404; ​ }} Return Perlbal::Plugin::Cgilike::HANDLED to indicate that the request has been handled, or return some HTTP error code to produce a predefined error message. You may also return Perlbal::Plugin::Cgilike::DECLINED if you do not wish to handle the request, in which case Perlbal will be allowed to handle the request in whatever way it would have done without Cgilike loaded. If your handler returns any non-success value, it MUST NOT produce any output. If you produce output before returning such a value, the response to the client is likely to be utter nonsense. You may also return Perlbal::Plugin::Cgilike::POSTPONE_RESPONSE, which is equivalent to returning zero except that the HTTP connection will be left open once you return. It is your responsibility to later call $r−>end_response() when you have completed the response. This style is necessary when you need to perform some long operation before you can return a response; you'll need to use some appropriate method to set a callback to run when the operation completes and then do your response in the callback. Once you've called end_response, you must not call any further methods on $r; it's probably safest to just return immediately afterwards to avoid any mishaps.

API DOCUMENTATIONTODO: Write this

TODOCurrently there is no API for dealing with the body of a POST or PUT request. Ideally it'd be able to do automatic decoding of application/x−www−form−urlencoded data, too. The POSTPONE_RESPONSE functionality has not been tested extensively and is probably buggy.
