38 This is a simple HTTP server for for use during development with
39 CGI::Application. At this moment, it serves our needs in a very basic
40 way. The plan is to release early and release often, and add features
41 when we need them. That said, we welcome any and all patches, tests and
42 feature requests (the ones with which are accompanied by failing tests
43 will get priority).
44
46 new ($port)
47 This acts just like "new" for HTTP::Server::Simple, except it will
48 initialize instance slots that we use.
49
50 handle_request
51 This will check the request uri and dispatch appropriately, either to
52 an entry point, or serve a static file (html, jpeg, gif, etc).
53
54 entry_points (?$entry_points)
55 This accepts a HASH reference in $entry_points, which maps server entry
56 points (uri) to CGI::Application or CGI::Application::Dispatch class
57 names or objects or to directories from which static content will be
58 served by HTTP::Server::Simple::Static. See the SYNOPSIS above for
59 examples.
60
61 is_valid_entry_point ($uri)
62 This attempts to match the $uri to an entry point.
63
64 document_root (?$document_root)
65 This is the server's document root where all static files will be
66 served from.
67
69 This is a subclass of HTTP::Server::Simple and all of its caveats apply
70 here as well.
71
73 The HTTP response handling was shamelessly stolen from
74 HTTP::Request::AsCGI by chansen
