SYNOPSIS

13         use CGI::Application::Server;
14         use MyCGIApp;
15         use MyCGIApp::Admin;
16         use MyCGI::App::Account::Dispatch;
17         use MyCGIApp::DefaultApp;
18
19         my $server = CGI::Application::Server->new();
20
21         # this CGI::Application object will stay persistent, might not be safe to use
22         # in this way - your mileage may vary
23         # http://www.mail-archive.com/cgiapp@lists.erlbaum.net/msg08997.html
24         my $object = MyOtherCGIApp->new(PARAMS => { foo => 1, bar => 2 });
25
26         $server->document_root('./htdocs');
27         $server->entry_points({
28             '/'          => 'MyCGIApp::DefaultApp',
29             '/index.cgi' => 'MyCGIApp',
30             '/admin'     => 'MyCGIApp::Admin',
31             '/account'   => 'MyCGIApp::Account::Dispatch',
32             '/users'     => $object,
33             '/static'    => '/usr/local/htdocs',
34         });

DESCRIPTION

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

METHODS

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

CAVEATS

69       This is a subclass of HTTP::Server::Simple and all of its caveats apply
70       here as well.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

73       The HTTP response handling was shamelessly stolen from
