36 | |
37 | =head1 WARNING |
38 | |
8c4ffad3 |
39 | This is really quite new. If you're reading this on CPAN, it means the stuff |
40 | that's here we're probably happy with. But only probably. So we may have to |
41 | change stuff. And if you're reading this from git, come check with irc.perl.org |
42 | #web-simple that we're actually sure we're going to keep anything that's |
43 | different from the CPAN version. |
7401408e |
44 | |
8c4ffad3 |
45 | If we do find we have to change stuff we'll add to the |
46 | L<CHANGES BETWEEN RELEASES> section explaining how to switch your code across |
47 | to the new version, and we'll do our best to make it as painless as possible |
48 | because we've got Web::Simple applications too. But we can't promise not to |
49 | change things at all. Not yet. Sorry. |

80 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
7401408e |
81 | |
3895385d |
82 | The philosophy of L<Web::Simple> is to keep to an absolute bare minimum, for |
7401408e |
83 | everything. It is not designed to be used for large scale applications; |
84 | the L<Catalyst> web framework already works very nicely for that and is |
85 | a far more mature, well supported piece of software. |
86 | |
87 | However, if you have an application that only does a couple of things, and |
3895385d |
88 | want to not have to think about complexities of deployment, then L<Web::Simple> |
7401408e |
89 | might be just the thing for you. |
90 | |
7401408e |
91 | The only public interface the Web::Simple module itself provides is an |
fb771406 |
92 | import based one: |
7401408e |
93 | |
94 | use Web::Simple 'NameOfApplication'; |
95 | |
3895385d |
96 | This setups up your package (in this case "NameOfApplication" is your package) |
97 | so that it inherits from L<Web::Simple::Application> and imports L<strictures>, |
98 | as well as installs a C<PSGI_ENV> constant for convenience, as well as some |
99 | other subroutines. |
100 | |
101 | Importing L<strictures> will automatically make you code use the C<strict> and |
102 | C<warnings> pragma, so you can skip the usual: |
7401408e |
103 | |
104 | use strict; |
3895385d |
105 | use warnings FATAL => 'aa'; |
7401408e |
106 | |
107 | provided you 'use Web::Simple' at the top of the file. Note that we turn |
108 | on *fatal* warnings so if you have any warnings at any point from the file |
109 | that you did 'use Web::Simple' in, then your application will die. This is, |
110 | so far, considered a feature. |
111 | |
3895385d |
112 | When we inherit from L<Web::Simple::Application> we also use <Moo>, which is |
113 | the the equivalent of: |
7401408e |
114 | |
115 | { |
116 | package NameOfApplication; |
445b3ea0 |
117 | use Moo; |
118 | extends 'Web::Simple::Application'; |
7401408e |
119 | } |
120 | |
445b3ea0 |
121 | It also exports the following subroutines for use in dispatchers: |
7401408e |
122 | |
74afe4b7 |
123 | response_filter { ... }; |
7401408e |
124 | |
125 | redispatch_to '/somewhere'; |
126 | |
b7063124 |
127 | Finally, import sets |
128 | |
129 | $INC{"NameOfApplication.pm"} = 'Set by "use Web::Simple;" invocation'; |
130 | |
131 | so that perl will not attempt to load the application again even if |
132 | |
133 | require NameOfApplication; |
134 | |
135 | is encountered in other code. |
136 | |

137 | =head1 DISPATCH STRATEGY |
138 | |
3895385d |
139 | L<Web::Simple> dispite being straightforward to use, has a powerful system |
140 | for matching all sorts of incoming URLs to one or more subroutines. These |
141 | subroutines can be simple actions to take for a given URL, or something |
142 | more complicated, including entire L<Plack> applications, L<Plack::Middleware> |
143 | and nested subdispatchers. |
144 | |

145 | =head2 Examples |
146 | |
445b3ea0 |
147 | sub dispatch_request { |
c21c9f07 |
148 | # matches: GET /user/1.htm?show_details=1 |
149 | # GET /user/1.htm |
150 | sub (GET + /user/* + ?show_details~ + .htm|.html|.xhtml) { |
c254b30e |
151 | my ($self, $user_id, $show_details) = @_; |
c21c9f07 |
152 | ... |
153 | }, |
154 | # matches: POST /user?username=frew |
155 | # POST /user?username=mst&first_name=matt&last_name=trout |
156 | sub (POST + /user + ?username=&*) { |
c254b30e |
157 | my ($self, $username, $misc_params) = @_; |
c21c9f07 |
158 | ... |
159 | }, |
160 | # matches: DELETE /user/1/friend/2 |
161 | sub (DELETE + /user/*/friend/*) { |
c254b30e |
162 | my ($self, $user_id, $friend_id) = @_; |
c21c9f07 |
163 | ... |
164 | }, |
165 | # matches: PUT /user/1?first_name=Matt&last_name=Trout |
166 | sub (PUT + /user/* + ?first_name~&last_name~) { |
c254b30e |
167 | my ($self, $user_id, $first_name, $last_name) = @_; |
c21c9f07 |
168 | ... |
169 | }, |
170 | sub (/user/*/...) { |
445b3ea0 |
171 | my $user_id = $_[1]; |
172 | # matches: PUT /user/1/role/1 |
173 | sub (PUT + /role/*) { |
174 | my $role_id = $_[1]; |
175 | ... |
176 | }, |
177 | # matches: DELETE /user/1/role/1 |
178 | sub (DELETE + /role/*) { |
179 | my $role_id = $_[1]; |
180 | ... |
181 | }, |
c21c9f07 |
182 | }, |
183 | } |
184 | |

185 | =head2 The dispatch cycle |
81a5b03e |
186 | |
3706e2a0 |
187 | At the beginning of a request, your app's dispatch_request method is called |
188 | with the PSGI $env as an argument. You can handle the request entirely in |
189 | here and return a PSGI response arrayref if you want: |
81a5b03e |
190 | |
3706e2a0 |
191 | sub dispatch_request { |
192 | my ($self, $env) = @_; |
193 | [ 404, [ 'Content-type' => 'text/plain' ], [ 'Amnesia == fail' ] ] |
194 | } |
81a5b03e |
195 | |
3706e2a0 |
196 | However, generally, instead of that, you return a set of dispatch subs: |
81a5b03e |
197 | |
3706e2a0 |
198 | sub dispatch_request { |
199 | my $self = shift; |
200 | sub (/) { redispatch_to '/index.html' }, |
201 | sub (/user/*) { $self->show_user($_[1]) }, |
202 | ... |
203 | } |
81a5b03e |
204 | |
3706e2a0 |
205 | If you return a subroutine with a prototype, the prototype is treated |
206 | as a match specification - and if the test is passed, the body of the |
207 | sub is called as a method any matched arguments (see below for more details). |
81a5b03e |
208 | |
3706e2a0 |
209 | You can also return a plain subroutine which will be called with just $env |
210 | - remember that in this case if you need $self you -must- close over it. |
81a5b03e |
211 | |
3895385d |
212 | If you return a normal object, L<Web::Simple> will simply return it upwards on |
213 | the assumption that a response_filter (or some arbitrary L<Plack::Middleware>) |
214 | somewhere will convert it to something useful. This allows: |
81a5b03e |
215 | |
3706e2a0 |
216 | sub dispatch_request { |
217 | my $self = shift; |
218 | sub (.html) { response_filter { $self->render_zoom($_[0]) } }, |
219 | sub (/user/*) { $self->users->get($_[1]) }, |
220 | } |
81a5b03e |
221 | |
3895385d |
222 | to render a user object to HTML, if there is an incoming URL such as: |
223 | |
224 | http://myweb.org/user/111.html |
225 | |
226 | This works because as we descend down the dispachers, we first match |
227 | C<sub (.html)>, which adds a C<response_filter> (basically a specialized routine |
228 | that follows the L<Plack::Middleware> specification), and then later we also |
229 | match C<sub (/user/*)> which gets a user and returns that as the response. |
230 | This user object 'bubbles up' through all the wrapping middleware until it hits |
231 | the C<response_filter> we defined, after which the return is converted to a |
232 | true html response. |
81a5b03e |
233 | |
3706e2a0 |
234 | However, two types of object are treated specially - a Plack::App object |
3895385d |
235 | will have its C<->to_app> method called and be used as a dispatcher: |
81a5b03e |
236 | |
3706e2a0 |
237 | sub dispatch_request { |
238 | my $self = shift; |
239 | sub (/static/...) { Plack::App::File->new(...) }, |
240 | ... |
81a5b03e |
241 | } |
242 | |
3706e2a0 |
243 | A Plack::Middleware object will be used as a filter for the rest of the |
244 | dispatch being returned into: |
81a5b03e |
245 | |
6af22ff2 |
246 | ## responds to /admin/track_usage AND /admin/delete_accounts |
247 | |
3706e2a0 |
248 | sub dispatch_request { |
249 | my $self = shift; |
6af22ff2 |
250 | sub (/admin/**) { |
251 | Plack::Middleware::Session->new(%opts); |
252 | }, |
253 | sub (/admin/track_usage) { |
254 | ## something that needs a session |
255 | }, |
256 | sub (/admin/delete_accounts) { |
257 | ## something else that needs a session |
258 | }, |
81a5b03e |
259 | } |
260 | |
3706e2a0 |
261 | Note that this is for the dispatch being -returned- to, so if you want to |
262 | provide it inline you need to do: |
81a5b03e |
263 | |
6af22ff2 |
264 | ## ALSO responds to /admin/track_usage AND /admin/delete_accounts |
265 | |
3706e2a0 |
266 | sub dispatch_request { |
267 | my $self = shift; |
3706e2a0 |
268 | sub (/admin/...) { |
6af22ff2 |
269 | sub { |
270 | Plack::Middleware::Session->new(%opts); |
271 | }, |
272 | sub (/track_usage) { |
273 | ## something that needs a session |
274 | }, |
275 | sub (/delete_accounts) { |
276 | ## something else that needs a session |
277 | }, |
3706e2a0 |
278 | } |
81a5b03e |
279 | } |
280 | |
3706e2a0 |
281 | And that's it - but remember that all this happens recursively - it's |
3895385d |
282 | dispatchers all the way down. A URL incoming pattern will run all matching |
283 | dispatchers and then hit all added filters or L<Plack::Middleware>. |
3706e2a0 |

81a5b03e |
285 | =head2 Web::Simple match specifications |
286 | |
287 | =head3 Method matches |
288 | |
93e30ba3 |
289 | sub (GET) { |
15dfe701 |
290 | |
291 | A match specification beginning with a capital letter matches HTTP requests |
292 | with that request method. |
293 | |
81a5b03e |
294 | =head3 Path matches |
295 | |
15dfe701 |
296 | sub (/login) { |
297 | |
298 | A match specification beginning with a / is a path match. In the simplest |
299 | case it matches a specific path. To match a path with a wildcard part, you |
300 | can do: |
301 | |
302 | sub (/user/*) { |
303 | $self->handle_user($_[1]) |
304 | |
305 | This will match /user/<anything> where <anything> does not include a literal |
306 | / character. The matched part becomes part of the match arguments. You can |
307 | also match more than one part: |
308 | |
309 | sub (/user/*/*) { |
310 | my ($self, $user_1, $user_2) = @_; |
311 | |
312 | sub (/domain/*/user/*) { |
313 | my ($self, $domain, $user) = @_; |
314 | |
315 | and so on. To match an arbitrary number of parts, use - |
316 | |
317 | sub (/page/**) { |
318 | |
319 | This will result in an element per /-separated part so matched. Note that |
320 | you can do |
321 | |
322 | sub (/page/**/edit) { |
323 | |
324 | to match an arbitrary number of parts up to but not including some final |
325 | part. |
326 | |
da8429c9 |
327 | Finally, |
328 | |
329 | sub (/foo/...) { |
330 | |
331 | will match /foo/ on the beginning of the path -and- strip it, much like |
332 | .html strips the extension. This is designed to be used to construct |
333 | nested dispatch structures, but can also prove useful for having e.g. an |
334 | optional language specification at the start of a path. |
335 | |
336 | Note that the '...' is a "maybe something here, maybe not" so the above |
337 | specification will match like this: |
338 | |
339 | /foo # no match |
340 | /foo/ # match and strip path to '/' |
341 | /foo/bar/baz # match and strip path to '/bar/baz' |
342 | |
81a5b03e |
343 | =head3 Extension matches |
344 | |
15dfe701 |
345 | sub (.html) { |
346 | |
347 | will match and strip .html from the path (assuming the subroutine itself |
348 | returns something, of course). This is normally used for rendering - e.g. |
349 | |
350 | sub (.html) { |
74afe4b7 |
351 | response_filter { $self->render_html($_[1]) } |
15dfe701 |
352 | } |
353 | |
b8bd7bd1 |
354 | Additionally, |
355 | |
356 | sub (.*) { |
357 | |
358 | will match any extension and supplies the stripped extension as a match |
359 | argument. |
360 | |
9b9866ae |
361 | =head3 Query and body parameter matches |
362 | |
363 | Query and body parameters can be match via |
364 | |
365 | sub (?<param spec>) { # match URI query |
366 | sub (%<param spec>) { # match body params |
367 | |
368 | The body is only matched if the content type is |
369 | application/x-www-form-urlencoded (note this means that Web::Simple does |
370 | not yet handle uploads; this will be addressed in a later release). |
371 | |
372 | The param spec is elements of one of the following forms - |
373 | |
374 | param~ # optional parameter |
375 | param= # required parameter |
376 | @param~ # optional multiple parameter |
377 | @param= # required multiple parameter |
eb9e0e25 |
378 | :param~ # optional parameter in hashref |
379 | :param= # required parameter in hashref |
380 | :@param~ # optional multiple in hashref |
381 | :@param= # required multiple in hashref |
382 | * # include all other parameters in hashref |
383 | @* # include all other parameters as multiple in hashref |
9b9866ae |
384 | |
eb9e0e25 |
385 | separated by the & character. The arguments added to the request are |
386 | one per non-:/* parameter (scalar for normal, arrayref for multiple), |
387 | plus if any :/* specs exist a hashref containing those values. |
9b9866ae |
388 | |
3895385d |
389 | Please note that if you specify a multiple type parameter match, you are |
390 | ensured of getting an arrayref for the value, EVEN if the current incoming |
391 | request has only one value. However if a parameter is specified as single |
392 | and multiple values are found, the last one will be used. |
393 | |
394 | For example to match a page parameter with an optional order_by parameter one |
9b9866ae |
395 | would write: |
396 | |
397 | sub (?page=&order_by~) { |
eb9e0e25 |
398 | my ($self, $page, $order_by) = @_; |
399 | return unless $page =~ /^\d+$/; |
400 | $page ||= 'id'; |
9b9866ae |
401 | response_filter { |
402 | $_[1]->search_rs({}, $p); |
403 | } |
404 | } |
405 | |
406 | to implement paging and ordering against a L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet> object. |
407 | |
3895385d |
408 | Another Example: To get all parameters as a hashref of arrayrefs, write: |
eb9e0e25 |
409 | |
410 | sub(?@*) { |
411 | my ($self, $params) = @_; |
412 | ... |
413 | |
8c4ffad3 |
414 | To get two parameters as a hashref, write: |
415 | |
416 | sub(?:user~&:domain~) { |
417 | my ($self, $params) = @_; # params contains only 'user' and 'domain' keys |
418 | |
419 | You can also mix these, so: |
420 | |
421 | sub (?foo=&@bar~&:coffee=&@*) { |
422 | my ($self, $foo, $bar, $params); |
423 | |
424 | where $bar is an arrayref (possibly an empty one), and $params contains |
425 | arrayref values for all parameters -not- mentioned and a scalar value for |
426 | the 'coffee' parameter. |
427 | |
3895385d |
428 | Note, in the case where you combine arrayref, single parameter and named |
429 | hashref style, the arrayref and single parameters will appear in C<@_> in the |
430 | order you defined them in the protoype, but all hashrefs will merge into a |
431 | single C<$params>, as in the example above. |

435 | Matches may be combined with the + character - e.g. |
436 | |
b8bd7bd1 |
437 | sub (GET + /user/*) { |
438 | |
439 | to create an AND match. They may also be combined withe the | character - e.g. |
440 | |
441 | sub (GET|POST) { |
442 | |
443 | to create an OR match. Matches can be nested with () - e.g. |
444 | |
445 | sub ((GET|POST) + /user/*) { |
446 | |
447 | and negated with ! - e.g. |
448 | |
449 | sub (!/user/foo + /user/*) { |
450 | |
451 | ! binds to the immediate rightmost match specification, so if you want |
452 | to negate a combination you will need to use |
453 | |
454 | sub ( !(POST|PUT|DELETE) ) { |
455 | |
456 | and | binds tighter than +, so |
457 | |
458 | sub ((GET|POST) + /user/*) { |
459 | |
460 | and |
461 | |
462 | sub (GET|POST + /user/*) { |
463 | |
464 | are equivalent, but |
465 | |
466 | sub ((GET + .html) | (POST + .html)) { |
467 | |
468 | and |
469 | |
470 | sub (GET + .html | POST + .html) { |
471 | |
472 | are not - the latter is equivalent to |
473 | |
474 | sub (GET + (.html|POST) + .html) { |
475 | |
3895385d |
476 | which will never match! |

478 | =head3 Whitespace |
15dfe701 |
479 | |
480 | Note that for legibility you are permitted to use whitespace - |
481 | |
44db8e76 |
482 | sub (GET + /user/*) { |
15dfe701 |
483 | |
b8bd7bd1 |
484 | but it will be ignored. This is because the perl parser strips whitespace |
485 | from subroutine prototypes, so this is equivalent to |
486 | |
487 | sub (GET+/user/*) { |

489 | =head3 Accessing the PSGI env hash |
490 | |
3706e2a0 |
491 | In some cases you may wish to get the raw PSGI env hash - to do this, |
492 | you can either use a plain sub - |
493 | |
494 | sub { |
495 | my ($env) = @_; |
496 | ... |
497 | } |
24175cb5 |
498 | |
3706e2a0 |
499 | or use the PSGI_ENV constant exported to retrieve it: |
c21c9f07 |
500 | |
3706e2a0 |
501 | sub (GET + /foo + ?some_param=) { |
502 | my $param = $_[1]; |
503 | my $env = $_[PSGI_ENV]; |
504 | } |
c21c9f07 |
505 | |
3706e2a0 |
506 | but note that if you're trying to add a middleware, you should simply use |
507 | Web::Simple's direct support for doing so. |

509 | =head1 EXPORTED SUBROUTINES |
c21c9f07 |
510 | |
511 | =head2 response_filter |
512 | |
513 | response_filter { |
514 | # Hide errors from the user because we hates them, preciousss |
445b3ea0 |
515 | if (ref($_[0]) eq 'ARRAY' && $_[0]->[0] == 500) { |
516 | $_[0] = [ 200, @{$_[0]}[1..$#{$_[0]}] ]; |
c21c9f07 |
517 | } |
445b3ea0 |
518 | return $_[0]; |
c21c9f07 |
519 | }; |
520 | |
521 | The response_filter subroutine is designed for use inside dispatch subroutines. |
522 | |
523 | It creates and returns a special dispatcher that always matches, and calls |
524 | the block passed to it as a filter on the result of running the rest of the |
525 | current dispatch chain. |
526 | |
527 | Thus the filter above runs further dispatch as normal, but if the result of |
528 | dispatch is a 500 (Internal Server Error) response, changes this to a 200 (OK) |
529 | response without altering the headers or body. |
530 | |
531 | =head2 redispatch_to |
532 | |
533 | redispatch_to '/other/url'; |
534 | |
535 | The redispatch_to subroutine is designed for use inside dispatch subroutines. |
536 | |
537 | It creates and returns a special dispatcher that always matches, and instead |
538 | of continuing dispatch re-delegates it to the start of the dispatch process, |
539 | but with the path of the request altered to the supplied URL. |
540 | |
950d8829 |
541 | Thus if you receive a POST to '/some/url' and return a redispatch to |
c21c9f07 |
542 | '/other/url', the dispatch behaviour will be exactly as if the same POST |
543 | request had been made to '/other/url' instead. |
544 | |
3895385d |
545 | Note, this is not the same as returning an HTTP 3xx redirect as a response; |
546 | rather it is a much more efficient internal process. |

548 | =head1 CHANGES BETWEEN RELEASES |
445b3ea0 |
549 | |
550 | =head2 Changes between 0.004 and 0.005 |
551 | |
552 | =over 4 |
553 | |
554 | =item * dispatch {} replaced by declaring a dispatch_request method |
555 | |
556 | dispatch {} has gone away - instead, you write: |
557 | |
558 | sub dispatch_request { |
e4122532 |
559 | my $self = shift; |
445b3ea0 |
560 | sub (GET /foo/) { ... }, |
561 | ... |
562 | } |
563 | |
564 | Note that this method is still -returning- the dispatch code - just like |
565 | dispatch did. |
566 | |
e4122532 |
567 | Also note that you need the 'my $self = shift' since the magic $self |
568 | variable went away. |
569 | |
570 | =item * the magic $self variable went away. |
571 | |
572 | Just add 'my $self = shift;' while writing your 'sub dispatch_request {' |
573 | like a normal perl method. |
574 | |
445b3ea0 |
575 | =item * subdispatch deleted - all dispatchers can now subdispatch |
576 | |
577 | In earlier releases you needed to write: |
578 | |
579 | subdispatch sub (/foo/...) { |
580 | ... |
581 | [ |
582 | sub (GET /bar/) { ... }, |
583 | ... |
584 | ] |
585 | } |
586 | |
587 | As of 0.005, you can instead write simply: |
588 | |
589 | sub (/foo/...) { |
590 | ... |
591 | ( |
592 | sub (GET /bar/) { ... }, |
593 | ... |
594 | ) |
595 | } |

596 | |
597 | =head2 Changes since Antiquated Perl |
598 | |
599 | =over 4 |
600 | |
601 | =item * filter_response renamed to response_filter |
602 | |
603 | This is a pure rename; a global search and replace should fix it. |
604 | |
c21c9f07 |
605 | =item * dispatch [] changed to dispatch {} |
8c4ffad3 |
606 | |
607 | Simply changing |
608 | |
609 | dispatch [ sub(...) { ... }, ... ]; |
610 | |
611 | to |
612 | |
613 | dispatch { sub(...) { ... }, ... }; |
614 | |
615 | should work fine. |

619 | =head1 DEVELOPMENT HISTORY |
620 | |
621 | Web::Simple was originally written to form part of my Antiquated Perl talk for |
622 | Italian Perl Workshop 2009, but in writing the bloggery example I realised |
623 | that having a bare minimum system for writing web applications that doesn't |
624 | drive me insane was rather nice and decided to spend my attempt at nanowrimo |
625 | for 2009 improving and documenting it to the point where others could use it. |
626 | |
