NAME

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment - Deploying Catalyst

DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS

       Catalyst applications are most often deployed as a FastCGI or mod_perl application (with FastCGI being the recommended option). However, as
       Catalyst is based on the PSGI specification, any web handler implementing that specification can be used to run Catalyst applications.

       This documentation most thoroughly covers the normal and traditional deployment options, but will mention alternate methods of deployment,
       and we welcome additional documentation from people deploying Catalyst in non-standard environments.

   Deployment in a shared hosting environment
       Almost all shared hosting environments involve deploying Catalyst as a FastCGI application on Apache. You will usually want to have a set
       of libraries specific to your application installed on your shared host.

       Full details of deploying Catalyst in a shared hosting environment are at Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::SharedHosting.

   FastCGI
       FastCGI is the most common Catalyst deployment option. It is documented generally in Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::FastCGI, and there are
       specific instructions for using FastCGI with common web servers below:

       Apache

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::Apache::FastCGI

       nginx

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::nginx::FastCGI

       lighttpd

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::lighttpd::FastCGI

       Microsoft IIS

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::IIS::FastCGI

   mod_perl
       Traditionally a common deployment option for dedicated applications, mod_perl has some advantages and disadvantages over FastCGI. Use of
       mod_perl is documented in Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::Apache::mod_perl.

   Development Server
       It is possible to deploy the Catalyst development server behind a reverse proxy. This may work well for small-scale applications which are
       in an early development phase, but which you want to be able to show to people. See Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::DevelopmentServer.

   PSGI
       Catalyst can be deployed with any PSGI-compliant handler. See Catalyst::PSGI for more information; a list of possible deployment servers
       are shown below:

       Starman

       Starman is a high-performance Perl server implementation, which is designed to be used directly (rather than behind a reverse proxy). It
       includes HTTP/1.1 support, chunked requests and responses, keep-alive, and pipeline requests.

       Starlet

       Starlet is a standalone HTTP/1.0 server with keepaXXalive support which is suitable for running HTTP application servers behind a reverse
       proxy.

       Twiggy

       Twiggy is a high-performance asynchronous web server. It can be used in conjunction with Catalyst, but there are a number of caveats which
       mean that it is not suitable for most deployments.

   Chef
       <LChef|http://www.opscode.com/chef/> is an open-source systems integration framework built specifically for automating cloud computing
       deployments. A Cookbooks demonstrating how to deploy a Catalyst application using Chef is available at
       <http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/catalyst> and http://github.com/melezhik/cookbooks/wiki/Catalyst-cookbook-intro
       <http://github.com/melezhik/cookbooks/wiki/Catalyst-cookbook-intro>.

NAME

       Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::lighttpd::FastCGI - Deploying Catalyst with lighttpd

Lighttpd
       These configurations were tested with Lighttpd 1.4.7.

   Standalone server mode
	   server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root"

	   fastcgi.server = (
	       "" => (
		   "MyApp" => (
		       "socket"      => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
		       "check-local" => "disable"
		   )
	       )
	   )

   Static mode
	   server.document-root = "/var/www/MyApp/root"

	   fastcgi.server = (
	       "" => (
		   "MyApp" => (
		       "socket"       => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
		       "check-local"  => "disable",
		       "bin-path"     => "/var/www/MyApp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl",
		       "min-procs"    => 2,
		       "max-procs"    => 5,
		       "idle-timeout" => 20
		   )
	       )
	   )

       Note that in newer versions of lighttpd, the min-procs and idle-timeout values are disabled.  The above example would start 5 processes.

   Non-root configuration
       You can also run your application at any non-root location with either of the above modes.  Note the required mod_rewrite rule.

	   url.rewrite = ( "myapp$" => "myapp/" )
	   fastcgi.server = (
	       "/myapp" => (
		   "MyApp" => (
		       # same as above
		   )
	       )
	   )

       For more information on using FastCGI under Lighttpd, visit <http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html>

   Static file handling
       Static files can be served directly by lighttpd for a performance boost.

	  $HTTP["url"] !~ "^/(?:img/|static/|css/|favicon.ico$)" {
		fastcgi.server = (
		    "" => (
			"MyApp" => (
			    "socket"	   => "/tmp/myapp.socket",
			    "check-local"  => "disable",
			)
		    )
		)
	   }

       This will serve everything in the "img", "static", and "css" directories statically, as well as the favicon file.
