NAME

       Web::Simple::Deployment - various deployment options

DESCRIPTION

       This file documents common deployment methods for Web::Simple. If you feel one is missing, please ask in the IRC channel and we'll work
       with you to add it.

CGI

       The most basic deployment option is as a CGI script loading and running your Web::Simple-module:

	 #!/usr/bin/env perl

	 use Your::Web::Simple::App;
	 Your::Web::Simple::App->run_if_script;

       Save that as script.cgi and your web server will handle it correctly.

Plack-Server
       This works in with exactly the same code as CGI deployment. However instead of letting your web server load script.cgi, you run this on the
       command line:

	 plackup script.cgi

   Self-contained CGI
       Sometimes your app is so small that you have only one or two tiny classes that you want to run as a CGI script. Web::Simple offers a
       helpful mechanism to achieve that.

	 #!/usr/bin/env perl

	 use Web::Simple 'HelloWorld';	 # enables strictures and warnings for the file
					 # additionally, HelloWorld is upgraded to a
					 # Web::Simple application
	 {
	   package HelloWorld;

	   sub dispatch_request {
	     sub (GET) {
	       [
		 200,
		 [ 'Content-type', 'text/plain' ],
		 [ 'Hello world! It is a fine ' . HelloWorld::Helper->day ]
	       ]
	     },
	     sub () {
	       [ 405, [ 'Content-type', 'text/plain' ], [ 'Method not allowed' ] ]
	     }
	   }
	 }

	 {
	   package HelloWorld::Helper;

	   use DateTime;

	   sub day {
	     return DateTime->now->day_name;
	   }
	 }

	 HelloWorld->run_if_script;
