Parsing a variable
Can someone help me? I have been looking in the archives as I am sure this is very simple to do, but I do not know.
I have a variable which sometimes contains a file name and sometimes contains a fully qualified file name.
I want to be able to separate the directory from the file name into 2 different variables:
For example
/app/myapp/bin/my.sql
would give me back a path of: /app/myapp/bin
and a file name of: my.sql
Thank you,
Your help is appreciated.

plack::app::cgibin
Plack::App::CGIBin(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Plack::App::CGIBin(3pm)
NAME
Plack::App::CGIBin - cgi-bin replacement for Plack servers
SYNOPSIS
use Plack::App::CGIBin;
use Plack::Builder;
my $app = Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/path/to/cgi-bin")->to_app;
builder {
mount "/cgi-bin" => $app;
};
# Or from the command line
plackup -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e 'Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/path/to/cgi-bin")->to_app'
DESCRIPTION
Plack::App::CGIBin allows you to load CGI scripts from a directory and convert them into a PSGI application.
This would give you the extreme easiness when you have bunch of old CGI scripts that is loaded using cgi-bin of Apache web server.
HOW IT WORKS
This application checks if a given file path is a perl script and if so, uses CGI::Compile to compile a CGI script into a sub (like
ModPerl::Registry) and then run it as a persistent application using CGI::Emulate::PSGI.
If the given file is not a perl script, it executes the script just like a normal CGI script with fork & exec. This is like a normal web
server mode and no performance benefit is achieved.
The default mechanism to determine if a given file is a Perl script is as follows:
o Check if the filename ends with ".pl". If yes, it is a Perl script.
o Open the file and see if the shebang (first line of the file) contains the word "perl" (like "#!/usr/bin/perl"). If yes, it is a Perl
script.
You can customize this behavior by passing "exec_cb" callback, which takes a file path to its first argument.
For example, if your perl-based CGI script uses lots of global variables and such and are not ready to run on a persistent environment, you
can do:
my $app = Plack::App::CGIBin->new(
root => "/path/to/cgi-bin",
exec_cb => sub { 1 },
)->to_app;
to always force the execute option for any files.
