NAME

       JSON::RPC::Server - Perl implementation of JSON-RPC sever

SYNOPSIS

	# CGI version
	use JSON::RPC::Server::CGI;

	my $server = JSON::RPC::Server::CGI->new;

	$server->dispatch_to('MyApp')->handle();

	# Apache version
	# In apache conf

	PerlRequire /your/path/start.pl
	PerlModule MyApp

	<Location /jsonrpc/API>
	     SetHandler perl-script
	     PerlResponseHandler JSON::RPC::Server::Apache
	     PerlSetVar dispatch "MyApp"
	     PerlSetVar return_die_message 0
	</Location>

	# Daemon version
	use JSON::RPC::Server::Daemon;

	JSON::RPC::Server::Daemon->new(LocalPort => 8080);
				 ->dispatch({'/jsonrpc/API' => 'MyApp'})
				 ->handle();

	# FastCGI version
	use JSON::RPC::Server::FastCGI;

	my $server = JSON::RPC::Server::FastCGI->new;

	   $server->dispatch_to('MyApp')->handle();

DESCRIPTION

       Gets a client request.

       Parses its JSON data.

       Passes the server object and the object decoded from the JSON data to your procedure (method).

       Takes your returned value (scalar or arrayref or hashref).

       Sends a response.

       Well, you write your procedure code only.

METHODS

       new Creates new JSON::RPC::Server object.

       dispatch($package)
       dispatch([$package1, $package1, ...])
       dispatch({$path => $package, ...})
	   Sets your procedure module using package name list or arrayref or hashref.  Hashref version is used for path_info access.

       dispatch_to
	   An alias to "dispatch".

       handle
	   Runs server object and returns a response.

       raise_error(%hash)
	    return $server->raise_error(
	       code => 501,
	       message => "This is error in my procedure."
	    );

	   Sets an error.  An error code number in your procedure is an integer between 501 and 899.

       json
	   Setter/Getter to json encoder/decoder object.  The default value is JSON object in the below way:

	    JSON->new->utf8

	   In your procedure, changes its behaviour.

	    $server->json->utf8(0);

	   The JSON coder creating method is  "create_json_coder".

       version
	   Setter/Getter to JSON-RPC protocol version used by a client.  If version is 1.1, returns 1.1. Otherwise returns 0.

       charset
	   Setter/Getter to cahrset.  Default is 'UTF-8'.

       content_type
	   Setter/Getter to content type.  Default is 'application/json'.

       return_die_message
	   When your program dies in your procedure, sends a return object with errror message 'Procedure error' by default.

	   If this option is set, uses "die" message.

	    sub your_procedure {
		my ($s) = @_;
	       $s->return_die_message(1);
	       die "This is test.";
	    }

       retrieve_json_from_post
	   It is used by JSON::RPC::Server subclass.

       retrieve_json_from_get
	   In the protocol v1.1, 'GET' request method is also allowable.

	   It is used by JSON::RPC::Server subclass.

       response
	   It is used by JSON::RPC::Server subclass.

       request
	   Returns HTTP::Request object.

       path_info
	   Returns PATH_INFO.

       max_length
	   Returns max content-length to your application.

       translate_error_message
	   Implemented in your subclass.  Three arguments (server object, error code and error message) are passed.  It must return a message.

	    sub translate_error_message {
		my ($s, $code, $message) = @_;
		return $translation_jp_message{$code};
	    }

       create_json_coder
	   (Class method) Returns a JSON de/encoder in "new".  You can override it to use your favorite JSON de/encode.

RESERVED PROCEDURE

       When a client call a procedure (method) name 'system.foobar', JSON::RPC::Server look up MyApp::system::foobar.

       <http://json-rpc.org/wd/JSON-RPC-1-1-WD-20060807.html#ProcedureCall>

       <http://json-rpc.org/wd/JSON-RPC-1-1-WD-20060807.html#ServiceDescription>

       There is JSON::RPC::Server::system::describe for default response of 'system.describe'.
