HTTP::Server::Simple::User3Contributed Perl DocumeHTTP::Server::Simple::CGI(3)NAMEHTTP::Server::Simple::CGI - CGI.pm-style version of
HTTP::Server::Simple
DESCRIPTION
HTTP::Server::Simple was already simple, but some smart-ass pointed out
that there is no CGI in HTTP, and so this module was born to isolate
the CGI.pm-related parts of this handler.
accept_hook
The accept_hook in this sub-class clears the environment to the start-
up state.
post_setup_hook
Initializes the global CGI object, as well as other environment
settings.
cgi_class [Classname]
Gets or sets the class to use for creating the $cgi object passed to
"handle_request".
Called with a single argument, it sets the coderef. Called with no
arguments, it returns this field's current value.
To provide an initialization subroutine to be run in the
post_setup_hook, see "cgi_init".
e.g.
$server->cgi_class('CGI');
$server->cgi_init(sub {
require CGI;
CGI::initialize_globals();
});
or, if you want to use CGI::Simple,
$server->cgi_class('CGI::Simple');
$server->cgi_init(sub {
require CGI::Simple;
});
cgi_init [CODEREF]
A coderef to run in the post_setup_hook.
Called with a single argument, it sets the coderef. Called with no
arguments, it returns this field's current value.
setup
This method sets up CGI environment variables based on various meta-
headers, like the protocol, remote host name, request path, etc.
See the docs in HTTP::Server::Simple for more detail.
handle_request CGI
This routine is called whenever your server gets a request it can
handle.
It's called with a CGI object that's been pre-initialized. You want to
override this method in your subclass
