CGI::ArgChecker - An extensible CGI parameter validation module (allowing
commonly used checks on parameters to be called more concisely and consistently)
based on String::Checker. This is really nothing more than a simple wrapper
around String::Checker.
CGI::Builder - Framework to build simple or complex web-apps
CGI::Cache is a perl extension to help cache output of time-intensive
CGI scripts so that subsequent visits to such scripts will not cost
as much time.
Compile .cgi scripts to a code reference like ModPerl::Registry.
Implement trusted stateful CGI Form Data using cryptography.
This is a little module made for CGI scripting. It encodes the parameters to
be passed to a CGI. It does nothing more, so it's much smaller and loads more
quickly.
CGI::Ex provides a suite of utilities to make writing CGI scripts more
enjoyable. Although they can all be used separately, the main functionality of
each of the modules is best represented in the CGI::Ex::App module. CGI::Ex::App
takes CGI application building to the next step. CGI::Ex::App is not quite a
framework (which normally includes pre-built html) instead CGI::Ex::App is an
extended application flow that dramatically reduces CGI build time in most
cases. It does so using as little magic as possible. See CGI::Ex::App.
The main functionality is provided by several other modules that may be used
separately, or together through the CGI::Ex interface.
Converts a CGI query into structured data using a dotted name convention
similar to TT2.
expand_cgi works with CGI.pm, Apache::Request or anything with an appropriate
"param" method. Or you can use expand_hash directly.
If you prefer to use a different flattening convention then CGI::Expand can
be subclassed.
The goal of CGI::FormBuilder (FormBuilder) is to provide an easy way
for you to generate and process entire CGI form-based applications.
Its main features are:
* Field Abstraction
Viewing fields as entities (instead of just params), where the HTML
representation, CGI values, validation, and so on are properties of
each field.
* DWIMmery
Lots of built-in "intelligence" (such as automatic field typing),
giving you about a 4:1 ratio of the code it generates versus what
you have to write.
* Built-in Validation
Full-blown regex validation for fields, even including JavaScript
code generation.
* Template Support
Pluggable support for external template engines, such as
HTML::Template, Text::Template, Template Toolkit, and
CGI::FastTemplate.
Plus, the native HTML generated is valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
CGI::Framework is a simple and lightweight framework for building web-based CGI
applications. It features complete code-content separation (templating) by
utilizing the HTML::Template library, stateful file or database-based sessions
by utilizing the CGI::Session library, form parsing by utilizing the CGI
library, (optional) multi-lingual templates support, and an extremely easy to
use methodology for the validation, pre-preparation and post-cleanup associated
with each template. It also provides easy logging mechanisms, graceful fatal
error handling, including special templates and emails to admins.
