Plack::Middleware::IEnosniff is middleware for Plack. This middleware
adds HTTP Header 'X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff' for safe. Sending
X-Content-Type-Options response header with the value nosniff will
prevent Internet Explorer from MIME-sniffing a response away from the
declared content-type.
Writing RESTful apps is a good thing, but if you're also trying to support web
browsers, you're probably going to need some hackish workarounds. This module
provides one such workaround for your Plack applications.
Specifically, you can also use a header named X-HTTP-Method-Override (as used by
Google for its APIs) override the POST request method. Or you can add a
parameter named x-tunneled-method to your form action's query. Either way, the
overriding works only via POST requests, not GET.
If either of these attributes are available in a POST request, the
REQUEST_METHOD key of the Plack environment hash will be replaced with its
value. This allows your apps to override any HTTP method over POST. If your
application needs to know that such overriding has taken place, the original
method is stored under the plack.original_request_method key in the Plack
environment hash.
The list of methods you can specify are: GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS,
TRACE and CONNECT.
This middleware provides a convenient way to modify requests in flight in Plack
apps. Rewrite rules are simply written in Perl, which means everything that can
be done with mod_rewrite can be done with this middleware much more intuitively
(if in syntactically wordier ways). Its primary purpose is rewriting paths, but
almost anything is possible very easily.
Plack::Middleware::ServerStatus::Lite is a middleware that display
server status in multiprocess Plack servers such as Starman and
Starlet. This middleware changes status only before and after
executing the application. so cannot monitor keepalive session and
network i/o wait.
PocketIO is a server implementation of SocketIO in Perl, you still need
socket.io javascript library on the client.
PocketIO aims to have API as close as possible to the node.js implementation and
sometimes it might look not very perlish.
Selenium is a test tool that allows you to write automated web
application UI tests in any programming language against any HTTP
website using any mainstream JavaScript-enabled browser. This module
is an implementation of the client for the Remote driver that
Selenium provides.
Squatting is a web microframework written in Perl that is based on
Ruby's Camping. It originally used Continuity as its foundation, but it
has since been generalized such that it can squat on top of any
Perl-based web framework (in theory).
Template::Provider::Encoding is a Template Provider subclass to decode template
using its declaration. You have to declare encoding of the template in the head
(1st line) of template using (fake) encoding TT plugin. Otherwise the template
is handled as utf-8.
Test::HTTP is designed to make it easier to write tests which are mainly
about HTTP-level things, such as REST-type services.
Each Test::HTTP object can contain state about a current request and its
response. This allows convenient shorthands for sending requests,
checking status codes, headers, and message bodies.
A Perl implementation of the Facebook API, working off of the
canonical Java and PHP implementations. By default it uses JSON::Any
to parse the response returned by Facebook's server. There is an option
to return the raw response in either XML or JSON.
