IMDbPY is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb
movie database.
IMDbPY aims to provide an easy way to access the IMDb's database using a Python
script. Platform-independent and written in pure Python, it's theoretically
independent from the data source (since IMDb provides two or three different
interfaces to their database). IMDbPY is mainly intended for programmers and
developers who want to build their Python programs using the IMDbPY package, but
some example scripts - useful for simple users - are included.
H2O is a very fast HTTP server written in C. It can also be used as a library.
It supports:
- HTTP/1.0, HTTP/1.1
- [HTTP/2](http://http2.github.io/)
- draft 16 (and draft 14 to support older clients)
- persistent connections
- chunked encoding
- negotiation methods: NPN, ALPN, Upgrade, direct
- dependency and weight-based prioritization
- server push
- TLS
- uses [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org/)
- forward secrecy
- AEAD ciphers
- OCSP stapling (automatically enabled)
- session resumption (internal memory)
- conditional GET using last-modified / etag
- mime-type configuration
- reverse proxy
- persistent upstream connection
pecl-http extension aims to provide a convenient and
powerful set of functionality for one of PHPs major
applications. It eases handling of HTTP URLs, dates,
redirects, headers and messages, provides means for
negotiation of clients preferred language and charset,
as well as a convenient way to send any arbitrary data
with caching and resuming capabilities. It provides
powerful request functionality too.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This the deprecated version 1 branch of this package
as the current 2.x branch is described as
"completely incompatible to previous version."
Please upgrade to www/pecl-http as soon as possible!

Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version
2. Commercial license is also available for embedded use.
Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL
databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources
support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL, or from
an XML pipe.
As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially decoded as
SQL Phrase Index.
Flash Remoting is a way for Flash movies running in a web browser to
request structured data from the web server. The following data types
are supported - strings, numbers, dates, arrays, dictionaries/hashes,
objects, recordsets. Flash clients talk with the server using the AMF
protocol, which is proprietary to Macromedia. However, it's not that
hard to decode.
Using Flash::FLAP it is possible to send arbitrary data between client
and server using very few lines of code. There is no need to pack
complicated data structures into CGI form parameteres or XML strings.
The coding time can be spent on better things - data preparation and
graphical presentation, not data delivery.
Kwiki is perhaps the simplest, most modular and easy to extend wiki. A wiki
allows users to freely create and edit web pages in any web browser. Kwiki
is Open Source Software and is available on CPAN.
The overall design goal of CGI::Kwiki is simplicity and extensibility.
Even so, Kwiki will have some killer built in features not available in
most wikis:
* KwikiSlideShow
* KwikiBlog
* KwikiSisters
* KwikiHotKeys
* KwikiFit
* KwikiPod
* KwikiPrivacy
Each feature is implemented as a separate plugin class. This keeps things
simple and extensible.
This module has been written to provide a simple and secure
manner by which to handle files uploaded in multipart/form-data
requests through a web browser. The primary advantage which this
module offers over existing modules is the single interface
which it provides for the most often required information
regarding files uploaded in this manner.
This module builds upon primarily the CGI and File::MMagic
modules and offers some tidy and succinct methods for the
handling of files uploaded via multipart/form-data requests.
CGI::Response is a Perl5 module for constructing responses to
Common Gateway Interface (CGI) requests. It is designed to be
light-weight and efficient for the most common tasks, and also
to provide access to all HTTP response features for more
advanced CGI applications.
There are two ways to use CGI::Response.
For basic applications, the Simple Interface provides a number
of plain functions that cover the most commonly-used CGI
response headers.
More advanced applications may employ the Full Interface object
methods to access any HTTP header, or to add experimental or
non-standard headers. Both interfaces try to generate reasonable
defaults whenever possible.
"CGI::Session" is Perl5 library that provides an easy persistent session
management system across HTTP requests. Session persistence is a very
important issue in web applications. Shopping carts, user-recognition
features, login and authentication methods and etc. all require
persistent session management mechanism, which is both secure and
reliable. "CGI::Session" provides with just that. You can read the whole
documentation as a tutorial on session management. But if you are
already familiar with "CGI::Session" go to the methods section for the
list of all the methods available.
[simple | small | shell] web server
sws was born out of a project requirement for a small universal Web server
that could run on any POSIX platform to serve static content. Since it is
written in /bin/sh it should run on any BSD/GNU-Linux/Unix system. It has
been tested on FreeBSD, Solaris, and Debian GNU/Linux. Installation consists
of putting the program somewhere, making it executable, creating the
document directory, and creating an entry in inetd.conf. sws requires
/bin/sh, dirname, cat, and date to function. These should be found on any
modern POSIX system.
