mod_perlservice enables you to directly call perl methods and get return value over the internet.

mod_perlservice? What is that?

The cool new way to do remoting with Perl and Apache! But, lets start by breaking that crazy name apart. mod - perl - service

mod - Its a module for the popular and ubiquitous Apache HTTP Server.
perl - Of course, its the popular and ubiquitous programming language.
service - Ah, this is the unique part. Its the new ingredient that unifies Apache, Perl and XML into an easy to use web-services system.

With the mod_perlservice system, you can write perl subs and packages on your server and call them over the internet from client code. Clients can pass scalars, arrays and hashes to the server-side subroutines and obtain the return value ( scalar, array or hash ) back from the remote code. Some folks refer to this functionality as "remoting" or "RPC", so if you like, you can say mod_perlservice is remoting with Perl and Apache. Client programs may be written in a variety of languages; libraries for C, Perl, and Flash Action Script are all ready to go!

Now that you know what mod_perlservice is, lets look at why it is. The author (Thats me!) believes that mod_perlservice has a very clean, easy-to-use interface when compared with other RPC systems. Also, since it builds on the Apache platform, it benefits from Apaches ubiquity, security, and status as a standard. Since mod_perlservice sports an embedded perl interpreter, it offers high performance for demanding applications.

So what can I use this mod_perlservice for?

You can use it to create networked applications that require client-server communication, information processing and sharing. mod_perlservice is for applications and you will not use it to create dynamic content for your HTML pages. However, you surely can use it for Flash remoting with Perl.

Here are some usage examples:

A desktop application (written using your favorite C++ GUI library) that records the current local air temperatue and sends it to an online database every 10 minutes. The server can be queried to obtain the current and historical local air temperature of any other participating client.

A Flash-based stock portfolio management system. You can create model stock portfolios and retrieve realtime stock quote information and news.

A command-line utility in Perl that accepts English sentences on standard input and outputs the sentences in French. Translation occurs in server-side Perl code. If the sentence is idomatic and the translation is incorrect, the user has the option of sending the server a correct translation that will be stored in an online idiom database.

Finance::BeanCounter is a Perl module for stock portfolio performance functions.

Finance::BeanCounter provides functions to download, store and analyse stock market data.

Downloads are available of current (or rather: 15 or 20 minute-delayed) price and company data as well as of historical price data. Both forms can be stored in an SQL database (for which we currently default to PostgreSQL though MySQL is supported as well; furthermore any database reachable by means of an ODBC connection should work).

Analysis currently consists of performance and risk analysis. Performance reports comprise a profit-and-loss (or p/l in the lingo) report which can be run over arbitrary time intervals such as --prevdate friday six months ago --date yesterday -- in essence, whatever the wonderful Date::Manip module understands -- as well as dayendreport which defaults to changes in the last trading day. A risk report show parametric and non-parametric value-at-risk (VaR) estimates.

Most available functionality is also provided in the reference implementation beancounter, a convenient command-line script.

The API might change and evolve over time. The low version number really means to say that the code is not in its final form yet, but it has been in use for well over four years.

More documentation is in the Perl source code.

BeanCounter enables stockmarket data analysis and performance evaluation.
Ever wondered what happened to your portfolio on a day the market moved 500 points? Ever wondered what your portfolio returned over the last (odd and arbitrary) period? Ever wondered what the Value-at-Risk (VaR) was? Ever wondererd what the marginal risk contribution of a given stock in your portfolio was? Ever wondered what unrealized percentage gain (or loss) you made from the recent lows (or highs) ? Ever wondered if you could easily database the (public) price info on dozens of stocks for further analysis? Ever wondered if there was a simple cron job to report all this on a daily basis?
BeanCounter does all this, and provides an easy-to-use command-line tool as well as a Perl module that can be used with other pursuits. It stores its data (price, volume, earnings --- whatever Yahoo! supplies) in either a PostgreSQL or MySQL relational database system (but it can also use an ODBC connection). The (very fast) SQLite database on a flat file can also be used in either version 2.* or the newer version 3.*.
BeanCounter works with equities and equity indices from exchanges in the US, Canada, Europe and Asia. Options, foreign exchange rates, some commodities as well as US mutual funds are also supported as the data is provided by Yahoo! Downloads are efficiently batched so that information on e.g. several dozens US stocks is downloaded at once with a single HTTP request.
At some level this code is still beta in the sense that the command-line options and function interfaces might change. However, similar code has been working here since the fall of 1998.
Enhancements:
- Historical backpopulation now also adjusts closes, and the rpm.spec file has been updated.
