CGI::Application is a framework for building reusable web-applications.

SYNOPSIS

# In "WebApp.pm"...
package WebApp;
use base CGI::Application;

# ( setup() can even be skipped for common cases. See docs below. )
sub setup {
my $self = shift;
$self->start_mode(mode1);
$self->mode_param(rm);
$self->run_modes(
mode1 => do_stuff,
mode2 => do_more_stuff,
mode3 => do_something_else
);
}
sub do_stuff { ... }
sub do_more_stuff { ... }
sub do_something_else { ... }
1;


### In "webapp.cgi"...
use WebApp;
my $webapp = WebApp->new();
$webapp->run();

CGI::Application is intended to make it easier to create sophisticated, high-performance, reusable web-based applications. This module implements a methodology which, if followed, will make your web software easier to design, easier to document, easier to write, and easier to evolve.

CGI::Application judiciously avoids employing technologies and techniques which would bind a developer to any one set of tools, operating system or web server.

Calyxo Web Application Framework encourages in MVC model 2 based web application development.

It offers support for true modular applications, i18n, a flexible view manager, a powerful validation engine, and more! Calyxo is entirely written in Java and builds on the latest Servlet and JSP technologies.

The Calyxo project divides into several components

Calyxo Base - this component collects some of the basic, reusable classes used throughout all the other components. It introduces basic concepts like modules, i18n, accessors and so on...

Calyxo Control - this component implements the Calyxo controller. Calyxo uses an approach similar to Struts here, so Struts users should feel familiar with Calyxo from the start. Calyxo Control may be considered as the "main part" of the Calyxo platform.

Calyxo Forms - this component allows the definition of forms, along with all their validation steps and lets you map inputs to properties of a data object. Complex validations, dependencies between inputs and mapping an input to a set of properties are supported. The Calyxo Forms JSP tag library provides replacements for HTML elements related to forms.

Calyxo Panels - this component allows the definition of pages in a container/component manner. Pages are dynamically composed from a tree of page fragments. Panel definitions may be nested to arbitrary depth and may use inheritance.

Calyxo Struts - this component focuses on integrating Calyxo parts into the very popular Apache Struts framework. The Calyxo Panels and Calyxo Forms components may be used with Struts to replace Struts Tiles and the Struts Validator.

OpenPlugin::Application is a subclass of CGI::Application, meant to help you create reusable web applications.

SYNOPSIS

# Example from OpenThoughts Demo.pm

package Demo;
use base "OpenPlugin::Application";
sub setup {
my $self = shift;
$self->run_modes(
mode1 => init_demo,
mode2 => get_os_list,
mode3 => get_os_info,
);
$self->start_mode( mode1 );
$self->mode_param(run_mode);
}
sub init_demo { ... }
sub get_os_list { ... }
sub get_os_info { ... }
1;

# Example from OpenThoughts demo.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
my $r = shift;
my $demo = Demo->new( PARAMS => {
config => { src => "/path/to/OpenPlugin.conf" },
request => { apache => $r },
});

$demo->run();

OpenPlugin::Application is built on Jesse Erlbaums popular CGI::Application module. OpenPlugin::Application is simply a subclass of CGI::Application. Jesse says the following about CGI::Application:

"CGI::Application is intended to make it easier to create sophisticated, reusable web-based applications. This module implements a methodology which, if followed, will make your web software easier to design, easier to document, easier to write, and easier to evolve."

How does it do this? Jesse goes on to say:

"The guiding philosophy behind CGI::Application is that a web-based application can be organized into a specific set of "Run-Modes." Each Run-Mode is roughly analogous to a single screen (a form, some output, etc.). All the Run-Modes are managed by a single "Application Module" which is a Perl module. In your web servers document space there is an "Instance Script" which is called by the web server"

The biggest difference between CGI::Application and OpenPlugin::Application is that query object they both use; one is designed to use CGI.pm, the other OpenPlugin. Generally speaking, everything in the still applies. Any differences will be noted in this document.
It is not necessary to use OpenPlugin::Application in order to build web applications using OpenPlugin. This plugin is meant to be for your convenience -- to help you structure your web applications in a manner which makes sense, and is reusable.

CGI::Application::Magic is a template based framework for CGI applications.

SYNOPSIS

package WebApp ;
use base CGI::Application::Magic ;

# optional runmethod
sub RM_myRunMmode
{
... do_something_useful ...
... no_need_to_set_page ...
... returned_value_will_be_ignored ...
}

# package where Template::Magic will looks up
package WebApp::Lookups ;

# this value will be substituted to each
# app_name label in each template that include it
our $app_name = WebApp 1.0 ;

# same for each Time label
sub Time { scalar localtime }

# and same for each ENV_table block
sub ENV_table
{
my ($self, # $self is your WebApp object
$zone) = @_ ; # $zone is the Template::Magic::Zone object
my @table ;
while (my @line = each %ENV)
{
push @table, @line
}
@table ;
}

Know Base project consists of knowledge, document, and project management tool.

Know Base is a Web-based knowledge management system. It allows users to share files and projects across multiple business divisions.

A unique notification system alerts users when projects are modified, or when new projects are added that match their search terms.

web mp3 player for xmms is a simple Web MP3 player based on XMMS and XMMS-Shell.

The project is useful if you have a Linux server attached to your stereo/home theater and you want to play MP3s easily via a Web interface.

A little playlist support is included. Important note: it is totally insecure, and should only by used in a limited environment.
