Hello all, I have a POE application to which I would like to add a web-based interface. I'd like to stay with Perl as much as possible, apart from the web server which I've chosen as nginx (other suggestions appreciated). What I'm investigating at the moment is the connection between POE and the web app. To build the web app there is seemingly a very large choice of frameworks available for Perl, like Mojo, Catalyst, Titanium, Maypole, the list goes on and on. The application is medium-sized and will not be made public, so traffic is not a concern. The frontend is basically to provide an interface for configuring and building systems. The interface is rather light, and the heavy work is done behind the scenes using POE.
Are there Perl web frameworks out there which lend themselves more to interaction with POE eg. easier to integrate with ? If you have built such an application, which framework did you use ? I do not want to write the web part from scratch as the focus has to remain with the main purpose of the application. I would just like to provide user interfaces such as check boxes, drop down lists and such for entering data and also for providing feedback, most possibly (but not necessarily) by grabbing console output and showing it somewhat formatted on the web interface. It would also support a couple of users at the same time. Thanks for any suggestions !
