Re: [Catalyst] Catalyst 'forward' function doesn't return any value

2017-06-29 Thread Mark Keating
Check that your development environment matches the server environment, 
including Perl version/location (such as using local::lib etc.) - also 
make sure they are using the same versions of the application and then 
do a matched upgrade to see if there are any incompatibilities.


You can always use Perlbrew to have multiple Perl environments for testing.

Looked at SO and your code seemed fine which makes me think this is an 
env. issue and not a code issue, but without a running example that 
fails we can't say.

Hi,

This is my first message here and my first few days with inherited
catalyst app so please be understanding.
I have the catalyst app deployed on a server and I can see code like this:

my $variable = $c->forward(qw/Curate::Controller::Utils _get_timestamp/)

On my local development machine I see the variable is always
null/none/whatever you call it in the Perl world.
I guess this is due to some incompatibility in Catalyst versions
between the server an my dev machine and the 'forward' function has
changed its behavior in the meantime.
I've described my problem in a good detail (with code) in this SO question:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44824288/catalyst-forward-function-doesnt-return-any-value

Can you please help me figuring out how can I assign the value to the
variable without stashing it?

Kind regards,

Michał Nowotka

Re: [Catalyst] UK hosting

2016-01-11 Thread Mark Keating

Hi Chris,

We have a Catalyst app, several Java based monitoring apps and some 
other apps running on Bytemark's Big V basic (£12 a month inclusive of 
VAT) VPS offering.


They seem to work fine. The Catalyst app runs on its own VPS as do each 
install of the Java App. which is OpenNMS installs. As long as your 
requirements are low (which they seem to be) they work well enough. 
Linode's UK offers are also good and are a Perl company so they 
understand Perl well - Bytemark seem to be Ruby/PhP.


Both Bytemark and Linode seem to have clued-up and helpful devs and have 
freenode channels on irc so you can scout them out and have a chat 
before visiting web portals and customer mangle-ment.


Hope this helps.

Hello

This is not actually a technical request, so apologies if I shouldn't 
be asking this here.


I'm hoping some of you can recommend a host - I've got my site to a 
point where I need to think about putting it online somewhere.  It's a 
rewrite of a current site, which I wrote 10 years ago when I was 
learning Perl and that does a maximum of 500MB bandwidth a month, so I 
don't think I'd need any more than 1GB to be safe, but I don't know 
what sort of server specs I ought to be going for with a database 
(MySQL) driven site (my current one uses dbm hashes).


I've had a look at the (Google cached, as it seems to be down at the 
moment) hosting page on the Catalyst wiki and most of the reviews 
aren't very recent, so it would be handy to know if there are any 
up-to-date recommendations.  I don't necessarily need UK based 
hosting, but something that's reasonably responsive for UK-based 
visitors.  My current site is hosted here: https://krystal.co.uk/ - I 
have always been happy with them, but the requirement to move to VPS 
to host the Catalyst app means I need to shop around a bit - their VPS 
costs don't seem to offer as much as some of the others.


This is a local sports league website, so I don't have a huge amount 
of money to play with - I think I can persuade them to spend about 
£10-15 a month.


Thank you in advance.


Chris

You can use the crop circle for Catalyst links - Shadowcat bought the 
rights to the original image (before the Cat. logo was integrated) and I 
don't believe the Catalyst Foundation prevents the usage of the image to 
promote/link/indicate Catalyst in any manner.

I have the original .eps file of the Catalyst logo, you will find it at:

http://www.external.shadowcatprojects.net/data/common/images/catalyst 
logo.eps


It can be scaled to pretty much any size in a IMP but if you would like 
it as a png/gif/jpg of a set size/quality and do not have the 
time/inclination to do it just ask and I will do this for you and post 
it to the same location for retrival.

It looks great on FF3.0
I think the cat logo could be enlarged and made transparent, so that 
the lower arm of the crop circle overlaps a little with the red bar 
below. This way the logo could be enlarged without the need to add 
more white space to the top of the page (which would be a waste of 
space), and would also add a bit of special effect to the page, 
without being, IMHO, too intrusive.


Just my .2 cents.

Keep up the good work!

Dare I say, an Enlightened Perl Development book?

*prod prod*

HEY MST AND MDK I AM LOOKING AT YOU GUYS.

*cough*
  

Actually a Developers Perl book sounds like a good idea.

Perl for Enterprise: A look at Enlightened Perl Development

That way you could cover quite a few camps at once, if it took a theme 
such as bringing an app into existence (as already mentioned here) 
including all aspects of dev. then it might even elicit some general 
interest to other language developers who are very confused as to the 
current state of Perl.


Also. J SHIRLEY - you is on the board as well :P
