[Catalyst] Catalyst Advent Calendar
Hey all, It's that time of year again, and as per tradition, we're running a bit behind. If anyone can whip up a few articles to buffer us for the next few days with the Advent article, that would be great. We are also in great need of an opening article. Please contact myself (email, or irc: dhoss on irc.perl.org) or Dimitar (email: mita...@gmail.com, irc: dpetrov).

Re: [Catalyst] Catalyst Advent Calendar
Coming up with good articles isn't easy! Documentation is the toughest part of writing code. Myself, I've been mulling, since Nov 3, how to make * http://search.cpan.org/~mstrout/Catalyst-View-TT-0.37/lib/Catalyst/View/TT.pm#expose_methods * resonate better with newbies like me, and I haven't come up with anything better than what's already there. :( Argh! I do appreciate the neat articles that talk about Facebook API's and Google API's and other advanced stuff, but those often seem a bit esoteric and beyond the daily grind of what we're developing. So it's also good to keep the newbies in mind. I think if the advent series could showcase a couple of basic articles (maybe even repackaging email threads?) it'd be great! Concepts such as: - how an insulated, personal perl library, instead of system-wide cpan, is better for a Catalyst app, - tricks and tips to keep in mind to make migrating a catalyst app from system Q to system X easy, - strengths and weaknesses of and techniques for using revision-management such as mercurial or subversion or git to track source code changes... - using InstantCRUD or AutoCRUD in various contexts as a debugging tool or data-mining aid On Thu, Dec 1, 2011 at 4:52 PM, Devin Austin devin.aus...@gmail.com wrote: Hey all, It's that time of year again, and as per tradition, we're running a bit behind.

[Catalyst] Suggestions for Catalyst training providers?
Hi, I am likely to be starting on a significant piece of Catalyst development work in the near future and would be glad to hear recommendations anyone may have regarding getting some training. I have quite a lot of years of Perl (enough that I have to work on 'Modernising' ); and have worked through The Tutorial and then done a couple of modest applications which have pushed that envelope a bit but it is painfully obvious to me that there is A Lot More To Learn. So I can set up an app to modest things with different databases, and feed JSON and XML requests, but haven't gone into configuration or clever result set work or anything much to do with Moose. I am pretty much working on my own and don't have an existing $work culture/infrastructure to help, it's all been from reference materials. So I think I want to find a Catalyst training provider who offers a hands-on course that can help someone at my not-quite-beginner state get to the next level. I am realistically expecting that this is going to cost some money but obviously fee is one consideration. I am on the South Coast of U.K. so could commute to London for two or three days if need be; further afield would mean looking at accommodation too. I'd be very grateful to hear comments/suggestions/advice on who's good and who to avoid, etc. thanks! -- best regards, Victor Churchill, Bournemouth ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Concepts such as: - how an insulated, personal perl library, instead of system-wide cpan, is better for a Catalyst app, Hmm. Not sure I quite understand this one, internal dependencies never seem to be a better architectural decision over external, thoroughly tested ones. Could you please elaborate? - tricks and tips to keep in mind to make migrating a catalyst app from system Q to system X easy, This could be interesting. Do you have tips? I personally don't migrate much from system to system, but others might find it useful. - strengths and weaknesses of and techniques for using revision-management such as mercurial or subversion or git to track source code changes... - using InstantCRUD or AutoCRUD in various contexts as a debugging tool or data-mining aid There have been one or two a year on this sort of thing, and while I think it's beneficial, it's almost something that's been overdone. If there is something groundbreaking in this area, sure, I'm all for it. I sure wouldn't mind seeing some more new ideas concerning this, but I think we need to look toward new things that haven't necessarily been covered yet, even if we're in dire need of articles.

It won't cover the JSON/XML stuff your after. For that you'll have to do what everyone else does; read the docs and ask questions. Another option might be with get yourself a per-incident, by-the-hour, support deal. There are plenty of free-lancers (and companies with free-lancers) that can offer that. It could be amiss of me to suggest one on-list.

[Catalyst] fastcgi process is pegging CPU
Hello all, I have lighttpd serving traffic from a fastcgi script (generated with xxx_create command). Apropos of nothing, the fastcgi script has started to consume almost all of the available CPU, and the site now runs dog slow. I'm at a bit of a loss as to why this would be happening, and I've checked for obvious problems like redirect loops or strange links in the filesystem. Can anyone help me out with what might be the problem, or at the very least, where to look? ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
