[cgiapp] RESTful Perl Resources.

2011-09-16 Thread Timothy Appnel
Interesting thread for those of you interested in the topic of REST and Perl:

http://www.modernperlbooks.com/mt/2011/09/restful-perl-resources.html

Sadly, chromatic specifies Catalyst solutions though.

[cgiapp] Last call for feedback on auto_rest_tunneling proposal

2011-09-16 Thread Mark Stosberg
Tim Appnel has proposed adding REST tunneling to
CGI::Application::Dispatch dispatcher.

We discussed this some on-list in the past and found that REST tunneling
is also in Jaldhar's REST plugin.

Although I'm a fan of small core with heavy use of plugins, this kind if
REST handling strikes me as something appropriate to be in the dispatch
layer, and is handled in just a few lines of code.

So, I'm inclined to accept the patch, and going some details with Tim
about it on Github. If you'd like to join the conversation, now's the time:

https://github.com/markstos/CGI--Application--Dispatch/pull/1

The reference I found most interesting was

http://www.w3.org/TR/cooluris/

It seems to the me the way to think about this topic is to accept that
there is no precise formula which magically produces REST, but rather
that REST is a way of thinking about the structure of the API used to
access your site's resources.

This in turn tells me different people will come up with different ways
of doing it, even if they are trying to all come up with the same
solution.

 Sadly, chromatic specifies Catalyst solutions though. 

Yep.
