HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI::Environment(3pm)
NAME
HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI::Environment - a HTTP::Server::Simple mixin
to provide the CGI protocol
DESCRIPTION
- This mixin abstracts the CGI protocol out from
HTTP::Server::Simple::CGI so that it's easier to provide your own CGI
handlers with HTTP::Server::Simple which don't use CGI.pm - setup_environment
- "setup_environemnt" is usually called in the superclass's accept_hook
- This routine in this sub-class clears the environment to the start-up
state. - setup_server_url
- Sets up the "SERVER_URL" environment variable
- setup_environment_from_metadata
- This method sets up CGI environment variables based on various metaheaders, like the protocol, remote host name, request path, etc.
- See the docs in HTTP::Server::Simple for more detail.
- header
- "header" turns a single HTTP headers into CGI environment variables.
