Re: [cgiapp] app example using best practices


Hi William,

after Jesse's response to my another email about P5EE I was afraid
that CGI::App community completely rejected P5EE. 
I am glad it's not the case.

Obviously, something (anything) is *much* better than nothing.
If we can post it somewhere in CGI::App knowledgespace 
(in list, at Mark's web site), Cascade will be fine.
I'll love to read into it. 
I learned something from Cascade as it is now.

But I would like to propose more: 
we may try to create one of apps P5EE plans to do, 
using CGI::App and HTML::Template best practices,
and also P5EE best practices, if P5EE folks will agree to post it
(or link to it) on P5EE site.
I believe that app "General Purpose Reporting and Data Maintenance",
directly competing with PHP MyAdmin, will be nice. 
And coding it using DBIx::Recordset should be easy enough.

Perl-based OracleTool will be a good start:
   http://www.oracletool.com/ (strange, link is dead right now)

Obviously, it is *much more* tham just CGI::App best practices.
But it will be better promotion for CGI::App, too.
And something usefull. Which anybody can download, tweak.
Something what can grow in time.

PDOC documenting tool (also linked from P5EE site) 
might be excellent for publishing the code. 
See PDOC in action at 
   http://doc.bioperl.org/releases/bioperl-1.0.2/

BTW, PDOC is clone of JavaDoc tool. Our Java guru loved it,
and for sure it postponed our switch to java a little.

So we will create not only example of using CGI::App module,
but also creating a CGI application (without '::').

Maybe this is too much to ask for... I hope it is not.

We'll se from the responses...
