  • Posted using DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler to davewood

    I used to work with DBIx::Class::Schema::Versioned to upgrade my DBIC Schema but soon I needed more then it offered.

    Starting with DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler was a bit troublesome because I had a hard-ish time understanding the extensive documentation.

    Now that I moved past tha…

  • Commented on Moving my Catalyst Apps from Apache/FCGI to Nginx/Starman
    There is something missing in my nginx config which results in the following error msg. Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /var/www/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.16.2/lib/site_perl/5.16.2/Catalyst.pm line 2787. probably some config that passes the originating IP to the starman worker. more info...

    Nope. Benchmark and other comparison metrics sure would be nice to have. Perhaps if I find some time in 2013 I will put something together. But there might be some data available in the internets. http://www.wikivs.com/wiki/Apache_vs_nginx https://timmehosting.de/blog/benchmark-nginx-12-vs-apache-24-statische-dateien-drupal-typo3 And this just...

    I run debian wheezy and usually have a perlbrew perl for each user. (user 'www-data' for production, user 'david' for development) The perls are "managed" with git. This allows for easy undo if an update introduces problems. I do not...
  • Posted Moving my Catalyst Apps from Apache/FCGI to Nginx/Starman to davewood

    Recently I had to move all my projects to a new server and decided to give Nginx and Starman a chance.

    The Nginx config is rather simple.

    my Catalyst Application is located at /var/www/MyApp

  • Posted CPAN ratings to davewood

    There are a couple of indicators I take into account when evaluating perl modules.

    • Update frequency and date of last update
    • Usually I look at the source and check for existance of test files.
    • The next step would be to check cpan…

  • Posted open module under cursor in vim to davewood

    Inspired by http://www.slideshare.net/c9s/perlhacksonvim I wrote (well ... copied for the larger part) a script to open the Module currently under the cursor in vim.

    Typing \fm will lookup the first Module found in available Perl library paths (plus current working directoy . '/lib')

  • Posted CPAN, my first time. to davewood

    It was not that difficult getting my first distribution released on CPAN. But getting rid of the rough edges meant spending time with my favourite search engine and on IRC.
