Well in my last post I made a little boo-boo. Well a few really. I wanted to get rid of my 'View' class as it was the same as my 'Element' class once I stripped out some parts. Unfortunately I discovered that I have to add in a number of other attributes to my 'Element' class which should never be part of the 'View' class. So I am going to backtrack on taking View out and put it back in.
Now my second boo-boo from my last post, I wanted to have first letter upper case names for my Accessor attributes like this
[This is a post in my latest long-ass series. You may want to begin at the beginning. I do not promise that the next post in the series will be next week. Just that I will eventually finish it, someday. Unless I get hit by a bus.

I search Perl information everyday. I'm Japanese. But I don't know what web site write about Perl. I want the site which I can see Perl latest information.
Personal blog entry is very interesting. But personal don't have power of advertise. Many information by company hide these entries.
I want to read the good Perl entry written by good Perl programmer. I want to find good topics. If anyone don't read the entry, the entry is sad.
Please tweet about Perl for many people to be able to read you entry
"Perl Tweet Timeline news" pick the tweet which contains "perl" or "Perl". If you write your entry and tweet by using English, You inform people your entry through this site.
If you have been following along you may remember this post, in which I introduced what my API was going to look like. Up till now I had only a few of the basic parts of that list in the in Accessor.pm jsut for quick testing. Now before I add in these new elements into my code I think it is time to review my Accessor.pm and see how I can clean it up before I add the others.
So I started with the 'View' and 'Element' classes, bundled in Accessor.pm and I see that I still have a 'retrieve' sub in each. A few posts ago I gave up the idea of trying to enforce the DAD writers to create these subs so there no reason to have them there at all. So out they go.
A while back, I wanted to write a post talking about how Perl 6 lets you use
C libraries without writing any C code. It was cool and clickbaity, but I quickly realized two things: (a) the statement isn't always true; and (b) I'm too ignorant to talk about it without sounding like a moron.
And so has started my
path to re-learn C
(I barely ever used it and it was over a decade ago) and to learn Perl 6's NativeCall in great detail. Oh, and I'll blog about my journey in a series of bite-sized posts. Let's begin!
Use C Libraries Without Writing Any C Code!
NativeCall is one of the
standard modules included with Perl 6 that provides interface to C libraries.
No compilers or -dev versions of the libraries are needed! And this, of
course, means you can use C libraries without writing any C code!
Update: I have just received notice that Gary Ashton-Jones, a Sydney Perl Monger and long time email list lurker, has lost his battle with prostate cancer. A terrible loss, especially to his wife and children. He will be missed.

Well in today’s playpen I am going to carry on from my last post and get my new name-space all in order so it looks like a re-factor day today. Some of you may of noticed good number of places where I could use all sorts of Moose goodies to save my self time and typing. For example I could create number of roles for the common attributes across my classes or maybe coercion on some of my attributes. Now might seem like a good time to do that.
Well what I have discovered over the years, and some old salts might agree with me on this, is that it is always prudent to build back to last working instance when doing a re-factoring or re-naming, to keep the changes to a minimum and have a point you can quickly get back to.
This morning I uploaded Test2/Test-Simple combined into the Test-Simple distribution. You can find this distribution HERE for download. This is the result of 2 years of development on the testing infrastructure. See THIS document for important information about upgrading.
Because this is such an important module, and this release is such a big change, I have also prepared extra tarballs for Test2 and Test-Simple that completely revert the merge and bump the version by one. If a showstopper or emergency occurs I can upload them in an instant to put things back to mostly the way they were.
I am not anticipating any big issues with this. There has been a lot of testing with a huge focus on backwards compatibility. That said, nothing is ever completely bug free, specially when it is as big as this. If you find any issues please report them!
Along with this distribution I have released the following distributions as stable (up until now they have been listed as experimental)
So today's romp in the playpen I think it is time I picked a name-space and stuck to it!
Well after much snooping about and pondering on my part I and going to try to stick my DA in the 'Database' name-space.
That was actually the easy part was the above the tricky bit is figuring out want goes under it, as something like this DA::SQL->new() is what programers want rather than a rather long winded Database::Accessor::Driver::SQL::Connector->new();
So what to do?
Well the first thing is to come up with a clean name-space statement so here is mine;
The Database::Accessor package and all packages below it (Database::Accessor::*) are reserved for used by Database Accessors. Related modulers and extension will use the Database::AccessorX::* name-space. The name-space Database::Accessor::DAD::* are reserved for Data Accessor Drivers.
GitPrep 2.0 is released at 2016-5-7. GitPrep is portable clone of GitHub. GitPrep work on CGI and own server. GitPrep 2.0 is major version up. It supports Pull request.

Adding to user id, you can set user name.
you can set encoding, and diff option(which ignore space) at each project. If you write the setting in config file, you set these settings at project setting page.
Header for reverse proxy is change to X-Forwarded-Proto from X-Forwarded-HTTPS
Needed temporary file is created in gitprep directory. not more depend "/tmp"
GitPrep image and example
The following is GitPrep example URL. This is run as CGI at sakura rental server. If you access the following URL, You can use GitPrep. It support SSL.
It seems Sparrow project is getting stabilized with version 0.1.*, I don't think I am going to change API radically in the future ... The same for Outthentic which accordingly hit version 0.1.* as well.
The author tests in my module publication pipeline
are only one part of the task. The other tasks are actually running the checks,
making sure that my public Github repositories
are updated with each release and actually pushing the distribution file
out onto CPAN. Of course, I have these steps automated.
Now to circle back again. You may remember many many posts ago I wanted to make it a requirement for my LSD writers to have an SQL sub. I later revised the name to be a _retrieve sub that would be used to format the query up before it goes off to the DB/
Well in the end I think I am just going to leave it up to the LSD writer to write those subs as they see fit.
In the long run I think that is the only way to go as there is no way I can abstract out from my set and into a set of functions that covers every situation. So I guess my Christmas present for my LSD writes it the joy of just using the attributes that I supply from the DA.
