Dear all,

Is there anything that I should be aware of if using fork() in a dancer
application?

I have some cache update code which can take a while to run, so I'd rather do it
in the background. I've therefore done something like this:

    post '/data' => sub {
        my $template = ...;
        fork and return $template;
        update_cache;
        exit;
    }

The actual code is in a module, but you get the idea.

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Andy,

I tried to use threads and it did not worked for me (maybe because of non safe thread modules I am using) so I use fork in a production application and it works good. I have some issues some times with MySQL that I have not fixed yet but they do not happen very often.

This is an example of how I use it:

sub execute {

	# These 2 lines below were to eliminate the error that I mentioned before. It did not eliminated them just reduce them
	my $dbh = database();
	$dbh->{InactiveDestroy} = 1;

	my $pid = fork();

	if ($pid) {
		# This is the parent (Dancer) in case you want to do something here
		debug ?Process started with PID $pid\n?;

	} elsif ($pid == 0) {
		# This is the child, here is where I do all I need
		$template = ...
	} else {
		debug ?Could not fork: $!\n?;
	}

	# I have a variable to know if I?m running this sub from the web or from CLI
	if ($cli) {
		my $output = waitpid($pid, 0);
		print ?The process finish with output: $output?;
	}

	return $template;
}

This is just an example, not the entire code. If someone has a suggestion or improvement, it is welcome.

Thanks,
Johandry

Surely you need an exit() in there somewhere for the child process, 
otherwise you'll end up with lots of web server threads?

Any chance one of you would like to write a short article about it for the
Advent Calendar of 2016? :)

Subject: [dancer-users] Dancer2 v0.161000 on its way to CPAN
Message-ID: <CAMvkq_Rdvvc7+5xDzeCJ+wxSfWkCFm0EXv-chE00Oc5v7DD_1Q@mail.gmail.com>

Hi everyone,

A new version of Dancer2 is on its way to CPAN as we speak. It has a
lot of exciting changes that I want to share with you.

First of all, it's significantly faster, since the request object is
now fully based on Plack::Request. I'm very proud of that. There are
still additional spots we want to improve (I'm looking at you,
parameters!) and we have room for further optimizations (in fact
there's a branch waiting for merging that optimizes it even further),
but it's at a much better standing as of this release.

Security has improved thanks to work by Andy Beverley (thanks!) and
Russell Jenkins (G'day!). Thanks goes to long-time community member,
Pedro Melo!

The build and install time for Dancer2 has now been substantially
improved. We removed unnecessary dependencies (prompted by David
Golden!) and no longer require memory cycle tests (unless you have it
installed) or Module::Build, since we already support MakeMaker.

We now handle a long-standing issue of sending non-hash data. JSON
(and other serializers) allow you to serialize arrays or strings but
parameters don't work that way. Until now that would crash (and get
caught by Dancer, of course, but still annoying), whereas now it
silently ignores them for the parameters, but still makes them
available via "request->data".

An additional "VERSION" method fix, thanks to Miyagawa for reporting!

The old dispatcher which goes into effect when you call the "dance"
method (although we recommend "to_app" instead) had a small bug fix
provided.

Changelog with ticket numbers is included below.

A big thanks to everyone involved with this release and this lovely community.

>From the Dancer core dev team with love,
Sawyer.

Of course, no problem at all. I was actually concerned that what I was doing might
be wrong/bad in some way, hence the post, but if it's fine and worth sharing then
very happy!

I'd also be happy to write something up about logging (regarding Plugin::LogReport
which I'll post about here once some changes have been made), and the
Plugin::Auth::Extensible changes that allow password resets etc.

Andy

Exactly, I have it. I highlighted in red the exit from the child. 

Also (maybe is useful) I have a print with an ?if $cli? to print messages in the console (debugging or logging) when the sub is executed from the CLI.

use POSIX qw(_exit);

sub execute {

	# These 2 lines below were to eliminate the error that I mentioned before. It did not eliminated them just reduce them
	my $dbh = database();
	$dbh->{InactiveDestroy} = 1;

	my $pid = fork();

	if ($pid) {
		# This is the parent (Dancer) in case you want to do something here
		debug ?Process started with PID $pid\n?;

	} elsif ($pid == 0) {
		# This is the child, here is where I do all I need
		$template = ?
		$exit_code= ?

		print ?Something in the console? if $cli
		_exit($exit_code);
	} else {
		debug ?Could not fork: $!\n?;
	}

	# I have a variable to know if I?m running this sub from the web or from CLI
	if ($cli) {
		my $output = waitpid($pid, 0);
		print ?The process finish with output: $output?;
	}

	return $template;
}

If it's CLI, can't you just set up the Console logger? You wouldn't need
the if() there, only at a setup() method.

I have a web site with primarily static content and a few Perl CGI scripts.

1. Can I start integrating dancer2 a bit at a time without a wholesale site
rewrite?

2. What is recommended as the best way to deploy dancer2 under Apache 2.4?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Run Dancer under starman or whatever

proxy from apache to starman one call at a time as you are happy with it

When all done - remove apache and use nginx as the proxy ;-)

Hm, I have a lot invested in my Apache configuration, and I love its
virtual host handling.  I tried nginx some time ago and I'm not sure it can
do all I need to do with client certificate handling (and the docs left a
lot to be desired). But I'm open to a rethink.

Thanks, Clive.

The easiest way to use Dancer with Apache is via FastCGI:

https://metacpan.org/pod/Dancer::Deployment#Running-as-a-cgi-script-or-fast-cgi
-under-Apache

Note that for 2.4 you will need:

    Require all granted

Instead of:

    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

There are some occasions when you might want to use Apache as a proxy to Starman
instead, but for most use-cases FastCGI is easier and quicker.

MST has a good little blog about deploying web apps in general:

That link points to the RewriteEngine version.
I use:
   ScriptAlias /myapp /path/to/myapp/bin/dispatch.fcgi

Note:
- dispatch.fcgi is NOT in the document root
- Do NOT detach
-- in dispatch.fcgi
-- my $server = Plack::Handler::FCGI->new(nproc => 1, detach => 0);
- Running the same code as stand-alone for testing needs some tweeks

I have a scriptalias in my config.yml scriptalias: "/myapp"
and a plugin that exports the DSL keyword scriptalias
Loading sub-apps like this:

if (setting('environment') eq 'production') {
     load_app 'Subapp', prefix => '/subapp';
} else {
     load_app 'Subapp', prefix => scriptalias . '/subapp';
}

Mmm, maybe overkill...
setting some $scriptalias can construct a prefix "$scriptalias/subapp"

Running 'perl bin/app.pl' just works.

One can use this to slowly convert

   /cgi-bin/subapp1.pl
   /cgi-bin/subapp2.pl

to

   /myapp/subapp1
   /myapp/subapp2

HTH,
Henk

Message-ID: <20150716210820.a610ee47f8acac572293edaa@felicis.net>

Hi guys,

I'm new to Dancer2 and I'm trying to access an authorization header, similar to Github's 'X-Hub-Signature'. 

I consulted with https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Dancer2/lib/Dancer2/Manual.pod#header,it says to use 'headers' to "Adds custom headers to responses" and 'header' to "adds a custom header to response", but it does not say how to retrieve the header information, rather than adding it.

I'm using starman with nginx as the forward proxy.

This is my code for testing header access:

post '//hook' => sub {
        my $hd = header "Content-Type";;
        "Your Headers: [".$hd."]";
};
 
When I issue a curl, it returns empty.

What am I doing wrong?

Feedback welcomed and thanked in advance.

Cheers,

Vince.

Quick follow up on this,



Wrapping the instance in a hashref constructor performs as expected:



get '/object' => sub {

    { object => AnObject->new };

};



...which I guess is what I should have been doing in the first place.



Sorry for noise.


There was no confirmation of the final message. I have the exact same issue - the return of an object used to work fine - the code I have was tested 2 months ago with no issues. We have of course been updating modules and dancer, and coming back to this project, the serialiser now gives the Route Exception error just like for John. I will test out his solution - can I get confirmation that this is indeed the way to properly handle it, or is this a bug?

The header keyword is for setting a header. I think you want:

    my $hd = request->header('Content-Type');

See: https://metacpan.org/pod/Dancer2::Core::Request

I don't understand this email. T abundance of HTML in your message is quite
disruptive.

You either did not include the actual error or the HTML is in the way. I'm
not even sure what I'm reading, but it seems like you copy pasted your
inbox and a message you received and a comment to that message. I'm not
sure.

Also, other than not including the error, you didn't really provide any
context to this. What is this about?

What would help is "this is my code and here is an error I received". Both
are not present. :)

Can you please fill in the blanks?

The DSL keywords are much more preferable since that allows us to play more
with the internals. We assure the DSL will work, but we do not assure the
internal objects will stay the same. In this specific case, I see no reason
why "request->headers" won't work forever.

It seems like "headers" is only calling "header" again instead of literally
calling the "headers". Vincent, would you be able to raise this as a ticket
meanwhile so we could address it and you could easily track it?

Using the DSL is rather nice. ;-)

Subject: [dancer-users] Upgrade to HTML 5
Message-ID: <CACRdqbUj3t16ww7u6UOmsxFk7XqTTX2bUX6gtSk=VdDS2=GG1g@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

I did some small changes at html definition by upgrading to html5 and
committed to github. Some people may think that they are not critical
changes but I think that it is important for new people starting Dancer2.
For example, when I started Dancer2 approximately 2 months ago and saw
HTML4 definitions instead of HTML5, I thought
that it is an old framework, and developing stopped long time ago.

I think we can also upgrade jquery version from 1.11.1 to 1.11.3 at
views/layouts/main.tt file. I know that user can change it but I think
these are important for first impression to new people. jquery has versions
1.2.* but some internet explorer versions are not supported at 1.2.* series
so I am not sure if needed to use 1.2.* series.

That's a gracious way of saying "Sawyer hadn't noticed someone opened a
ticket". :)

And in case anyone is not sure what Henk is referring to, I'll add a few
words:
https://github.com/PerlDancer/Dancer2/issues/956

Henk has commented, rightfully, that the "headers" keyword actually refers
to setting response headers, not getting the request headers. That's the
confusion (even for me, since I don't even remember ever using the
"headers" keyword) and that is why this shouldn't be an issue with the
keyword.

Thanks, Henk! :)

--I don't understand this email. T abundance of HTML in your message is quite disruptive.
------

My apologies for the confusion. Let me try again?..

I had code which was working just fine two months ago. It relied on the automatic JSON deserialise + blessed objects. I was able to "return" a Moo object as a response to a REST request and the output would correctly show the json. So the basic format for this is:

get '/xxxx' => sub {
     return AnObject->new;
};

AnObject has TO_JSON implemented.

I came back to this project after 2 months and found that it no longer worked - I would get an error of the form " Unrecognized response type from route". I found  a thread from April 15th which showed the same issue and a solution. (this is what I tried to include!). The solution was to wrap the response object in a hash as below:

get '/xxxx' => sub {
    return { result => AnObject->new };
};

My question is: which should be the correct way. My previous way worked and then something must have changed. Was the change deliberate? I have no issue with the solution above, I just want to understand whether this is the expected behaviour now.

Message-ID: <CAEWSiHi-JDpm-aQz1s-Tk4ZT5xuZcqDUhJ0hP19U9a9fey+f2w@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

Is there a recommended method for using multiple configuration files for a
Dancer2 application in addition to the config.xxx and
development.xxx/production.xxx files? My app uses a couple of databases
with passwords that are changed on a regular basis, and I'd like to be able
to drop DB config files into the environments folder and have them
automatically included rather than having to edit config files by hand or
regenerate them by script. If there's something that already exists that I
can use, that would be great!

Thanks!
Amelia.

(Apologies for the accidental post)

To answer my own question, the easiest thing is to use
app->load_config_file(...) and merge the settings into the app config.

I suggest not using Dancer2 for the config loading here. The config loading
for Dancer2 really should be for the framework. Even though you can add
configurations for the app, it seems like a very custom and advanced
situation.

What I recommend is having a setup() method in your app that loads
configuration files for the database handles. Then you call that setup and
*then* call ->to_app.

Do you understand what I mean?

Hmm... I'm not sure why you're getting this problem.

Usually the problem people have is confusing routes that return HTML to
ones that return JSON and then expecting it to handle both in the same App
(which we removed for several reasons - as explained in blog posts, the
advent calendar, the mailing list, Github, and the changelog).

However, I'm not sure why *this* wouldn't work.

Can you reduce this to a test case? I would be happy to understand this
better.

My apologies for the confusion. Let me try again.....

I had code which was working just fine two months ago. It relied on the automatic JSON deserialise + blessed objects. I was able to "return" a Moo object as a response to a REST request and the output would correctly show the json. So the basic format for this is:

get '/xxxx' => sub {
     return AnObject->new;
};

AnObject has TO_JSON implemented.

I came back to this project after 2 months and found that it no longer worked - I would get an error of the form " Unrecognized response type from route". I found  a thread from April 15th which showed the same issue and a solution. (this is what I tried to include!). The solution was to wrap the response object in a hash as below:

get '/xxxx' => sub {
    return { result => AnObject->new };
};

My question is: which should be the correct way. My previous way worked and then something must have changed. Was the change deliberate? I have no issue with the solution above, I just want to understand whether this is the expected behaviour now.

What URL are you going to?  I assume http://localhost:3000 ?  But more

John,

Thanks for the reply.  That was exactly the problem -- I wasn't using the
dull URL.
