NAME¶
Perl::Critic::Policy::Freenode::ModPerl - Don't use mod_perl to write web
applications
DESCRIPTION¶
mod_perl <http://perl.apache.org/> is an embedded Perl interpreter for the
Apache <http://www.apache.org/> web server. It allows you to dynamically
configure and mod Apache. It is not a generally good solution for writing web
applications. Frameworks using Plack (Web::Simple, Dancer2, Catalyst) and
Mojolicious are much more flexible, powerful, and stable. A web application
written in one of these frameworks can be deployed using a Perl HTTP server
such as Starman or Mojo::Server::Hypnotoad; by proxy from Apache or nginx; or
even run as if they were regular CGI scripts.
AFFILIATION¶
This policy is part of Perl::Critic::Freenode.
CONFIGURATION¶
This policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
