NAME

Lim - Framework for RESTful JSON/XML, JSON-RPC, XML-RPC and SOAP

VERSION

Version 0.18

SYNOPSIS

use Lim;

DESCRIPTION

Lim provides a framework for calling plugins over multiple protocols.

It uses AnyEvent for async operations and SOAP::Lite, XMLRPC::Lite and JSON::XS for processing protocol messages.

There are 3 parts in Lim that can work independenly, a Server part, a Client part and a CLI part.

All plugins are also divded into these 3 parts and use the base classes Lim::Component::Server, Lim::Component::Client and Lim::Component::CLI.

The built in Server part is called Lim::Agent and can be started with lim-agentd. It will use Lim::Plugins to load all available plugins on the system and serve their Server part to Lim::Server if available.

The built in CLI part is called Lim::CLI and can be started with lim-cli. It will use Lim::Plugins to load all available plugins on the system and use their CLI part if available.
