NAME

Bigtop::Backend::CGI - defines the legal keywords for cgi backends

SYNOPYSIS

If you are making a cgi generating backend:

use Bigtop::Backend::CGI

This specifies the keywords for cgi generating backends.

If you need to add a keyword which is generally useful, add it here (and send in a patch). If you need a backend specific keyword, register is within your backend module.

DESCRIPTION

If you are using a Bigtop backend in the CGI family, you should read this document to find out what the valid keywords are and what effect they have.

If you are writing a Bigtop::CGI:: module, you should use this module. That will register the keywords your module will need.

BASIC STRUCTURE

A bigtop file looks like this:

config {
}
app name {
    controller name {
    }
}

KEYWORDS

Inside the app braces, you can include the location keyword. Its value will be the base Apache Location for the application. The default is '/'.

Inside the controller braces, you may include a location or a rel_location keyword. Use location if you want to specify an absolute path and rel_location if you want to specify a path relative to the app level location.
