NAME

Clustericious - (Deprecated) A framework for RESTful processing systems.

VERSION

version 1.29

SYNOPSIS

Generate a new Clustericious application:

% clustericious generate app MyApp

Basic application layout:

package MyApp;

use Mojo::Base qw( Clustericious::App );

sub startup
{
  my($self) = @_;
  $self->SUPER::startup;
  # app startup
}

package MyApp::Routes;

use Clustericious::RouteBuilder;

# Mojolicious::Lite style routing
get '/' => sub { shift->render(text => 'welcome to myapp') };

Basic testing for Clustericious application:

use Test::Clustericious::Cluster;
use Test::More tests => 4;

# see Test::Clustericious::Cluster for more details
# and examples.
my $cluster = Test::Clustericious::Cluster->new;
$cluster->create_cluster_ok('MyApp');    # 1

my $url = $cluster->url;
my $t   = $cluster->t;   # Test::Mojo object

$t->get_ok("$url/")                      # 2
  ->status_is(200)                       # 3
  ->content_is('welcome to myapp');      # 4

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: This module has been deprecated, and may be removed on or after 31 December 2018. Please see https://github.com/clustericious/Clustericious/issues/46.

Clustericious is a web application framework designed to create HTTP/RESTful web services that operate on a cluster, where each service does one thing and ideally does it well. The design goal is to allow for easy deployment of applications. Clustericious is based on the Mojolicious and borrows some ideas from Mojolicious::Lite (Clustericious::RouteBuilder is based on Mojolicious::Lite routing).

Two examples of Clustericious applications on CPAN are Yars the archive server and PlugAuth the authentication server.

FEATURES

Here are some of the distinctive aspects of Clustericious :

• Simplified route builder based on Mojolicious::Lite (see Clustericious::RouteBuilder).

• Provides a set of default routes (e.g. /status, /version, /api) for consistent interaction with Clustericious services (see Clustericious::Plugin::CommonRoutes).

• Introspects the routes available and publishes the API as /api.

• Automatically handle different formats (YAML or JSON) depending on request (see Clustericious::Plugin::AutodataHandler).

• Interfaces with Clustericious::Client to allow easy creation of clients.

• Uses Clustericious::Config for configuration.

• Uses Clustericious::Log for logging.

• Integrates with Module::Build::Database and Rose::Planter to provide a basic RESTful CRUD interface to a database.

• Provides 'stop' and 'start' commands, and high-level configuration facilities for a variety of deployment options.
