bionic (3) Plack::Runner.3pm.gz

NAME

       Plack::Runner - plackup core

SYNOPSIS

         # Your bootstrap script
         use Plack::Runner;
         my $app = sub { ... };

         my $runner = Plack::Runner->new;
         $runner->parse_options(@ARGV);
         $runner->run($app);

DESCRIPTION

       Plack::Runner is the core of plackup runner script. You can create your own frontend to run your
       application or framework, munge command line options and pass that to "run" method of this class.

       "run" method does exactly the same thing as the plackup script does, but one notable addition is that you
       can pass a PSGI application code reference directly to the method, rather than via ".psgi" file path or
       with "-e" switch. This would be useful if you want to make an installable PSGI application.

       Also, when "-h" or "--help" switch is passed, the usage text is automatically extracted from your own
       script using Pod::Usage.

NOTES

       Do not directly call this module from your ".psgi", since that makes your PSGI application unnecessarily
       depend on plackup and won't run other backends like Plack::Handler::Apache2 or mod_psgi.

       If you really want to make your ".psgi" runnable as a standalone script, you can do this:

         my $app = sub { ... };

         unless (caller) {
             require Plack::Runner;
             my $runner = Plack::Runner->new;
             $runner->parse_options(@ARGV);
             $runner->run($app);
             exit 0;
         }

         return $app;

       WARNING: this section used to recommend "if (__FILE__ eq $0)" but it's known to be broken since Plack
       0.9971, since $0 is now always set to the .psgi file path even when you run it from plackup.
