NAME

       RefDB::SRUserver - Lightweight SRU server for RefDB

SYNOPSIS

       use warnings; use strict;

       use RefDB::SRUserver;

       # change into the directory that contains the sru stylesheets

       chdir '<refdblib>/sru' or die "Can't cd to stylesheet directory: $!\n";

       # create and start the web server

       my $server = RefDB::SRUserver->new();

       $server->run();

DESCRIPTION

       This is a simple standalone SRU server for RefDB. By default, it doesn't thread, fork, scale well, run
       fast, or do anything else you'd need to serve out datasets to the world. It is intended to set up a no-
       frills SRU server without having to configure a web server like Apache. If you need performance, or want
       to allow remote access to your RefDB data, by all means use the RefDB SRU CGI module with a decent web
       server instead. The CGI module is available in the same package as this standalone server.

       To add some level of security, an application using this module must run from or change to the
       subdirectory which contains the stylesheets. All path info is stripped, and the stylesheets are then
       served from the current working directory. This should keep most users from sharing their /etc/passwd
       with everyone else.
