=head1 NAME

Web::Dispatch::HTTPMethods - Helpers to make RESTFul Dispatchers Easier

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    package MyApp:WithHTTPMethods;

    use Web::Simple;
    use Web::Dispatch::HTTPMethods;

    sub as_text {
      [200, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain'],
        [$_[0]->{REQUEST_METHOD}, $_[0]->{REQUEST_URI}] ]
    }

    sub dispatch_request {
      sub (/get) {
        GET { as_text(pop) }
      },
      sub (/get-head) {
        GET { as_text(pop) }
        HEAD { [204,[],[]] },
      },
      sub (/get-post-put) {
        GET { as_text(pop) }  ## NOTE: no commas separating http methods
        POST { as_text(pop) }
        PUT { as_text(pop) }
      },
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Exports the most commonly used HTTP methods as subroutine helps into your
L<Web::Simple> based application.  Additionally adds an automatic HTTP code 405
C<Method Not Allow> if none of the HTTP methods match for a given dispatch and
also adds a dispatch rule for C<HEAD> if no C<HEAD> exists but a C<GET> does
(in which case the C<HEAD> returns the C<GET> dispatch with an empty body.)

We also add at the end of the chain support for the OPTIONS method (if you do
not add one yourself.  This defaults to http 200 ok + Allows http headers.

Also we try to set correct HTTP headers such as C<Allows> as makes sense based
on your dispatch chain.

The following dispatch chains are basically the same:

    sub dispatch_request {
      sub (/get-http-methods) {
        GET { [200, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain'], ['Hello World']] }
      },
      sub(/get-classic) {
        sub (GET) { [200, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain'], ['Hello World']] },
        sub (HEAD)  { [200, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain'], []] },
        sub (OPTIONS)  {
          [200, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain', Allows=>'GET,HEAD,OPTIONS'], []];
        },
        sub () {
          [405, ['Content-Type' => 'text/plain', Allows=>'GET,HEAD,OPTIONS'], 
           ['Method Not Allowed']]
        },
      }
    }

The idea here is less boilerplate to distract the reader from the main point of
the code and also to encapsulate some best practices.

B<NOTE> You currently cannot mix http method style and prototype sub style in
the same scope, as in the following example:

    sub dispatch_request {
      sub (/get-head) {
        GET { ... }
        sub (HEAD) { ... }
      },
    }

If you try this our code will notice and issue a C<die>.  If you have a good use
case please bring it to the authors.  

=head2 EXPORTS

This automatically exports the following subroutines:

    GET
    PUT
    POST
    HEAD
    DELETE
    OPTIONS
