NAME
    Mojolicious::Plugin::CGI - Run CGI script from Mojolicious

VERSION
    0.06

DESCRIPTION
    This plugin enable Mojolicious to run Perl CGI scripts. It does so by
    forking a new process with a modified environment and reads the STDOUT
    in a non-blocking matter.

SYNOPSIS
      use Mojolicious::Lite;

      plugin CGI => [ '/script' => '/path/to/cgi/script.pl' ];
      plugin CGI => {
        route => '/mount/point',
        script => '/path/to/cgi/script.pl',
        env => {}, # default is \%ENV
        before => sub { # called before setup and script start
          my $c = shift;
          # modify QUERY_STRING
          $c->req->url->query->param(a => 123);
        },
      };

      app->start;

METHODS
  env
    Returns a hash ref containing the environment variables that should be
    used when starting the CGI script. Defaults to %ENV when this module was
    loaded.

  emulate_environment
      %env = $self->emulate_environment($c);

    Returns a hash which contains the environment variables which should be
    used by the CGI script.

    In addition to "env", these dynamic variables are set:

      CONTENT_LENGTH, CONTENT_TYPE, HTTP_COOKIE, HTTP_HOST, HTTP_REFERER,
      HTTP_USER_AGENT, HTTPS, PATH, PATH_INFO, QUERY_STRING, REMOTE_ADDR,
      REMOTE_HOST, REMOTE_PORT, REMOTE_USER, REQUEST_METHOD, SCRIPT_NAME,
      SERVER_PORT, SERVER_PROTOCOL.

    Additional static variables:

      GATEWAY_INTERFACE = "CGI/1.1"
      SERVER_ADMIN = $ENV{USER}
      SCRIPT_FILENAME = Script name given as argument to register.
      SERVER_NAME = Sys::Hostname::hostname()
      SERVER_SOFTWARE = "Mojolicious::Plugin::CGI"

  register
      $self->register($app, [ $route => $script ]);
      $self->register($app, %args);
      $self->register($app, \%args);

    "route" and path need to exist as keys in %args unless given as plain
    arguments.

    $route can be either a plain path or a route object.
