=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module is a wrapper for the completely object oriented CGI::Simple
module and provides a simple functional style interface. It provides two
different methods to import function names into your namespace.
=head2 Autoloading
If you specify the '-autoload' pragma like this:
use CGI::Simple::Standard qw( -autoload );
Then it will use AUTOLOAD and a symbol table trick to export only those subs
you actually call into your namespace. When you specify the '-autoload' pragma
this module exports a single AUTOLOAD subroutine into you namespace. This will
clash with any AUTOLOAD sub that exists in the calling namespace so if you are
using AUTOLOAD for something else don't use this pragma.
Anyway, when you call a subroutine that is not defined in your script this
AUTOLOAD sub will be called. The first time this happens it
will initialize a CGI::Simple object and then apply the requested method
(if it exists) to it. A fatal exception will be thrown if you try to use an
undefined method (function).
=head2 Specified Export
Alternatively you can specify the functions you wish to import. You can do
this on a per function basis like this:
use CGI::Simple::Standard qw( param upload query_string Dump );
or utilize the %EXPORT_TAGS that group functions into related groups.
Here are the groupings:
%EXPORT_TAGS = (
':html' => [ qw(:misc) ],
':standard' => [ qw(:core :access) ],
':cgi' => [ qw(:core :access) ],
':all' => [ qw(:core :misc :cookie :header :push :debug :cgi-lib
:access :internal) ],
':core' => [ qw(param add_param param_fetch url_param keywords
append Delete delete_all Delete_all upload
query_string parse_query_string parse_keywordlist
Vars save_parameters restore_parameters) ],
':misc' => [ qw(url_decode url_encode escapeHTML unescapeHTML put) ],
':cookie' => [ qw(cookie raw_cookie) ],
':header' => [ qw(header cache no_cache redirect) ],
':push' => [ qw(multipart_init multipart_start multipart_end
multipart_final) ],
':debug' => [ qw(Dump as_string cgi_error _cgi_object) ],
':cgi-lib' => [ qw(ReadParse SplitParam MethGet MethPost MyBaseUrl MyURL
MyFullUrl PrintHeader HtmlTop HtmlBot PrintVariables
PrintEnv CgiDie CgiError Vars) ],
':ssl' => [ qw(https) ],
':access' => [ qw(version nph all_parameters charset crlf globals
auth_type content_length content_type document_root
gateway_interface path_translated referer remote_addr
remote_host remote_ident remote_user request_method
script_name server_name server_port server_protocol
server_software user_name user_agent virtual_host
path_info Accept http https protocol url self_url
state) ],
':internal' => [ qw(_initialize_globals _use_cgi_pm_global_settings
_store_globals _reset_globals) ]
);
The familiar CGI.pm tags are available but do not include the HTML
functionality. You specify the import of some function groups like this:
use CGI::Simple::Standard qw( :core :cookie :header );
Note that the function groups all start with a : char.
=head2 Mix and Match
You can use the '-autoload' pragma, specifically named function imports and
tag group imports together if you desire.
=head1 $POST_MAX and $DISABLE_UPLOADS
If you wish to set $POST_MAX or $DISABLE_UPLOADS you must do this *after* the
use statement and *before* the first function call as shown in the synopsis.
Unlike CGI.pm uploads are disabled by default and the maximum acceptable
data via post is capped at 102_400kB rather than infinity. This is specifically
to avoid denial of service attacks by default. To enable uploads and to
allow them to be of infinite size you simply:
$CGI::Simple::Standard::POST_MAX = -1; # infinite size upload
$CGI::Simple::Standard::$DISABLE_UPLOADS = 0; # enable uploads
Alternatively you can specify the CGI.pm default values as shown above by
specifying the '-default' pragma in your use statement.
use CGI::Simple::Standard qw( -default ..... );
=head1 EXPORT
Nothing by default.
Under the '-autoload' pragma the AUTOLOAD subroutine is
exported into the calling namespace. Additional subroutines are only imported
into this namespace if you physically call them. They are installed in the
symbol table the first time you use them to save repeated calls to AUTOLOAD.
If you specifically request a function or group of functions via an EXPORT_TAG
then stubs of these functions are exported into the calling namespace. These
stub functions will be replaced with the real functions only if you actually
call them saving wasted compilation effort.
=head1 FUNCTION DETAILS
This is a wrapper module for CGI::Simple. Virtually all the methods available
in the OO interface are available via the functional interface. Several
method names are aliased to prevent namespace conflicts:
$q->delete('foo') => Delete('foo')
$q->delete_all => Delete_all() or delete_all()
$q->save(\*FH) => save_parameters(\*FH)
$q->accept() => Accept()
Although you could use the new() function to genrate new OO CGI::Simple
objects the restore_parameters() function is a better choice as it operates
like new but on the correct underlying CGI::Simple object for the functional
interface.
restore_parameters() can be used exactly as you might use new() in that
you can supply arguments to it such as query strings, hashes and file handles
to re-initialize your underlying object.
$q->new CGI::Simple() => restore_parameters()
$q->new CGI::Simple({foo=>'bar'}) => restore_parameters({foo=>'bar'})
$q->new CGI::Simple($query_string) => restore_parameters($query_string)
$q->new CGI::Simple(\*FH) => restore_parameters(\*FH)
For full details of the available functions see the CGI::Simple docs. Just
remove the $q-> part and use the method name directly.
=head1 BUGS
As this is 0.01 there are almost bound to be some.
