=head1 NAME

Plack::App::CGIBin - cgi-bin replacement for Plack servers

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Plack::App::CGIBin;
  use Plack::Builder;

  my $app = Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/path/to/cgi-bin")->to_app;
  builder {
      mount "/cgi-bin" => $app;
  };

  # Or from the command line
  plackup -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e 'Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => "/path/to/cgi-bin")->to_app'

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Plack::App::CGIBin allows you to load CGI scripts from a directory and
convert them into a PSGI application.

This would give you the extreme easiness when you have bunch of old
CGI scripts that is loaded using I<cgi-bin> of Apache web server.

=head1 HOW IT WORKS

This application checks if a given file path is a perl script and if
so, uses L<CGI::Compile> to compile a CGI script into a sub (like
L<ModPerl::Registry>) and then run it as a persistent application
using L<CGI::Emulate::PSGI>.

If the given file is not a perl script, it executes the script just
like a normal CGI script with fork & exec. This is like a normal web
server mode and no performance benefit is achieved.

The default mechanism to determine if a given file is a Perl script is
as follows:

=over 4

=item *

Check if the filename ends with C<.pl>. If yes, it is a Perl script.

=item *

Open the file and see if the shebang (first line of the file) contains
the word C<perl> (like C<#!/usr/bin/perl>). If yes, it is a Perl
script.

=back

You can customize this behavior by passing C<exec_cb> callback, which
takes a file path to its first argument.

For example, if your perl-based CGI script uses lots of global
variables and such and are not ready to run on a persistent
environment, you can do:

  my $app = Plack::App::CGIBin->new(
      root => "/path/to/cgi-bin",
      exec_cb => sub { 1 },
  )->to_app;

to always force the execute option for any files.

See also L<Plack::App::WrapCGI> if you compile one CGI script into a
PSGI application without serving CGI scripts from a directory, to
remove overhead of filesystem lookups, etc.
