Description Chris Weyl 2010-03-21 00:35:05 UTC

Spec URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~cweyl/review/plack.spec
SRPM URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~cweyl/review/plack-0.9920-1.fc12.src.rpm

Description:
Plack is a set of tools for using the PSGI stack. It contains
middleware components, a reference server and utilities for web
application frameworks. Plack is like Ruby's Rack or Python's
Paste for WSGI.

See the PSGI manpage for the PSGI specification and the PSGI::FAQ
manpage to learn more about PSGI and Plack and why we need them.

Comment 1 Chris Weyl 2010-03-26 04:12:56 UTC

So, here's the dep tree as it stands (non-testing, and those not already in, at least).  The bug dep tree reflects these interdependencies.

perl-Plack
|- perl-Filesys-Notify-Simple
|  `- perl-Test-SharedFork
|- perl-Hash-MultiValue
|- perl-Test-Requires
`- perl-Test-TCP

There are a number of additional testing deps (optional) I should have up here by the time we're ready to review (though I'm certainly not going to object if anyone else puts them up):

skipped: Test requires module 'HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI' but it's not found
skipped: Test requires module 'Parallel::Prefork' but it's not found
skipped: Test requires module 'Authen::Simple::Passwd' but it's not found
skipped: Test requires module 'IO::Handle::Util' but it's not found
skipped: Test requires module 'Log::Dispatch::Array' but it's not found

Also, I tried to abstract out some of the messier bits -- namely the handlers/servers into their own subpackages, to prevent, say, mod_perl being pulled in by someone who just wants to run the standalone server.  The "messy bits" are in the plack.macros file, which is only ever used when %included by the spec.  This is a little atypical, but I think it lends itself to a cleaner spec.

Note that Ralf Corsepius has submitted his own request review for Plack in #664910.

Comment 6 Jason Tibbitts 2010-12-23 15:49:38 UTC

Chris has become inactive, I think, so this ticket should probably just be closed.
