YAPC::NA
In my last journal entry, I mentioned how great YAPC::NA's Day 1 was. Well, Day 2 & 3 were more of the same, if not better.
One of the great things I learned at the conference was testing in general as well as an awesome networking opportunity for the rest of the cgiapp gang.
I posted minutes from our BOF session and the list has been quite abuzz lately, including my next point...
CAP::BREAD
The BREAD project has reached an alpha milestone, released on CPAN early this morning and has already gone through two more revisions, thanks to Mark Stosberg (who is quite a machine).
Anyway, what's cool about this is that once you have all the modules in place, you can put together a simple CGI::Application like this:
package MyBREADApp;
use base 'CGI::Application'; use CGI::Application::Plugin::BREAD;
sub setup { $self = shift; my $loader = Class::DBI::Loader->new( dsn => "dbi:mysql:mysql", user => "webuser", password => "webpass", namespace => "WHATEVER", relationships => 1, additional_classes => [ 'Class::DBI::FormBuilder' ], ); $self->bread_db( $loader ); }
