Package your own Perl for CentOS (or RHEL) as RPM

Sun, 28 Mar 2010 09:15:25 +0000

Of course perl is easy to build and you canbuild your own Perl is nice, but it needs to be managed on the target host where it is deployed. As internet access to CPAN is not available everywhere (we are talking about enterprise and carrier deployments here) updates need to be managable. At least on a basic level.

Build your own (faster) perl

Sat, 27 Mar 2010 22:57:10 +0000

Using the perl that comes with your distribution is usually fine, but it has some limitations. When building a perl for a distribution it needs to be versatile and fit various needs. Therefor ithreads, the perl specific threading implemenation, is enabled there, to allow building modules that require threads to be available.

Perl cache modules performance

There are a lot of cache modules available on the great CPAN already. The newest kid on the block is CHI, a Moose based intelligent and flexible caching solution with a very sane API and good design, separating the driver backends from the caching logic as much as possible.

Add benchmarking tests to MooseX::Log::Log4perl to verify overhead

Moose is your favorite meta-object system in your favorite language of choice. And you already have a lot of excellent concepts that extend the basic usage of object-oriented programming, like having simple means to override parts of methods (around, before, after) and of course roles.

Bringing logging to Moose with MooseX::Log::Log4perl

Sun, 13 Jul 2008 21:51:53 +0000

Finally after some playing around and discovering the main concepts behind moose and failing to find a logging role using my favorite logging system log4perl I sat down an did a little coding (it is really just a few lines) and uploaded to CPAN as MooseX::Log::Log4perl.

Quikplan – Ein neues Catalyst Perl / jquery javascript Projekt

Fri, 04 Jul 2008 22:48:22 +0000

Mein neues Projekt Quikplan geht an den Start. Gemeinsam mit Chris entsteht eine Kursplanungssoftware die speziell auf die Anforderungen einer Kletterhalle (oder ähnlichem) getrimmt ist.

Als Backend dient Catalyst Perl mit diversen weiteren Modulen (Moose, DBIx::Class, …) getrennt über ein JSON basierendes API. Das Frontend ist eine Web 2.0 Applikation basierend auf jQuery und einen eigens dafür erstellten Framework für einfaches und konsistentes GUI Handling.
