How well has the installation process been tested for userland-only (non root) installs?

kraih3• 16 years ago

In userland you actually don't have to install at all, there are no prerequisites to resolve and there is no build process. Just unpack the tarball from http://latest.mojolicio.us and start playing. :)

It is of course also available as a CPAN module, so you could use the normal toolchain too. http://search.cpan.org/dist/Mojolicious/

natch2• 16 years ago

So you're saying it doesn't require any additional modules to be installed? [edit: aside from modules that come with perl, that is.] Cool.

As the article says, Mojolicious was funded in part by a grant from The Perl Foundation.

If I remember correctly, the vote for it was almost unanimous. (I'm on the grant committee.)

For a web engineer, http://mojolicio.us/ is as hard-hitting a brochure page as I've seen in some time. Built-in long-polling combined with full-stack-style templates and simple views combined with that one line install. Good luck and thank you for this contribution!

Very awesome!

Highly intriguing. Perl is a solid language that has really held firm ground for scripting but has been over taken by the likes of ruby in the web. Its nice to see the emergence of an mvc framework to help in its popularity and further growth. I for one will definitely be trying this and comparing with my current implementations in ruby.

spooneybarger• 16 years ago

you know there are several mature mvc frameworks already right? catalyst for example..

chuhnk3• 16 years ago

Yea I'm aware of catalyst but havent really spent any time with perl as of late. A lot of web development that I do is with ruby/sinatra which is the kind of framework I enjoy working with. Its just nice to see new development still going on for perl in this fashion.

I believe Mojolicious is by the same author as Catalyst.

I've been looking at Perl frameworks recently, and Dancer in particular. Dancer looks good to me - but so does this. I'd love to see it compared and contrasted to Dancer and Catalyst. Great work!

Adam Kennedy did a comparison between Mojolicious and Dancer a while ago - "Pitting Mojo vs Dancer in a competition to build Top100 2.0" (http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/40270, http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/40292, http://use.perl.org/~Alias/journal/40312)
