NAME
RPC::Serialized::Server::STDIO - Run a simple RPC server on STDIN and STDOUT
VERSION
version 1.123630
SYNOPSIS
use RPC::Serialized::Server::STDIO;
# set up the new server
my $s = RPC::Serialized::Server::STDIO->new;
# begin a single-process loop handling requests on STDIN and STDOUT
$s->process;
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a very simple way to run an RPC server. It uses the STDIN and STDOUT filehandles to read and write RPC calls and responses.
One use for this module is for testing; you can run a simple server as shown in the "SYNOPSIS" above, and test handlers by just typing CALLs into STDIN.
The more common use is that this modules serves as a base class from which to derive a more useful interface. The various UCSPI
server modules do this.
There is no additional server configuration necessary, although you can of course supply arguments to new()
as described in the RPC::Serialized manual page.
To start the server, issue the following command:
$s->process;
THANKS
This module is a derivative of YAML::RPC
, written by pod
and Ray Miller, at the University of Oxford Computing Services. Without their brilliant creation this system would not exist.
