NAME
Ado::Manual - Developers' manual
DESCRIPTION
Ado is a light on dependencies framework and application for web-projects, based on Mojolicious, written in the Perl programming language. Ado is a typical well structured, MVC Mojolicious application. It aims to allow teams to build on it a CMS, ERP, CRM or all of them integrated together.
Please note that the project is still a work-in-progres. Parts of it work, others are simply missing.
GETTING STARTED
Read the Ado::Manual::Intro for a general overview.
To see different installation methods, go to Ado::Manual::Installation.
SUPPORT AND DOCUMENTATION
After installing, you can find documentation with the perldoc command.
perldoc Ado
perldoc Ado::Manual #this pageFor better experience run the ado application and read the documentation from your browser.
/path/to/yourAdo/bin/ado daemonIf you installed ado in your Perl distro, you can simply type:
ado daemonGo to http:/localhost:3000/perldoc
You can report bugs and suggest features at http://github.com/kberov/Ado/issues. Bugs will be considered and fixed as time permits. Feel invited to make pull requests for your contributions.
If you are simply looking for help with using Ado, please ask your questions at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/ado-dev.
CONTRIBUTING
Anybody can contribute by reporting issues via github or fixing typos in the documentation. To be able to contribute with code, some rules need to be kept. This is mandatory for any community project. Generally the rules outlined in Mojolicious::Guides::Contributing apply for Ado too. For specific to Ado rules see Ado::Manual::Contributing.
We expect that you know how Internet works, how to write Perl modules and are familiar with Mojolicious.
To ease discusssions on Ado further development, a forum was created. https://groups.google.com/d/forum/ado-dev.
REST API
Ado strives for strict separation of concerns. The best way to achieve this is to fully separate the client code from the server code. Ado is ideally suited for the purpose thanks to Mojolicious. Every resource(route) is accessible via a browser as /path/to/resourse an returns HTML or using /path/to/resourse.json and returns JSON. We follow closely and elaborate on the recommendations in "RESTful Service Best Practices" at http://www.RestApiTutorial.com. See Ado::Manual::RESTAPI.
PLUGINS
Business-specific applications for an Ado-based system are usually implemented as plugins. One way to contribute to Ado is by writing plugins.
Ado plugins work the same way as Mojolicious::Plugins and share the same common base trough Ado::Plugin which ISA Mojolicious::Plugins. Ado plugins have one small additional feature. They can load their own configuration from $ENV{MOJO_HOME}/etc/plugins/plugin_name.conf.
See Ado::Manual::Plugins and Ado::Plugin for more information.
CONTINUOUS INTEGRATION
We would like to know that our software is always in good health. We count on friendly developers and organizations to install and test it continuously.
