DESCRIPTION

Search::OpenSearch::Server::Plack is a Plack::Middleware application. This module implements a HTTP-ready Search::OpenSearch server using Plack.

METHODS

call

Implements the required Middleware method. The default behavior is to instantiate a Plack::Request and pass it into do_search().

prepare_app

Calls setup_engine().

setup_engine

Instantiates the Search::OpenSearch::Engine, if necessary, using the values set in engine_config().

do_search( request )

The meat of the application. This method checks params in request, mapping them to the Search::OpenSearch::Engine API.

Returns a Plack::Reponse, finalize()d.

handle_no_query( response )

If no 'q' param is present in the Plack::Request, this method is called. The default behavior is to set a 400 (bad request) with error message. You can override it to behave more kindly.
