NAME Ado::Manual - Getting started with Ado SYNOPSIS ado daemon Server available at http://127.0.0.1:3000 DESCRIPTION Ado is a framework and application for web-projects, based on Mojolicious, written in the Perl programming language . Ado is a typical well structured, MVC Mojolicious application. Ado is a base application for building on it a CMS, ERP, CRM or all of them integrated together. It comes with default configuration and a model layer Ado::Model, plugged in by Mojolicious::Plugin::DSC. An SQLite database is bundled with the distribution at "etc/ado.sqlite" to get started quickly. Ado provides additional plugins and commands, which promote RAD , good practices, and team-work when starting new projects. The default Ado page uses Semantic UI via Mojolicious::Plugin::SemanticUI and is a good place to get acquainted. In short, Ado can be used right away as a CMS that can be extended with plugins and commands or as a CMF on which to build a specific application. INSTALLATION We strongly recommend using Ado with your own Perl (not the system-wide)! This will give you freedom to experiment with new versions and modules without polluting your system perl. Ado can be *installed into any folder of your choice*. By default it goes into the "siteprefix" folder of the perl distribution used for installation. When installing Ado in its own folder, you may want to add the "/path/to/yourAdo/bin" to your $PATH environment variable. When using Ado as a module from "/path/to/yourAdo/lib", add the path to $PERL5LIB. To install manually Ado after downloading, run the following commands: tar -zxf Ado-X.XX.tar.gz cd Ado-X.XX/ perl Build.PL --install_base $HOME/opt/ado ./Build installdeps ./Build ./Build test #optional ./Build install To see more installation methods and details, go to Ado::Manual::Installation. SUPPORT AND DOCUMENTATION After installing, you can find documentation with the perldoc command. perldoc Ado perldoc Ado::Manual #this page For better experience run the "ado" application and read the documentation from your browser. /path/to/yourAdo/bin/ado daemon If you installed "ado" in your Perl distro, you can simply type: ado daemon Go to http:/localhost:3000/perldoc You can report bugs and suggest features at . 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 . 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. . 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 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 so we count on friendly developers and organizations to install and test it continuously.
