NAME Pinto::Server - Web interface to a Pinto repository VERSION version 0.001 DESCRIPTION You probably want to look at pinto-server first. Pinto::Server is a web API to a Pinto repository. Using this interface, remote clients (like pinto-remote) can add distributions, remove packages, and list the contents of the Pinto repository. In addition, Pinto::Server serves the entire contents of your repository, so you can use it as the source of distributions for cpan or cpanm. Before running Pinto::Server you must first create a Pinto repository. See pinto-admin for directions on that. Once you have a repository, the easiest way to run Pinto::Server is like this: $> pinto-server [OPTIONS] Pinto::Server is also PSGI compatible, so you can run it under Plack like this: $> plackup [OPTIONS] /path/to/pinto-server CONFIGURATION Pinto::Server automatically uses your Pinto configuration file which is usually at $HOME/.pinto/config.ini. Or you can set the "PERL_PINTO" environment variable to point to another location. No additional configuration is required beyond what Pinto itself uses. However, Pinto::Server will always silently force the "nocommit" and "noinit" parameters to 0. Also, the "author" parameter is meaningless to Pinto::Server because clients all required to provide an author for any "add" or "remove" operations. CAVEATS If you are running Pinto::Server and have configured Pinto to use a VCS-based store, such as Pinto::Store::Svn or Pinto::Store::Git, then you must not mess with the VCS directly (at least not the VCS directories that Pinto is using). This is because Pinto::Server only initializes the working copy of the Pinto repository at startup. Thereafter, it assumes that it is the only actor that affects its part of the VCS. If you start LIMITATIONS Pinto::Server speaks HTTP, but does not actually serve HTML. At the moment, is geared toward command-line tools like pinto-client so it just returns plain text. This will probably change as Pinto::Server evolves into a real web application.
