Re: [Pagekit-devel] Running under Fast CGI?

[Michael L. <mi...@go...>]

Hi,

One solution for backwards compatibility would be to minimize interaction
with the Apache request internally (dir_config, pnotes, notes) whenever
possible and then separate the controller from the handler. On
initialization, the *any* handler could pass a request object to the
controller's constructor. Under mod_perl this would continue to be an Apache
request, but under FastCGI it might be SomeOther::Request implementing the
requisite interface (and probably a few stubs for things that can't be
replicated).

I need something like this anyway, so I'm happy to do the research and/or
implementation and submit a patch. I looked around a bit today, and found
that Apache::Fake and Apache::Emulator are designed to do similar things,
but I'd like to look into each a bit further.
