Template for a Qooxdoo Web Application with Mojolicious Backend

This has been superseeded by Mojolicious Automake!

Qooxdoo&Mojolicious App Generator

A Mojolicious generator template for creating JavaScript web applications.

With qx-mojo-app you can create web apps with a server part written in Perl and a client part written in JavaScript using the Qooxdoo framework.

The app comes complete with an automake configure system, ready for distribution.

Quickstart

The following was tested on a fresh xubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 x64

# --------------------
# install dependencies
# --------------------
sudo apt-get install curl
sudo apt-get install automake

# -----------
# get qooxdoo
# -----------
cd
mkdir sdk
cd sdk
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/qooxdoo/qooxdoo-4.0.1-sdk.zip
unzip qooxdoo-4.0.1-sdk.zip

# -----------------------------------
# install mojo, set env, generate app
# -----------------------------------
PREFIX=$HOME/opt/mojolicious
export PERL_CPANM_HOME=$PREFIX
export PERL_CPANM_OPT="--local-lib $PREFIX"
export PERL5LIB=$PREFIX/lib/perl5
export PATH=$PREFIX/bin:$PATH
curl -L cpanmin.us \
  | perl - -n https://github.com/oetiker/qx-mojo-app/archive/master.tar.gz

# --------
# make app

qx-mojo-app's Issues

"slurp" is not exported by the Mojo::Util module

Mojolicious 7.31 removed a number of functions. This is causing test failures:
