Hi all,
at thursday 9.00 am CET the web development platform contest starts
(http://www.plat-forms.org). Some of you may have heard of it, some
others
not, so I'll just give some info:
The contest first hadn't Perl on i'ts list of languages (besides
ASp, Java,
PHP, Ruby,Python), but after some mails from Perl Monks they added
Perl to
the list of languages. Surprisingly, besides Perl, only java and
php got
three programmings teams to participate.
What has this to do with DBIx::Class you may ask. Well, our team
is very very
new to DBIx::Class but we decided to use it at the contest. We have
taken
our "framework" and moved it from Class::DBI to DBIx::Class. While
all the
basic stuff worked so far, I 'm still afraid of running into
problems when
some more complex queries come up, and since we have to finish
within 30
hours quick solutions are necessary. But since we can use "normal
mailing
list or internet support" we can post our problems and ask for
help. So I
just want to ask all you guys, keep your eyes open for mailings
starting
with "platform" , give us quick answers and help Perl
"win" (actually there
will be nor real winner) the contest.
Besides: One of the other teams will use catalyst, probably using
DBIC as
well.
Get your asses on IRC as well then. #dbix-class on irc.perl.org will,
as always, be happy to help.
The Catalyst team I'm sure will be taking advantage of this, so I'd
suggest you do too :)
