It's not that hard, I would say it's no more complex than Mason (but
there are varying schools of thought on that subject which I will not go
into here). Here is a hello world handler to give you an example of how
to get started.
conf/httpd.conf
--------------------------
<Location />
SetHandler perl-script # tells apache mod_perl handles the request
PerlResponseHandler My::Hello # My::Hello::handler handles / requests
</Location>
lib/My/Hello.pm
------------------------
package My::Hello;
use strict;
use warnings;
use Apache2::RequestRec (); # for $r->content_type
use Apache2::RequestIO (); # for $r->print
use Apache2::Const -compile => qw( OK ); # for Apache2::Const::OK
sub handler {
my $r = shift; # <== here is where you get $r
$r->content_type('text/plain'); # set the content type to text/plain
$r->print("Hello world!"); # print the response to the client
return Apache2::Const::OK; # return 200 OK
}
