NAME

       Perlbal::Manual::Contributing - How to contribute to Perlbal

   VERSION
       Perlbal 1.78.

   DESCRIPTION
       This document aims at providing useful pointers for people wanting to contribute to Perlbal.

   Knowing more about the project
       There's a description of Perlbal's internals in Perlbal::Manual::Internals.

       There's a list of to-do items at http://code.google.com/p/perlbal/issues/list

       Also, join the mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/perlbal.

   How to submit patches
       Send your patch to the mailing list:

       <http://groups.google.com/group/perlbal>

       Preferred format is either a URL to your change, or a unified diff ("diff -u") attachment.

       For bonus points, include your patch inline also for ease of inline commenting during code reviews, but be sure to also attach the patch or
       include a URL.

       Be sure to follow local style conventions.

NAME

       Perlbal::Manual::WebServer - Configuring Perlbal as a Web Server

   VERSION
       Perlbal 1.78.

   DESCRIPTION
       How to configure a Perlbal Web Server service.

   READ ME FIRST
       Please read Perlbal::Manual::Configuration first for a better explanation on how to configure Perlbal. This document will make much more
       sense after reading that.

   Configuring Perlbal as a Web Server
       By default, perlbal looks for a configuration file at /etc/perlbal/perlbal.conf.

       You can also point perlbal at a different configuration file with the -c flag.

	   $ perlbal -c /home/user/perlbal.conf

       Here's a very simple example where we configure a simple web server that serves an index file under /tmp

	   CREATE SERVICE perlbal_test
	       SET role 	  = web_server
	       SET listen	  = 0.0.0.0:80
	       SET docroot	  = /tmp
	   ENABLE perlbal_test

       The first line creates a service called "perlbal_test". The last line enables that service.

       The three parameters state - in order - that the service is a web server, that it listens on all addresses on port 80, and that its
       document root is "/tmp".

   Parameters
       You can set parameters via commands of either forms:

	   SET <service-name> <param> = <value>
	   SET <param> = <value>

       dirindexing = bool
	       Show directory indexes when an HTTP request is for a directory. Warning: this is not an async operation, so will slow down Perlbal
	       on heavily loaded sites.

	       Default if false.

       docroot = directory/root
	       Directory root for web server.

       enable_concatenate_get = bool
	       Enable Perlbal's multiple-files-in-one-request mode, where a client have use a comma-separated list of files to return, always in
	       text/plain.

	       Useful for web apps which have dozens/hundreds of tiny css/js files, and don't trust browsers/etc to do pipelining.

	       Decreases overall round-trip latency a bunch, but requires app to be modified to support it. See t/17-concat.t test for details.

	       Default is false.

       enable_md5 = bool
	       Enable verification of the Content-MD5 header in HTTP PUT requests.

	       Default is true.

       enable_delete = bool
	       Enable HTTP DELETE requests.

	       Default is false.

       enable_put = bool
	       Enable HTTP PUT requests.

	       Default is false.

       index_files = comma-separated list of filenames
	       Comma-separated list of filenames to load when a user visits a directory URL, listed in order of preference.

	       Default is index.html.

       max_put_size = size
	       The maximum content-length that will be accepted for a PUT request, if enable_put is on.

	       Default is 0, which means there is no limit.

       min_put_directory = int
	       If PUT requests are enabled, require this many levels of directories to already exist. If not, fail.

	       Default is 0.

       server_tokens = bool
	       Whether to provide a "Server" header.

	       Perlbal by default adds a header to all replies (such as the web_server role). By setting this default to "off", you can prevent
	       Perlbal from identifying itself.

	       Default is "on".
