NAME

Leyland::Manual::Deployment - How to deploy Leyland applications

VERSION

version 0.001007

QUICK-STARTING YOUR APPLICATION

Since Leyland is Plack based, running and deploying your applications is easy. During development and testing, the quickest way to start your application is to change into the application's directory and run plackup with no arguments. This will start the application under the "development" Plack environment, listening on port 5000, so you'd be able to point your web browser to http://localhost:5000/ and start testing your app.

DEPLOYING YOUR APPLICATION

When your application is ready for prime time, Plack's standalone web server is not a good choice for deployment. When that time comes, you'll have a lot of choices for deploying your applications. You can use FastCGI with Plack::Handler::FCGI, or Starman with Plack::Handler::Starman, or Starlet, or SCGI, or Mongrel2, or basically anything under the Plack::Handler::* family. Keep in mind, however, that Leyland applications are not non-blocking nor asynchronous, so you can't use Feersum or Twiggy or other non-blocking servers (at least not yet).

To learn about deploying your application, refer to plackup and your handler of choice.
