NAME

Wishlist - A multi-user web application for tracking wanted items.

SYNOPSIS

  $ wishlist daemon
  $ wishlist prefork
  $ hypnotoad `which wishlist`

DESCRIPTION

Wishlist is a Mojolicious application for storing and sharing wishlists derived from external urls. Users paste urls and the app fetches data from those sites. Users can then add the item to their wishlist. Other users can then mark the item as purchased.

The application is very raw, lots of feature improvement is possible. It was developed as examples from several of the posts during the 2017 Mojolicious Advent Calendar. I hope that it will continue to improve, with community collaboration, into a fully fledge competitor to cloud solutions that track and mine your data.

DEPLOYING

As Wishlist is just a Mojolicious application, all of the "DEPLOYMENT" in Mojolicious::Guides::Cookbook options are available for deployment.

APPLICATION HOME

The application home is where Wishlist stores data and looks for configuration. It can be set by setting WISHLIST_HOME in your environment, otherwise your current working directory is used.

CONFIGURATION

  {
    site_name => 'Family Wishlist',
    secrets => ['a very secret string'],
    database => '/path/to/database/file.db',
  }

A configuration file is highly recommended. Its contents should evaluate to a Perl data structure. The easiest usage is to create a configuration file in the "APPLICATION HOME". The file should be called wishlist.conf or wishlist.$mode.conf if per-mode configuration is desired. Alternatively, an absolute path to the configuration file can be given via WISHLIST_CONFIG.

The allowed configuration options are

site_name

A string specifying the name of the site. Used in the link to the application root. Defaults to Mojo Wishlist.

secrets

An array reference of strings used to sign storage cookies. While this value is optional, it is highly recommended. Learn about how these work at https://mojolicious.io/blog/2017/12/16/day-16-the-secret-life-of-sessions.

database

Path to the file used to store data via Mojo::SQLite. If not specified the default value will be wishlist.db. Any relative values will be relative to the "APPLICATION HOME".

hypnotoad

Hypnotoad uses the application's configuration for deployment parameters. If you deploy using it, you probably should read "Hypnotoad" in Mojolicious::Guides::Cookbook.
