## Project Branches
There are 3 branches to this project. There is just one CGI file and a version of the README.md in each one. Use the one that works for you. If at SDF, use the sdf branch. Otherwise master or mojo branches will work:
* *sdf* is the original branch, a CGI set up to run on SDF.org. I had to abandon using Mojolicious Lite, but found a nice way to do it using CGI:Tiny and the Mojo Templates. This version also uses a path_info URL parameter to manage routing, and mocks path_info, since is doesn't work on SDF's nginx web server setup.
* *master* is a branch made to be mostly the same as the SDF branch, using CGI::Tiny, but with more normal paths and not trying to pick out a separate user-level perl library. It still uses the path_info parameter, which actuall works pretty well for the simple case, I put it to, at least.
* *mojo* is a rewrite of the CGI part of the script using Mojolicious Lite and expecting that path_info is honored for CGI scripts. It uses routing based off the path_info (it's like *magic*) instead of a url parameter. I got this to run very nice with a handmade Mojolicous Daemon web server script, using the Mojolicous CGI plugin. It would have been so much less sweat to do this from the get-go, but I learned a lot banging my head against the wall, I guess.
## Dependencies ## Dependencies
This app is not at all packaged. You'll have to make sure all the perl modules you need are installed. If you are on a community unix server with just user rights (like, say SDF), you may need to ask an admin to install for you, or alternately, you can make a personal perl library in your user space.
