Dear /(Wom|M)anly/ Monks,
I recently used Mojolicious and AJAX to create a GUI for a Perl system I use; it works wonderfully, and launches the process. Now I need some general strategy guidance: the process can take hours, sometimes a full day. I built it so that from the command line it prints progress as it goes ("Processed 1 million ... processed 2 million..."). What strategy and technologies can I use to provide a feedback function for the web app? I assume this will require multiple threads, something I have no knowledge about in Perl (and, from what I've heard, they can be scary). I don't think a progress bar will be ideal; instead a status page would be better, simply stating progress so far, and perhaps average speed (all things I printed to the console before the web GUI). But I'm not sure where to start for an approach to this task. Thanks! In reply to Providing feedback to Web GUI (Mojolicious) by Endless
