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!

Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
