web app ...~10 small scripts for the UI to interact with....I'm wondering if a single script would be viewed as the clearer approach... I already have a couple of modules with major functions in them, but for execution what would you monks recommend, a larger script with control statements or several smaller scripts like I'm using now?

The "web app" deals with urls not scripts, so to the web app , its all the same

one script per url is pretty common organizational scheme , script as an API

but to a human moving an app from one machine to another, one script to update versus ten scripts to update ... shared config file ... it is all about the same :)

But to a human writing a test suite, APIs are the natural choice, but scripts aren't an obstacle, just one step and a few mouse clicks removed, an extra fork/system call

so, most of the modern web apps, mojo/dancer2/... favor one script that loads modules that register path/url handlers .... because programmers write subs and put them in modules and call it an API, that is the basic organizational structure for programmers

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.
