Server-side processing?

frank1 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I need some help on server side processing for datatable, i want to be able to handle over 300k records, and i was advised to use server side processing method

its my first time server side processing trying in perl

my main point is that, if i have PERL Script

my $INFO = $DBH->prepare("SELECT 
  SND.ACC, M.ID, M.FULLNAME FROM
  U_REC as M
  JOIN U_USERS as SND ON SND.ACC = M.ID WHERE CASE WHEN (SELECT SUM(st
+atus = ?) FROM  U_REC) > 0 THEN M.status = ? ELSE M.status = ?  OR M.
+status = ? OR  M.status = ? END
  ORDER BY created ASC");
$INFO->execute('new', 'ne1', 'ne2', 'ne3', 'ne4');

 my (@data,$ACC,$ID,$FULLNAME);
 
 
 foreach (@data = $INFO->fetchall_arrayref()) {
    $ACC = $data[0];
    $ID = $data[1];
    $FULLNAME = $data[2];

    }

"Then how do i return results to html" DataTables server side processing requires an ajax data source, so you'll want to return your data from your perl backend as JSON.	[reply]

I don't know much about jQuery, but the general idea is to create the table content in Perl (using a templating system, like Template::Toolkit, HTML::Template or maybe Mojolicious), and then send that to the browser. Something like the following: use Mojolicious::Lite; get '/' => sub { my( $c ) = @_; # fake fetch rows from database # my $sth = $dbh->prepare( "select id, name from mytable order by +id" ); # my @rows = $sth->fetchall_arrayref( {} ); my @rows = ( { id => 10123, , name => 'Jane Doe' }, { id => 20911, , name => 'John Devo' }, ); $c->stash( rows => \@rows ); $c->render( 'index' ); } __DATA__ @@index.html.ep <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <table> <thead><tr><th>ID</th><th>Name</th></tr></thead> % for my $row (@$rows) { <tr><td><%= $row->{id} ></td><td><%= $row->{name} </td></tr> % } </table> </body> </html> [download]	[reply] [d/l]
