Re: [beginners-cgi] Development environment?

[Shawn Hinchy]

Thank you for the recommendations, Greg and Bruce.  I will take a  
closer look at them and see if one of them fits my needs from an  
editor/project management point of view.


When you get to the point that a modified file needs to be uploaded to  
the server, do any of these support this file transfer to the remote  
server?  Bruce, you said that you use svn/rsync, is it overkill to use  
rsync to upload a file that I am modifying every couple minutes to the  
server for testing?


Thank you for the help,

Shawn

I don't think it's overkill, as rsync is only sending differences 
anyway.  There are many ways to do Perl CGI development though:


1. Local webserver for testing, edit files locally.  I find Mac/Linux 
developers do this a lot.
2. No local webserver, but testing via Perl's CGI:: library (it allows 
testing on the command line without a web server)

3. Remote web server, using something like ftp, rsync, scp, or webdav
4. Remote web server using a remote filesystem (like gnome-vfs)
5. Remove web server, via a deployment system (often something scripted 
against subversion)
