💅 Mojo::Server::Morbo(3) — the group chat version

ok so this is Mojo::Server::Morbo(3), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection (yes bestie, the perl v5.42.0 docs, we're fancy now), and it is exactly as dramatic as the name suggests. Buckle up 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

Mojo::Server::Morbo — Tonight at 11...DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! 💀🔥

like that's literally the official name, I didn't make it up, they really wrote that in the docs. iconic behavior honestly 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Mojo::Server::Morbo;

my $morbo = Mojo::Server::Morbo->new;
$morbo->run('/home/sri/myapp.pl');

that's it, that's the whole vibe. new it up, run your app, slay 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so Mojo::Server::Morbo is a full featured, self-restart capable, non-blocking I/O HTTP and WebSocket server. it's built around the very well tested and reliable Mojo::Server::Daemon, so you're standing on solid ground, no cap 🫶

and the feature list?? it's giving main character energy:

• IPv6 👑
• TLS 🔥
• SNI 🌟
• UNIX domain socket 🧚
• Comet (long polling) ⭐
• keep-alive 💜
• multiple event loop support 🌈

⚠️ heads up bestie: this server uses signals for process management, so you should avoid modifying signal handlers in your applications. like, don't touch them. fr fr 🙈

to actually start applications with it, you use the morbo script:

$ morbo ./myapp.pl
Web application available at http://127.0.0.1:3000

and now the good part — for better scalability (epoll, kqueue) and to provide non-blocking name resolution, SOCKS5 as well as TLS support, these optional modules will be used automatically if possible:

• EV (4.32+)
• Net::DNS::Native (0.15+)
• IO::Socket::Socks (0.64+)
• IO::Socket::SSL (2.009+)

and if you're feeling picky, individual features can also be disabled with the MOJO_NO_NNR, MOJO_NO_SOCKS and MOJO_NO_TLS environment variables 💅
