 This week is exceptionally good for the beginners amongst us. Not only the
new edition of Modern Perl is out, but we also have quite a few tutorials.
Not that the more experience reader won't have their fill; new version of
GitHub-like GitPrep being released, Moose article aggregation, survey of
the new modules for March... there should be enough to keep everybody
happy. Enjoy! ~ `/anick







Announcements

  
  Modern Perl: 2014 Edition is Out
  http://bit.ly/1mTJYEZ
 
  No rest for the wicked, nor staleness for the modernists. The 2014 edition
  of chromatic's 'Modern Perl' is out.
  --------------

  
  GitPrep 1.6 is released - Time zone support, Charset support, and improvement of markdown

Articles

  
  Planet Moose - March 2014
  http://bit.ly/1mSBdYR
 
  What's up in the extended world of Moose in March? Nothing major, but a lot
  of little things. Toby Inkster has the details, and the links.
  --------------

  
  use diagnostics; or use splain
  http://bit.ly/1mSBdYS
 
  Gabor Szabo reminds us that Perl can explain itself in more details, if we
  ask nicely.
  --------------

  
  Learning the Perl debugger: Lesson 1
  http://bit.ly/1mSBdYT
 
  Don't already know the Perl debugger? Shame on you... But today's your
  lucky day: Chisel presents here a primer on this fundamental tool.
  --------------

  
  What's new on CPAN - March 2014
  http://bit.ly/1mSBf2Z
 
  David Farrell gives us here a curated list of the interesting new modules
  that	appeared on CPAN in March. Lots of nifty treasures in there.
  --------------

  
  Solved mystery - perl on XAMPP won't run modified scripts "End of script output before headers"
  http://bit.ly/1mSBf30
 
  Debugging is often a foray on the very brim of the cliffs of  sanity. Lech
  Baczynksi tells us of his adventures when he had to lean over and peek at
  the chasm below...
  --------------

  
  Fixing CPAN links on Stack Overflow
  http://bit.ly/1mTJYVf
 
  When answering a question on Stack Overflow, one can link  to Perl modules
  in a way that will break once the module gets updated in the future
  (which makes us all sad), or in a way that will let all future
  generations enjoy the bestest and latest version of the module forever.
  Gabor shows us the difference.
  --------------

  
  Carrying (mini)CPAN
  http://bit.ly/1mTJZJ2
 
  minicpan is a wonderful tool to have your own local copy of CPAN's latest
  releases. fishy shows how he uses it to always have his CPAN on a
  thumbdrive with him.

Discussion

  
  Do not use each
  http://bit.ly/1mTJZJ3
 
  "To each his own" folk wisdom tells us. Reini Urban would beg to differ,
  and warn us of the pitfalls of the 'each' iterator.

Code

  
  Perl web application security - HTTP headers
  http://bit.ly/1mTJYVg
 
  Security can be hard. But sometimes, it can be as easy as adding a wee
  little line to your HTTP header. David Farrell demonstrates.
  --------------

  
  Python's decorators in Perl
  http://bit.ly/1mSBfjt
 
  Programming in Perl, but missing Python's decorators? Fear not, Piotr
  Roszatycki has something for you!
  --------------

  
  Asynchronous web services with PSGI and IO::Async
  http://bit.ly/1mTJZZi
 
  When writing web services, asynchronous programming is almost certainly
  bound to come into the picture. Usually, it's nicely abstracted by a web
  framework. But, as dakkar shows here, rolling your own is not as painful
  as one would think.
  --------------

  
  Perl Encryption Primer: Passwords
  http://bit.ly/1mSBfjy
 
  From the Wumpus Cave, Timm Murray walks us to the crypt(),  and then
  through the various better encryption solutions out there.
  --------------

  
  Custom DBIx::Class ResultSets
  http://bit.ly/1mSBevT
 
  DBIx::Class's resultset classes are often slim, logic-less affairs. But
  Ovid shows us here how  they can also be used to create a much smarter
  interaction with the database.
  --------------

  
  The Onion Stand: Perl Dancer on Media Temple (gs)
  http://bit.ly/1mSBfzV
 
  Want to get your Dancer application running on a Media Temple's grid
  service? You're in luck: garu has a walk-through for you.
