Perl Folks,
I need to set up JSON web services (server side) as a simple interface to an existing database infrastructure. Can anyone recommend any building blocks, standards, etc.?
I'm going to write it in Perl and need to get it going in a few days. If I don't get it up and running we are most likely going to implement it as .Net services
Goals
- Must have authentication
- I like Apache basic authentication but I see Google is doing signature-based.
- Must have both Read and Write services
- I've never use Write JSON services. I think it's just a PUT with STDIN JSON data package
- I guess reads are just GET URLs with a restful structure? Any hints on how to organize them (fine grained vs. course grained)
How do you document for clients? Is there a WSDL equivalent for JSON?
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks,
Mike
