AxKit::App::TABOO Description

AxKit::App::TABOO is an object oriented publishing aramework for AxKit. AxKit::App::TABOO is an object oriented publishing framework for AxKit.AxKit::App::TABOO is a object oriented approach to creating a publishing system on the top of AxKit, the XML Application Server. The two O's thus stands for Object Oriented, AB for AxKit-Based. I don't know what the T stands for yet, suggestions are welcome!This file holds only a few session and authentication functions, that I didn't quite knew where to put. This may change.DESIGN PHILOSOPHYThere are three main ideas that forms the basis for TABOO:1. The data should be abstracted to objects so that the AxKit things never have to deal with where and how the data are stored.2. URIs should be sensible and human-readable, reflect what kind of content you will see, and easy to maintain and independent of underlying server code.3. Use providers for all the real content that's served to the user. I like the abstraction Providers give for URIs, and so is an excellent vehicle to achieve the above goal. Also, they provide the cleanest separation of markup from code.To detail this: I noticed while looking at other people's code, that though it was a lot of interesting code, it would be rather hard to integrate all the interesting parts into a coherent whole. That's why I made the fundamental design choice with TABOO that all data is to be abstracted to objects. Furthermore, everybody has their own way of storing data, and scattered files or different databases didn't seem right to me.With TABOO, everything that interacts with AxKit just interacts with the Data objects. That means, if you don't want to store things in the PostgreSQL database my Data objects use, you could always subclass it, rewrite the classes or whatever. You would mostly just have to rewrite the load method. It is also the Data object's job to create XML of its own data, save itself, etc.The intention is to write Data objects for every kind of thing you might want to do. From the start, there will be Slashdot-type stories of varying length, with comments. These are ever-changing in the sense that people can come in an add comments at any time.It is the intention, however, that TABOO should be a framework where one can add many very different things.TABOO makes extensive use of Providers. That is mostly because I like the abstraction and direct control of URIs that Providers provide. It makes it easy to create a framework where URIs are sensible and should be easy to maintain for foreseeable future. Also, there is no markup in the code, that's also rather important to make it maintainable. Requirements: · Perl
