🕸️🐪 Welcome to WebPerl!
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
|
|
WebPerl uses the power of [WebAssembly](https://webassembly.org/) and
|
|
[Emscripten](http://emscripten.org/) to let you run Perl 5 in the browser!
|
|
|
|
WebPerl does not translate your Perl code to JavaScript, instead, it is
|
|
a port of the `perl` binary to WebAssembly, so that you have the full
|
|
power of Perl at your disposal!
|
|
|
|
**Notice: WebPerl is very much in beta.**
|
|
Some things may not work yet, and parts of the API may still change.
|
|
Your feedback is always appreciated!

```html
|
|
<script src="webperl.js"></script>
|
|
<script type="text/perl">
|
|
|
|
print "Hello, Perl World!\n"; # goes to JavaScript console by default
|
|
|
|
js('document')->getElementById('my_button')
|
|
->addEventListener('click', sub {
|
|
js('window')->alert("You clicked the button!");
|
|
} );
|
|
</script>
|
|
```

Quick Start
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- Prerequisites: `perl` (a recent version is recommended, e.g. v5.26 and up),
|
|
[`plackup` from Plack](https://metacpan.org/pod/distribution/Plack/script/plackup),
|
|
and [Cpanel::JSON::XS](https://metacpan.org/pod/Cpanel::JSON::XS).
|
|
|
|
- In a shell:
|
|
|
|
$ wget https://github.com/haukex/webperl/releases/download/v0.05-beta/webperl_prebuilt_v0.05-beta.zip
|
|
$ unzip webperl_prebuilt_v0.05-beta.zip
|
|
$ cd webperl_prebuilt_v0.05-beta
|
|
$ plackup webperl.psgi
|
|
HTTP::Server::PSGI: Accepting connections at http://0:5000/
|
|
|
|
- Then point your browser at
|
|
<http://localhost:5000/webperl_demo.html> or
|
|
<http://localhost:5000/mini_ide/webperl_mini_ide.html>,
|
|
and have a look at the HTML source of `webperl_demo.html`.
|
|
|
|
You may also host the contents of the above ZIP archive on a webserver of your choice,
|
|
as described in [Using WebPerl](using.html). (Note: In `webperl_demo.html`, you'll
|
|
likely see "AJAX Failed!", which is to be expected since your webserver won't
|
|
know how to handle the example AJAX request.)
|
|
|
|
Have fun! ️🐪
