=head1 NAME

perlfaq9 - Web, Email and Networking

=head1 VERSION

version 5.20180605

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This section deals with questions related to running web sites,
sending and receiving email as well as general networking.

=head2 Should I use a web framework?

Yes. If you are building a web site with any level of interactivity
(forms / users / databases), you
will want to use a framework to make handling requests
and responses easier.

If there is no interactivity then you may still want
to look at using something like L<Template Toolkit|https://metacpan.org/module/Template>
or L<Plack::Middleware::TemplateToolkit>
so maintenance of your HTML files (and other assets) is easier.

=head2 Which web framework should I use?
X<framework> X<CGI.pm> X<CGI> X<Catalyst> X<Dancer>

There is no simple answer to this question. Perl frameworks can run everything
from basic file servers and small scale intranets to massive multinational
multilingual websites that are the core to international businesses.

Below is a list of a few frameworks with comments which might help you in
making a decision, depending on your specific requirements. Start by reading
the docs, then ask questions on the relevant mailing list or IRC channel.

=over 4

=item L<Catalyst>

Strongly object-oriented and fully-featured with a long development history and
a large community and addon ecosystem. It is excellent for large and complex
applications, where you have full control over the server.

=item L<Dancer>

Young and free of legacy weight, providing a lightweight and easy to learn API.
Has a growing addon ecosystem. It is best used for smaller projects and
very easy to learn for beginners.

=item L<Mojolicious>

Fairly young with a focus on HTML5 and real-time web technologies such as
WebSockets.

=item L<Web::Simple>

Currently experimental, strongly object-oriented, built for speed and intended
as a toolkit for building micro web apps, custom frameworks or for tieing
together existing Plack-compatible web applications with one central dispatcher.

=back

All of these interact with or use L<Plack> which is worth understanding
the basics of when building a website in Perl (there is a lot of useful
L<Plack::Middleware|https://metacpan.org/search?q=plack%3A%3Amiddleware>).

=head2 What is Plack and PSGI?

L<PSGI> is the Perl Web Server Gateway Interface Specification, it is
a standard that many Perl web frameworks use, you should not need to
understand it to build a web site, the part you might want to use is L<Plack>.

L<Plack> is a set of tools for using the PSGI stack. It contains
L<middleware|https://metacpan.org/search?q=plack%3A%3Amiddleware>
components, a reference server and utilities for Web application frameworks.
Plack is like Ruby's Rack or Python's Paste for WSGI.

You could build a web site using L<Plack> and your own code,
but for anything other than a very basic web site, using a web framework
(that uses L<Plack>) is a better option.

=head2 How do I remove HTML from a string?

Use L<HTML::Strip>, or L<HTML::FormatText> which not only removes HTML
but also attempts to do a little simple formatting of the resulting
plain text.

=head2 How do I extract URLs?

L<HTML::SimpleLinkExtor> will extract URLs from HTML, it handles anchors,
images, objects, frames, and many other tags that can contain a URL.
If you need anything more complex, you can create your own subclass of
L<HTML::LinkExtor> or L<HTML::Parser>. You might even use
L<HTML::SimpleLinkExtor> as an example for something specifically
suited to your needs.

You can use L<URI::Find> to extract URLs from an arbitrary text document.

=head2 How do I fetch an HTML file?

(contributed by brian d foy)

Use the libwww-perl distribution. The L<LWP::Simple> module can fetch web
resources and give their content back to you as a string:

use LWP::Simple qw(get);

my $html = get( "http://www.example.com/index.html" );

It can also store the resource directly in a file:

use LWP::Simple qw(getstore);

getstore( "http://www.example.com/index.html", "foo.html" );

If you need to do something more complicated, you can use
L<LWP::UserAgent> module to create your own user-agent (e.g. browser)
to get the job done. If you want to simulate an interactive web
browser, you can use the L<WWW::Mechanize> module.

=head2 How do I automate an HTML form submission?

If you are doing something complex, such as moving through many pages
and forms or a web site, you can use L<WWW::Mechanize>. See its
documentation for all the details.

If you're submitting values using the GET method, create a URL and encode
the form using the C<query_form> method:

use LWP::Simple;
    use URI::URL;

my $url = url('L<http://www.perl.com/cgi-bin/cpan_mod')>;
    $url->query_form(module => 'DB_File', readme => 1);
    $content = get($url);

If you're using the POST method, create your own user agent and encode
the content appropriately.

use HTTP::Request::Common qw(POST);
    use LWP::UserAgent;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
    my $req = POST 'L<http://www.perl.com/cgi-bin/cpan_mod'>,
                   [ module => 'DB_File', readme => 1 ];
    my $content = $ua->request($req)->as_string;

=head2 How do I decode or create those %-encodings on the web?
X<URI> X<URI::Escape> X<RFC 2396>

Most of the time you should not need to do this as
your web framework, or if you are making a request,
the L<LWP> or other module would handle it for you.

To encode a string yourself, use the L<URI::Escape> module. The C<uri_escape>
function returns the escaped string:

my $original = "Colon : Hash # Percent %";

my $escaped = uri_escape( $original );

print "$escaped\n"; # 'Colon%20%3A%20Hash%20%23%20Percent%20%25'

To decode the string, use the C<uri_unescape> function:

my $unescaped = uri_unescape( $escaped );

print $unescaped; # back to original

Remember not to encode a full URI, you need to escape each
component separately and then join them together.

=head2 How do I redirect to another page?

Most Perl Web Frameworks will have a mechanism for doing this,
using the L<Catalyst> framework it would be:

$c->res->redirect($url);
    $c->detach();

If you are using Plack (which most frameworks do), then
L<Plack::Middleware::Rewrite> is worth looking at if you
are migrating from Apache or have URL's you want to always
redirect.

=head2 How do I put a password on my web pages?

See if the web framework you are using has an
authentication system and if that fits your needs.

Alternativly look at L<Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic>,
or one of the other L<Plack authentication|https://metacpan.org/search?q=plack+auth>
options.

=head2 How do I make sure users can't enter values into a form that causes my CGI script to do bad things?

(contributed by brian d foy)

You can't prevent people from sending your script bad data. Even if
you add some client-side checks, people may disable them or bypass
them completely. For instance, someone might use a module such as
L<LWP> to submit to your web site. If you want to prevent data that
try to use SQL injection or other sorts of attacks (and you should
want to), you have to not trust any data that enter your program.

The L<perlsec> documentation has general advice about data security.
If you are using the L<DBI> module, use placeholder to fill in data.
If you are running external programs with C<system> or C<exec>, use
the list forms. There are many other precautions that you should take,
too many to list here, and most of them fall under the category of not
using any data that you don't intend to use. Trust no one.

=head2 How do I parse a mail header?

Use the L<Email::MIME> module. It's well-tested and supports all the
craziness that you'll see in the real world (comment-folding whitespace,
encodings, comments, etc.).

use Email::MIME;

my $message = Email::MIME->new($rfc2822);
  my $subject = $message->header('Subject');
  my $from    = $message->header('From');

If you've already got some other kind of email object, consider passing
it to L<Email::Abstract> and then using its cast method to get an
L<Email::MIME> object:

my $abstract = Email::Abstract->new($mail_message_object);
  my $email_mime_object = $abstract->cast('Email::MIME');

=head2 How do I check a valid mail address?

(partly contributed by Aaron Sherman)

This isn't as simple a question as it sounds. There are two parts:

a) How do I verify that an email address is correctly formatted?

b) How do I verify that an email address targets a valid recipient?

Without sending mail to the address and seeing whether there's a human
on the other end to answer you, you cannot fully answer part I<b>, but
the L<Email::Valid> module will do both part I<a> and part I<b> as far
as you can in real-time.

Our best advice for verifying a person's mail address is to have them
enter their address twice, just as you normally do to change a
password. This usually weeds out typos. If both versions match, send
mail to that address with a personal message. If you get the message
back and they've followed your directions, you can be reasonably
assured that it's real.

A related strategy that's less open to forgery is to give them a PIN
(personal ID number). Record the address and PIN (best that it be a
random one) for later processing. In the mail you send, include a link to
your site with the PIN included. If the mail bounces, you know it's not
valid. If they don't click on the link, either they forged the address or
(assuming they got the message) following through wasn't important so you
don't need to worry about it.

=head2 How do I decode a MIME/BASE64 string?

The L<MIME::Base64> package handles this as well as the MIME/QP encoding.
Decoding base 64 becomes as simple as:

use MIME::Base64;
    my $decoded = decode_base64($encoded);

The L<Email::MIME> module can decode base 64-encoded email message parts
transparently so the developer doesn't need to worry about it.

=head2 How do I find the user's mail address?

Ask them for it. There are so many email providers available that it's
unlikely the local system has any idea how to determine a user's email address.

The exception is for organization-specific email (e.g. foo@yourcompany.com)
where policy can be codified in your program. In that case, you could look at
$ENV{USER}, $ENV{LOGNAME}, and getpwuid($<) in scalar context, like so:

my $user_name = getpwuid($<)

But you still cannot make assumptions about whether this is correct, unless
your policy says it is. You really are best off asking the user.

=head2 How do I send email?

Use the L<Email::MIME> and L<Email::Sender::Simple> modules, like so:

# first, create your message
  my $message = Email::MIME->create(
    header_str => [
      From    => 'you@example.com',
      To      => 'friend@example.com',
      Subject => 'Happy birthday!',
    ],
    attributes => {
      encoding => 'quoted-printable',
      charset  => 'utf-8',
    },
    body_str => "Happy birthday to you!\n",
  );

use Email::Sender::Simple qw(sendmail);
  sendmail($message);

By default, L<Email::Sender::Simple> will try `sendmail` first, if it exists
in your $PATH. This generally isn't the case. If there's a remote mail
server you use to send mail, consider investigating one of the Transport
classes. At time of writing, the available transports include:

=over 4

=item L<Email::Sender::Transport::Sendmail>

This is the default. If you can use the L<mail(1)> or L<mailx(1)>
program to send mail from the machine where your code runs, you should
be able to use this.

=item L<Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP>

This transport contacts a remote SMTP server over TCP. It optionally
uses TLS or SSL and can authenticate to the server via SASL.

=back

Telling L<Email::Sender::Simple> to use your transport is straightforward.

sendmail(
    $message,
    {
      transport => $email_sender_transport_object,
    }
  );

=head2 How do I use MIME to make an attachment to a mail message?

L<Email::MIME> directly supports multipart messages. L<Email::MIME>
objects themselves are parts and can be attached to other L<Email::MIME>
objects. Consult the L<Email::MIME> documentation for more information,
including all of the supported methods and examples of their use.

=head2 How do I read email?

Use the L<Email::Folder> module, like so:

use Email::Folder;

my $folder = Email::Folder->new('/path/to/email/folder');
  while(my $message = $folder->next_message) {
    # next_message returns Email::Simple objects, but we want
    # Email::MIME objects as they're more robust
    my $mime = Email::MIME->new($message->as_string);
  }

There are different classes in the L<Email::Folder> namespace for
supporting various mailbox types. Note that these modules are generally
rather limited and only support B<reading> rather than writing.

=head2 How do I find out my hostname, domainname, or IP address?
X<hostname, domainname, IP address, host, domain, hostfqdn, inet_ntoa,
gethostbyname, Socket, Net::Domain, Sys::Hostname>

(contributed by brian d foy)

The L<Net::Domain> module, which is part of the Standard Library starting
in Perl 5.7.3, can get you the fully qualified domain name (FQDN), the host
name, or the domain name.

use Net::Domain qw(hostname hostfqdn hostdomain);

my $host = hostfqdn();

The L<Sys::Hostname> module, part of the Standard Library, can also get the
hostname:

use Sys::Hostname;

$host = hostname();

The L<Sys::Hostname::Long> module takes a different approach and tries
harder to return the fully qualified hostname:

use Sys::Hostname::Long 'hostname_long';

my $hostname = hostname_long();

To get the IP address, you can use the C<gethostbyname> built-in function
to turn the name into a number. To turn that number into the dotted octet
form (a.b.c.d) that most people expect, use the C<inet_ntoa> function
from the L<Socket> module, which also comes with perl.

use Socket;

my $address = inet_ntoa(
        scalar gethostbyname( $host || 'localhost' )
    );

=head2 How do I fetch/put an (S)FTP file?

L<Net::FTP>, and L<Net::SFTP> allow you to interact with FTP and SFTP (Secure
FTP) servers.

=head2 How can I do RPC in Perl?

Use one of the RPC modules( L<https://metacpan.org/search?q=RPC> ).
