New book by Brian Di Foy: "Mojolicious Web Clients"

The book will be useful to programmers and system administrators. To read it, it is enough to know the basics of Perl. Once you've mastered it, you'll have a powerful and expressive tool that will help you simplify your day-to-day tasks.

The book highlights:

• HTTP Basics
• JSON parsing
• Parsing XML and HTML
• CSS selectors
• Direct execution of HTTP requests, authentication and work with cookies
• Executing non-blocking requests
• Promises
• Writing one-liners and the ojo module. Some examples:

  % perl -Mojo -E 'g(shift)->save_to("test.html")' mojolicious.org
  % mojo get https://www.mojolicious.org a attr href

  The price of the book is more than popular and I have already looked through it. I loved it. The material is presented in an accessible and interesting way. A lot of informative digressions about why this or that tool is implemented in this way.

  Brian promises to update the tutorial several times a year and is currently working on the next book dedicated to the web framework itself.
