[Koha-devel] Time to think Plack?

Hi everyone, I just wanted to raise some questions, that might be worth
thinking about at the KohaCon16 hackfest, or just here.

Koha has been a CGI app for ages. And we slowly made it work under Plack to
gain performance. We did so, by running it inside a CGI emulation context
(i.e. CGI::Emulate::PSGI [1]). We even wired all stuff so packages can take
advantage of Plack out of the box (just not enabled by default, that'd be a
next future step).

We then introduced a Mojolicious implementation of (a beggining of) a REST
API.

Is it time to start thinking of Koha as a Plack app and focus on that?


[1] Through Plack::App::CGIBin actually.
