DESCRIPTION
The module automatically setups an instance of Apache2 httpd server and destroys it when the perl script exits.

FUNCTIONS

  new
Creates and runs the httpd server. Httpd is terminated when the returned object is DESTROYed. The function accepts following arguments, which can also be read and/or be set through the accessors of the same name.

listen

The address to which the httpd binds to. Corresponds to the "Listen" configuration directive of Apache. The default value is "127.0.0.1:<whatever_port_that_was_unused>".

server_root

The "ServerRoot" runtime directive. Set to current working directory if omitted.

custom_conf

Application-specific configuration passed that will be written to the configuration file of Apache. Default is none.

required_modules

An arrayref to specify the required apache modules. If any module are specified, "Test::Httpd::Apache2" will check the list of statically-compiled-in and dynamically-aviable modules and load the necessary modules automatically. Module names should be specified excluding the "mod_" prefix and ".so" suffix. For example, "auth_basic_module" should be specified as "auth_basic". Default is an empty arrayref.

search_paths

Paths to look for the httpd server in addition to the PATH environment variable. The default is: /usr/sbin, /usr/local/sbin, /usr/local/apache/bin.

pid

the read-only accessor returns pid of the httpd server or undef if it is not running

  start
the instance method starts the httpd server

  stop
the instance method stops the httpd server
