Porting Bugzilla to Mojolicious - Dylan Hardison
Channel: Nordic Perl Workshop and Mojoconf
Date: 2018-09-11

Bugzilla is a 20 year old perl application. Up until this year, it was pretty much stuck as running as CGI or under mod_perl. There's been experimental support for running it under PSGI-CGI Emulation, but that hasn't made it to a release.

Because of many factors, it was decided to "port" it to Mojolicious. In the short term this still implies emulating CGI, but it leads to a clear path of refactoring the different parts as mojolicious controllers.

More importantly, Mojolicious gives us new super powers.
