You can try any of the web framework for creating RESTful API

You can try Mojolicious http://mojolicio.us/perldoc or
you can try dancer https://metacpan.org/pod/Dancer2::Cookbook#Writing-a-REST-application
https://metacpan.org/pod/Dancer2::Tutorial

Suggestion for print format string based on configuration in perl?

I've a program that needs to print some fields formatted in different ways according to some conditions. The solution I come up is working, but I'm looking for a suggestion for something more elegant.

What I do is something like the following:

print sprintf $formats[ $condition ], @fields;

where $condition is the condition used to select a sprintf format string out of an array (@formats) that contains something like:

my @formats = (
 qw( %09d %-1s %03d ... )
, qw(%-4s %1s %09d %1s %-150s %-4s %011d)
, ...
);

Now, while this approach is working really fine, it is a little hard to decode, especially considering that I've got some formats with 50+ fields. I don't believe that using Perl formats is a solution, it will provide a quite longer configuration (consider I've got even fields specified as "-100%s"!).

Any suggestion to get a more readable code?

I have this series of numbers:

349,350,351,352,353,354,355,356,357,358,359,360,361,362,363,364,365,366,367,368,369,370,371,372,
373,374,375,376,377,378,379,380,381,382,383,384,385,386,387,388,389,390,391,392,393,394,395,396,
425,426,427,428,429,430,431,432,433,434,435,436,437,438,439,440,441,442,443,444,445,446,447,448,
449,450,451,452,453,454,455,456,457,458,459,460,461,462,463,464,465,466,467,468,469,470,471,472,
473,474,475,476,477,478,479,480,481,482,483,484,485,486,487,488,489,490,491,492,493,494,495,496

there are two ranges in there: 349-396, 425-496. Any hints as to how to write a perl code to represent the series of numbers as a range?

How to Auto Generate range of years using perl?

I have this simple script to automatically print HTML selection option.

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
for (reverse(1943 .. 1991)){
  print "$_n";}

I need to print all the years between 18 and 73 without hard coding the range in the for loop as in the above. I am considering the use of localtime to compute the current year as below $yr=(localtime), but I cant think of an easy way to achieved what I want to do.
