Set up the skeleton of a CGI::Application-based project, including a module, some templates and some automated tests.

By default the skeleton files will come within a shared directory where Module::Starter::Plugin::CGIApp is stored. See File::ShareDir for more information on how this works.

cgiapp-starter will look for a configuration file before reading its command line parameters. The default location is \*(C`$HOME/.module-starter/config\*(C' but if the \s-1MODULE_STARTER_DIR\s0 environment variable is set, cgiapp-starter will look for \*(C`config\*(C' in that directory.

The configuration file is just a list of names and values, separated by colons. Values that take lists are just space separated. A sample configuration file might read:

author: Jaldhar H. Vyas email: [email protected] template_dir: ~/.module-starter/cgiapp/templates colors: red green blue

This format may become more elaborate in the future, but a file of this type should remain valid.
