[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/samgwise/p6-PowerNap.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/samgwise/p6-PowerNap) NAME ==== PowerNap - A short but strict REST service framework SYNOPSIS ======== use PowerNap; DESCRIPTION =========== PowerNap is simple way to write strict and concise restful web APIs. The core of PowerNap is the PowerNap::Controller. This role provides a number of default methods and a verb dispatcher. Given a `PowerNap::Verb` `Enum` and a `Map` the dispatcher routes to the relevant method and attempts to call the method with the given `Map`. If there is a type mismatch or missing required pairs a 501 response will be returned, 500 if any other exception is thrown and the method controlls any other responses. All returned values are classes which implement the `PowerNap::Result` role. These result objects can be introspected as to their error code, if they are an error and impliment an `.ok(Str --> Map)` method to allow localised error messages in chained method calls. All result objects implemt the `Serialise::Map` ([see](http://modules.perl6.org/dist/Serialise::Map:cpan:SAMGWISE)), as such calling `.to-map(--> Map).&to-json` will provide a serialised response. When selecting response codes for your controller methods you should consider recent [HTTP RFCs](https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html) or similar.
