JavaScript Object Request Broker (JOR) is a technology used for facilitating communication between objects in JavaScript. It allows objects to interact with each other across different machines and programming languages. JOR helps simplify complex distributed systems by providing a standardized way to share data and resources.
To use the module, the user must first call the JSORB and related packages, such as the server and dispatcher. This is followed by creating code to expose over remote procedure call (RPC). In this example, a package called Math::Simple is created to add two integers.
The module's server is then running, and the user may test it by entering an expression in the URL, which returns a JSON response showing the calculation. Alternatively, the JavaScript client library may be used to call the server from a web browser.
Overall, JSORB offers some features but should be used cautiously due to the possibility of unintended consequences. The process of setting up the module involves multiple steps, but the module's functionality could prove useful for developers looking for a way to expose Perl code over RPCs.
