Myco (programming)

myco is a framework for developing software applications in the Perl programming language.

Features

The myco framework supports:

• Object "lifecycle" services:
  • accessors
  • data validation
  • persistence
  • templates (vaguely akin to java interfaces)
  • metadata (a.k.a. introspection), with metadata inheritance
  • role-based access control
  • logging
• Unit testing

• Several application add-ons are pending for public release, including:
  • Metadata driven user interfaces (a Model-View-Controller implementation, usable in both HTML::Mason and cgi script contexts)
  • An Identity management Suite, IdentiProv

Initital development of myco took place between 2000 and 2003 at Eastern Nazarene College. IdentiProv has been in production use at the college since 2003.
