NAME

Helix::Core::Registry - global data storage for Helix Framework.

SYNOPSIS

Somewhere in application controllers:

    my $r = Helix::Core::Registry->get_instance;
    $r->cgi->send_header;

    my $tpl = $r->loader->get_object("Helix::Driver::Template");
    $tpl->parse("index.tpl");
    $tpl->render;

DESCRIPTION

The Helix::Core::Registry class creates a global data storage object for the whole Helix Framework application. It is instantiated and filled in during applicaton initialization and request processing flow. You can use it anywhere in application.

In Helix Framework documentation examples Helix::Core::Registry is referred as $r variable.

Mount points

During initialization and request handling application mounts each vital object to system registry to allow other application parts to use them later. This is the list of all mount points, that are created by Helix::Application:

$r->config

Application configuration object (see "Load application configuration" in Helix::Application and Helix::Core::Config module documentation).

$r->cgi

CGI object (see Helix::Core::CGI for more information).

$r->loader

Driver loader object (see Helix::Core::Loader documentation).

METHODS

new()

Class constructor. Creates global data storage.

get_instance()

Returns registry instance. Class must be instantiated first.

free()
