NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::Args - gives you back the request parameters as a simple %args hash, even if it's posted in json.

VERSION

version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

Route something like this:

package App;
use Mojo::Base 'Mojolicious';

sub startup {
    my $self = shift;

    $self->plugin( 'Mojolicious::Plugin::Args' );

    my $r = $self->routes;

    $r->any( '/example/test' )->to( 'example#test' );
}

Here's the controller:

package App::Example;
use Mojo::Base 'Mojolicious::Controller';

sub test {
    my $self = shift;
    my %args = $self->args;

    $self->log->debug( 'args', $self->dumper( \%args ) );
    $self->render( json => \%args );
}

Now send a POST to it (jQuery example):

$.ajax( {
    type: 'POST'
    ,url: '/example/test'
    ,contentType: 'application/json'
    ,dataType: 'json'
    ,data: JSON.stringify( { foo: 'bar' } )
} );

Inspect the response. Keen. Try a GET on the endpoint with ".json" typed (/example/test.json) and a json query string variable (?json=...). Same result.

$.ajax( {
    type: 'GET'
    ,url: '/example/test.json?json='+ JSON.stringify( { foo: 'bar' } )
} );

Also, try regular query string vars (e.g. ?foo=bar&baz=foo) and form-url-encoded POST stuff. Works the same. All-in-one: no more dealing with the stupid param helper.
