NAME

Catalyst::Component::ACCEPT_CONTEXT - Make the current Catalyst request context available in Models and Views.

VERSION

Version 0.03

SYNOPSIS

Models and Views don't usually have access to the request object, since they probably don't really need it. Sometimes, however, having the request context available outside of Controllers makes your application cleaner. If that's the case, just use this module as a base class:

package MyApp::Model::Foobar;
use base qw|Catalyst::Component::ACCEPT_CONTEXT Catalyst::Model|;

Then, you'll be able to get the current request object from within your model:

sub do_something {
    my $self = shift;
    print "The current URL is ". $self->context->req->uri->as_string;
}

METHODS

context

Returns the current request context.

ACCEPT_CONTEXT

Catalyst calls this method to give the current context to your model. You should never call it directly.

See Catalyst::Component for details.

COMPONENT

Overridden to use initial application object as context before a request.
