NAME

Rose::DBx::Garden::Catalyst::View - base View class

DESCRIPTION

Rose::DBx::Garden::Catalyst::View is a subclass of Catalyst::View::TT.

CONFIGURATION

Configuration is the same as with Catalyst::View::TT. Read those docs.

The default config here is:

__PACKAGE__->config(
   TEMPLATE_EXTENSION => '.tt',
   PRE_PROCESS        => 'rdgc/tt_config.tt',
   WRAPPER            => 'rdgc/wrapper.tt',
);

METHODS

The following methods are implemented in this class:

new

Overrides base new() method. Sets INCLUDE_PATH to the base Rose::DBx::Garden::Catalyst::TT .tt files plus your local app root. This means you can override the default .tt behaviour by putting a .tt file with the same name in your root template dir.

For example, to customize your wrapper.tt file, just copy the default one from the Rose/DBx/Garden/Catalyst/TT/rdgc/wrapper.tt in @INC and put it in root/rdgc/wrapper.tt. Likewise, you can set up a global config file by creating a root/rdgc/tt_config.tt file and putting your MACROs and other TT stuff in there.

template_vars

Overrides base method to add some other default variables.

  • The yui variable is a Rose::DBx::Garden::Catalyst::YUI object.

  • The page variable is a hashref with members js and css. It is used by rdgc/page_head_maker.tt to ease the addition of per-request .js and .css files. Stuff the base file name into the array in each .tt file to get those files included in the page header.

  • The static_url variable defaults to $c->uri_for('/static'). You can override that in $c->config() by setting a 'static_url' value to whatever base URL you wish. Ideal for serving your static content from different URL than your dynamic content.
