NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::JSUrlFor - Mojolicious "url_for" helper for javascript

SYNOPSIS

# Mojolicious
$self->plugin('JSUrlFor');

# Mojolicious::Lite
plugin 'JSUrlFor';

# In you application
my $r = $self->routes;
$r->get('/messages/:message_id')->to('messages#show')->name('messages_show');

# In your layout template
<head>
<%= js_url_for%>
</head>

# In your javascript
$.getJSON( url_for( 'messages_show', {message_id: 123} ), params, function() { ... } )


# Instead of helper you can use generator for generating static file
./your_app.pl generate js_url_for public/static/url_for.js

 # And then in your layout template
<head>
  <script type="text/javascript" src='/static/url_for.js'> </script>
</head>

DESCRIPTION

I like Mojlicious routes. And one feature that I like most is that you can name your routes. So, you can change your routes without rewriting a single line of dependent code. Of course this works if you use routes names in all of your code. You can use routes name everywhere except... javascript. But with <LMojolicious::Plugin::JSUrlFor> you can use routes names really everywhere.

Mojolicious::Plugin::JSUrlFor contains only one helper that add ulr_for function to your client side javascript.

HELPERS

js_url_for

In templates <%= js_url_for %>

This helper will add url_for function to your client side javascript.

In "production" mode this helper will cache generated code for javascript "url_for" function

GENERATORS

js_url_for

./your_app.pl generate js_url_for $relative_file_name

This command will create $relative_file_name file with the same content as "js_url_for" helper creates. Then you should include this file into your layout template with "script" tag.

METHODS

Mojolicious::Plugin::JSUrlFor inherits all methods from Mojolicious::Plugin and implements the following new ones.

register

$plugin->register;

Register plugin in Mojolicious application.
