NAME

Catalyst::Manual::Cookbook - Cooking with Catalyst

DESCRIPTION

Yummy!

RECIPES

Force debug screen

You can force Catalyst to display the debug screen at the end of the request by placing a die() call in the _end action.

__PACKAGE__->action(
    '!end' => sub {
        my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
        die "testing";
    }
);

Scaffolding

Scaffolding is very simple with Catalyst. Just use Catalyst::Model::CDBI::CRUD as baseclass.

# lib/MyApp/Model/CDBI.pm
package MyApp::Model::CDBI;

use strict;
use base 'Catalyst::Model::CDBI::CRUD';

__PACKAGE__->config(
    dsn           => 'dbi:SQLite:/tmp/myapp.db',
    relationships => 1
);

1;

# lib/MyApp.pm
package MyApp;

use Catalyst 'FormValidator';

__PACKAGE__->config(
    name => 'My Application',
    root => '/home/joeuser/myapp/root'
);

__PACKAGE__->action(
    'table' => sub {
        my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
        $c->form( optional => [ MyApp::Model::CDBI::Table->columns ] );
        $c->forward('MyApp::Model::CDBI::Table');
    }
);

1;

Modify the $c->form() parameters to match your needs, and don't forget to copy the templates. ;)
