Mojo::Manual::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
QUESTIONS
Do i have to use Mojo::Base?
Absolutely not, you could just use any other accessor generator in your modules, Mojo::Base is just a base class and will stay out of your way.
Do i have to use Mojo::Template?
Not at all, it is just a convenient default option and can be replaced with any other template engine out there.
Why do my programs break if i use content
instead of body
?
The content
attribute of Mojo::Message has to contain a special Mojo::Content object which offers advanced HTTP body manipulation functions. The body
method is a wrapper around that and what you will want to use in most cases.
$tx->res->body('Hello World!');
If you want to send a file for example, then content
would be the right choice.
my $file = Mojo::File->new;
$file->file_name('/etc/passwd');
$tx->res->content->file($file);
