NAME

Amon2 - lightweight web application framework

SYNOPSIS

package MyApp;
use parent qw/Amon2/;
use Amon2::Config::Simple;
sub load_config { Amon2::Config::Simple->load(shift) }

DESCRIPTION

Amon2 is simple, readable, extensible, STABLE, FAST web application framework based on Plack.

METHODS

CLASS METHODS for Amon2 class

• my $c = MyApp->context();

  Get the context object.

• MyApp->set_context($c)

  Set your context object(INTERNAL USE ONLY).

CLASS METHODS for inherited class

• MyApp->config()

  This method returns configuration information. It is generated by MyApp->load_config().

• MyApp->mode_name()

  This is a mode name for Amon2. The default implementation of this method is:

    sub mode_name { $ENV{PLACK_ENV} }
  

  You can override this method if you want to determine the mode by other method.

• MyApp->new()

  Create new context object.

• MyApp->bootstrap()

    my $c = MyApp->bootstrap();
  

  Create new context object and set it to global context. When you are writing CLI script, setup the global context object by this method.

• MyApp->base_dir()

  This method returns the application base directory.

• MyApp->load_plugin($module_name[, \%config])

  This method loads the plugin for the application.

  $module_name package name of the plugin. You can write it as two form like DBIx::Class:

    __PACKAGE__->load_plugin("Web::HTTPSession");    # => loads Amon2::Plugin::Web::HTTPSession
  

  If you want to load a plugin in your own name space, use the '+' character before a package name, like following: __PACKAGE__->load_plugin("+MyApp::Plugin::Foo"); # => loads MyApp::Plugin::Foo

• MyApp->load_plugins($module_name[, \%config ], ...)

  Load multiple plugins at one time.

  If you want to load a plugin in your own name space, use the '+' character before a package name like following:

    __PACKAGE__->load_plugins("+MyApp::Plugin::Foo"); # => loads MyApp::Plugin::Foo
  

• MyApp->load_config()

  You can get a configuration hashref from config/$ENV{PLACK_ENV}.pl. You can override this method for customizing configuration loading method.

• MyApp->add_config()

  DEPRECATED.

• MyApp->debug_mode()

  ((EXPERIMENTAL))

  This method returns a boolean value. It returns true when $ENV{AMON2_DEBUG} is true value, false otherwise.

  You can override this method if you need.

PROJECT LOCAL MODE

THIS MODE IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL

Normally, Amon2's context is stored in a global variable.

This module makes the context to project local.

It means, normally context class using Amon2 use $Amon2::CONTEXT in each project, but context class using ["PROJECT LOCAL MODE"](#PROJECT LOCAL MODE) use $MyApp::CONTEXT.

It means you can't use code depend <Amon2-context> and <Amon2-context>> under this mode.>

NOTES ABOUT create_request

Older Amon2::Web::Request has only 1 argument like following, it uses Amon2->context to get encoding:

sub create_request {
    my ($class, $env) = @_;
    Amon2::Web::Request->new($env);
}

If you want to use ["PROJECT LOCAL MODE"](#PROJECT LOCAL MODE), you need to pass class name of context class, as following:

sub create_request {
    my ($class, $env) = @_;
    Amon2::Web::Request->new($env, $class);
}

METHODS

This module inserts 3 methods to your context class.

• MyApp->context()

  Shorthand for $MyApp::CONTEXT

• MyApp->set_context($context)

  It's the same as:

    $MyApp::CONTEXT = $context
  

• my $guard = MyApp->context_guard()

  Create new context guard class.

  It's the same as:

    Amon2::ContextGuard->new(shift, \$MyApp::CONTEXT);
