DESCRIPTION

This module enables you to embed mason scripts in your perl code. Using it is simple, much is shown in the above.

'as_subs' is an option. Invoking Inline::Mason with it may let you treat virtual files as subroutines and call them directly.

EXTERNAL MASON

You can also use mason scripts which reside in external files. All you need to do is pass their names when you use the module.

use Inline::Mason 'as_subs', [qw(external_mason.pl)];

When duplication happens, in-file mason is picked first.

SEE ALSO

This module uses Text::MicroMason as its backend instead of HTML::Mason, because it is much lighter and more accessible for this purpose. Please go to Text::MicroMason for details and its limitations.
