NAME

Dancer::Plugin::Ajax - a plugin for adding Ajax route handlers

SYNOPSIS

package MyWebApp;

use Dancer;
use Dancer::Plugin::Ajax;

ajax '/check_for_update' => sub {
    # ... some Ajax code
};

dance;

DESCRIPTION

The ajax keyword which is exported by this plugin allow you to define a route handler optimized for Ajax queries.

The route handler code will be compiled to behave like the following:

• Pass if the request header X-Requested-With doesnt equal XMLHttpRequest

• Disable the layout

• The action built matches POST / GET requests.

CONFIGURATION

By default the plugin will use a content-type of 'text/xml' but this can be overwritten with plugin setting 'content_type'.

Here is example to use JSON:

plugins:
  'Ajax':
    content_type: 'application/json'
