DESCRIPTION

The module is a plugin for App::ZofCMS that provides a simple interface to Google calculator (http://www.google.com/help/calculator.html). This documentation assumes you've read App::ZofCMS, App::ZofCMS::Config and App::ZofCMS::Template

FIRST-LEVEL ZofCMS TEMPLATE AND MAIN CONFIG FILE KEYS

plugins

plugins => [
    qw/GoogleCalculator/
],

Mandatory. You need to include the plugin in the list of plugins to execute.

plug_google_calculator

plug_google_calculator => {}, # run with all the defaults


plug_google_calculator => {  ## below are the default values
    from_query => 1,
    q_name     => 'calc',
    expr       => undef,
}

Mandatory. Takes a hashref as a value. To run with all the defaults, pass an empty hashref. Hashref's keys/values are as follows:

from_query

plug_google_calculator => {
    from_query  => 1,
}

Optional. Takes either true or false values. When set to a true value, the expression to calculate will be taken from query parameters and parameter's name will be derived from q_name argument (see below). When set to a false value, the expression will be taken from expr argument (see below) directly. Defaults to: 1

q_name

plug_google_calculator => {
    q_name     => 'calc',

Optional. When from_query argument is set to a true value, specifies the name of the query parameter from which to gather the expression to calculate. Defaults to: calc

expr

plug_google_calculator => {
    expr       => '2*2',
}

plug_google_calculator => {
    expr       => sub {
        my ( $t, $q, $config ) =  @_;
        return '2' . $q->{currency} ' in CAD';
    },
}

Optional. When from_query argument is set to a false value, specifies the expression to calculate. Takes either a literal expression as a string or a subref as a value. When set to a subref, subref will be executed and its return value will be assigned to expr as if it was already there (note, undefs will cause the plugin to stop further processing). The sub's @_ will contain the following (in that order): ZofCMS Template hashref, query parameters hashref and App::ZofCMS::Config object. Defaults to: undef

PLUGIN OUTPUT

<tmpl_if name='plug_google_calculator_error'>
    <p class="error">Got error: <tmpl_var escape='html' name='plug_google_calculator_error'></p>
<tmpl_else>
    <p>Result: <tmpl_var escape='html' name='plug_google_calculator'></p>
</tmpl_if>

plug_google_calculator

<p>Result: <tmpl_var escape='html' name='plug_google_calculator'></p>

If result was calculated successfully, the plugin will set $t->{t}{plug_google_calculator} to the result string where $t is ZofCMS Template hashref.

plug_google_calculator_error

<tmpl_if name='plug_google_calculator_error'>
    <p class="error">Got error: <tmpl_var escape='html' name='plug_google_calculator_error'></p>
</tmpl_if>

If an error occured during the calculation, $t->{t}{plug_google_calculator_error} will be set to the error message where $t is ZofCMS Template hashref.
