DESCRIPTION

This module is a Mojolicious plugin for easy use of Template Toolkit. It adds a "tt" handler and provides a "render_tt" helper method. It allows for inline TT and all the usual Template complexities.

SETUP

When setting up the plugin, you need to provide a hashref of settings that are in 3 sections.

{
    config   => {},
    settings => {},
    context  => {},
}

config

These are the configuration settings that get passed directly to Template within it's new() method. (See Template documentation for details.)

settings

These are settings specific to this plugin, all of which are optional.

{
    inline_template => 'inline',
    controller      => 'c',
    error_handler   => sub {},
}

The "inline_template" setting lets you define what keyword you can use to define an inline template. It defaults to "inline".

$self->render_tt(
    inline => 'The answer to life, the [% universe | upper %], and [% everything.upper %] is [% answer %].',
    answer => 42, everything => 'everything', universe => 'universe',
);

The "controller" settings lets your defined what keyword you can use within your TT templates that will be a reference to the Mojolicious controller.

The "error_handler" setting lets you provide an optional subroutine reference that will get called if there is any TT errors.

error_handler => sub {
    my ( $controller, $renderer, $app, $template ) = @_;

    unless (
        $template->error and (
            $template->error eq 'file error - exception.html.tt: not found' or
            $template->error eq 'file error - exception.' . $app->mode . '.html.tt: not found'
        )
    ) {
        $$output = $template->error;
        $controller->res->headers->content_type('text/plain');

        $controller->log->error( $template->error );
        $controller->rendered(
            ( $template->error and $template->error =~ /not found/ ) ? 404 : 500
        );
    }
}

context

This optional setting gives you access to setting vmethods and other things that require TT's context.

context => sub {
    my ($context) = @_;
    $context->define_vmethod( 'scalar', 'upper', sub { return uc shift } );
},
