NAME
Mojolicious::Routes::Route - Route
SYNOPSIS
use Mojolicious::Routes::Route;
my $r = Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new;DESCRIPTION
Mojolicious::Routes::Route is the route container used by Mojolicious::Routes.
ATTRIBUTES
Mojolicious::Routes::Route implements the following attributes.
children
my $children = $r->children;
$r = $r->children([Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new]);The children of this route, used for nesting routes.
inline
my $bool = $r->inline;
$r = $r->inline($bool);Allow "under" semantics for this route.
parent
my $parent = $r->parent;
$r = $r->parent(Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new);The parent of this route, usually a Mojolicious::Routes::Route object. Note that this attribute is weakened.
partial
my $bool = $r->partial;
$r = $r->partial($bool);Route has no specific end, remaining characters will be captured in path.
pattern
my $pattern = $r->pattern;
$r = $r->pattern(Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern->new);Pattern for this route, defaults to a Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern object.
METHODS
Mojolicious::Routes::Route inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.
add_child
$r = $r->add_child(Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new);Add a child to this route, it will be automatically removed from its current parent if necessary.
# Reattach route
$r->add_child($r->find('foo'));any
my $route = $r->any;
my $route = $r->any('/:foo');
my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => sub ($c) {...});
my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => sub ($c) {...} => 'name');
my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => {foo => 'bar'} => sub ($c) {...});
my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/] => sub ($c) {...});
my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => (agent => qr/Firefox/) => sub ($c) {...});
my $route = $r->any(['GET', 'POST'] => '/:foo' => sub ($c) {...});
my $route = $r->any(['GET', 'POST'] => '/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/]);Generate Mojolicious::Routes::Route object matching any of the listed HTTP request methods or all.
# Route with pattern and destination
$r->any('/user')->to('user#whatever');All arguments are optional, but some have to appear in a certain order, like the two supported array reference values, which contain the HTTP methods to match and restrictive placeholders.
# Route with HTTP methods, pattern, restrictive placeholders and destination
$r->any(['DELETE', 'PUT'] => '/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/])->to('foo#bar');There are also two supported string values, containing the route pattern and the route name, defaulting to the pattern / and a name based on the pattern.
# Route with pattern, name and destination
$r->any('/:foo' => 'foo_route')->to('foo#bar');An arbitrary number of key/value pairs in between the route pattern and name can be used to specify route conditions.
# Route with pattern, condition and destination
$r->any('/' => (agent => qr/Firefox/))->to('foo#bar');A hash reference is used to specify optional placeholders and default values for the stash.
# Route with pattern, optional placeholder and destination
$r->any('/:foo' => {foo => 'bar'})->to('foo#bar');And a code reference can be used to specify a cb value to be merged into the default values for the stash.
# Route with pattern and a closure as destination
$r->any('/:foo' => sub ($c) {
$c->render(text => 'Hello World!');
});See Mojolicious::Guides::Tutorial and Mojolicious::Guides::Routing for more information.

has_websocket
my $bool = $r->has_websocket;Check if this route has a WebSocket ancestor and cache the result for future checks.
is_endpoint
my $bool = $r->is_endpoint;Check if this route qualifies as an endpoint.
is_websocket
my $bool = $r->is_websocket;Check if this route is a WebSocket.
name
