DESCRIPTION
Apache2::DirBasedHandler::TT, is an subclass of Apache2::DirBasedHandler with modified to allow easy use of Template Toolkit templates for content generation.
init
init
calls get_tt to get the template object, and stuffs it into the hash it gets back from the super class.
get_tt
get_tt
returns a Template Toolkit object, and a hash reference of variables which will be passed into the TT process call. You should really override this function with to create the Template object appropriate to your environment.
process_template
process_template
is a helper function to generate a page based using the template object, variables, and template passed in. It sets the content_type of the response to the value of the fifth argument.
