DESCRIPTION

Allows you to use Mason 2.x for your views.

VIEW CONFIGURATION

mason_root_class

Class to use for creating the Mason object. Defaults to 'Mason'.

MASON CONSTRUCTOR

Other than any special mentioned keys above, the configuration for this view will be passed directly into Mason->new.

There are a few defaults specific to this view:

comp_root

If not provided, defaults $c->path_to('root', 'comps').

data_dir

If not provided, defaults $c->path_to('data').

allow_globals

Automatically includes $c.

All other defaults are standard Mason.

GLOBALS

All components have access to $c, the current Catalyst context.

METHODS

process ($c)

Renders the component specified in $c->stash->{template} or, if not specified, $c->action.

The component path is prefixed with a '/' if it does not already have one, and Mason will automatically add a ".mc" extension - to change the latter, you can use

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        autoextend_request_path => 0
    );

Request arguments are taken from $c->stash.

render ($c, $path, \%args)

Renders the component $path with \%args, and returns the output.
