DESCRIPTION

This is a simple plugin that lets a developer set and forget e-mail links in Catalyst

INTERFACE

email_page_url

Returns a link in the form of: mailto:webmaster@example.com?subject=User Report for http://yours.com/

The mailto subject is escaped using uri_escape_utf8 from URI::Escape and http://yours.com/ is the current pages uri

email_page_body

Allows you to e-mail the whole page to someone once you have the right template. Used the same way as email_page_url

To do.

email_page_anchor

Allows you to e-mail a page anchor. Used the same way as email_page_url

To do.

_construct_url

Internal routine.

Reads in the various configuration settings and constructs the mailto link. See "CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT"

DIAGNOSTICS

    perl -MCPAN -e shell

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

Catalyst::Plugin::Email::Page requires no configuration files or environment variables, but you'd best change the mailto address.

Configuring with YAML

Set Configuration to be loaded via Config.yml in YourApp.pm

    use YAML qw(LoadFile);
    use Path::Class 'file';

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        LoadFile(
            file(__PACKAGE__->config->{home}, 'Config.yml')
        )
    );

None reported.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Initial Bug ID 17248, as reported by CPAN ID DAKKAR

Fixed in version 0.25, which now escapes the mailto subject, hence the URI::Escape requirement.
