NAME

CatalystX::CRUD::YUI::View - base View class

SYNOPSIS

 # TODO

DESCRIPTION

 # TODO

CONFIGURATION

Configuration is the same as with Catalyst::View::TT. Read those docs.

The default config here is:

 __PACKAGE__->config(
    TEMPLATE_EXTENSION => '.tt',
    PRE_PROCESS        => 'crud/tt_config.tt',
    WRAPPER            => 'crud/wrapper.tt',
 );

METHODS

Only new or overridden method are documented here.

new

Overrides base new() method. Sets INCLUDE_PATH to the base CatalystX::CRUD::YUI::TT .tt files plus your local app root. This means you can override the default template behaviour by putting a .tt file with the same name in your root template dir.

For example, to customize your wrapper.tt file, just copy the default one from the CatalystX/CRUD/YUI/TT/crud/wrapper.tt in @INC and put it in root/crud/wrapper.tt. Likewise, you can set up a global config file by creating a root/crud/tt_config.tt file and putting your MACROs and other TT stuff in there.

template_vars

Overrides base method to add some other default variables.

  • The yui variable is a CatalystX::CRUD::YUI object.

  • The page variable is a hashref with members js and css. It is used by crud/page_head_maker.tt to ease the addition of per-request .js and .css files. Stuff the base file name into the array in each .tt file to get those files included in the page header.

    Example:

     [% page.css.push('foo') %]
     
     # html <head> section will contain:
     # <link type="stylesheet" href="[% static_url %]/css/foo.css" />
  • The static_url variable defaults to $c->uri_for('/static'). You can override that in $c->config() by setting a 'static_url' value to whatever base URL you wish. Ideal for serving your static content from different URL than your dynamic content.
