6 Maypole::Application - Universal Maypole Frontend
7
9 use Maypole::Application;
10
11 use Maypole::Application qw(Config::YAML);
12
13 use Maypole::Application qw(-Debug Config::YAML -Setup);
14
15 use Maypole::Application qw(Config::YAML Loader -Setup -Debug);
16
17 use Maypole::Application qw(-Debug2 MasonX AutoUntaint);
18
20 This is a universal frontend for mod_perl1, mod_perl2, HTML::Mason and
21 CGI.
22
23 Automatically determines the appropriate frontend for your environment
24 (unless you want to use MasonX::Maypole, in which case include "MasonX"
25 in the arguments).
26
27 Loads plugins supplied in the "use" statement.
28
29 Responds to flags supplied in the "use" statement.
30
31 Initializes the application's configuration object.
32
33 You can omit the Maypole::Plugin:: prefix from plugins. So
34 Maypole::Plugin::Config::YAML becomes Config::YAML.
35
36 use Maypole::Application qw(Config::YAML);
37
38 You can also set special flags like -Setup, -Debug and -Init.
39
40 use Maypole::Application qw(-Debug Config::YAML -Setup);
41
42 The position of plugins in the chain is important, because they are
43 loaded/executed in the same order they appear.
44
46 Under mod_perl (1 or 2), selects Apache::MVC.
47
48 Otherwise, selects CGI::Maypole.
49
50 If "MasonX" is specified, sets MasonX::Maypole as the frontend. This
51 currently also requires a mod_perl environment.
52
54 -Setup
55 use Maypole::Application qw(-Setup);
56
57 is equivalent to
58
59 use Maypole::Application;
60 MyApp->setup;
61
62 Note that no options are passed to "setup()". You must ensure that
63 the required model config parameters are set in "MyApp->config".
64 See Maypole::Config for more information.
65
66 -Init
67 use Maypole::Application qw(-Setup -Init);
68
69 is equivalent to
70
71 use Maypole::Application;
72 MyApp->setup;
73 MyApp->init;
74
75 Note that the "-Setup" flag is required for the "-Init" flag to
76 work.
77
78 In persistent environments (e.g. "mod_perl"), it is useful to call
79 "init" once in the parent server, rather than at the beginning of
80 the first request to each child server, in order to share the view
81 code loaded during "init". Note that you must supply all the
82 config data to your app before calling "setup" and "init", probably
83 by using one of the "Maypole::Plugin::Config::*" plugins.
84
85 -Debug
86 use Maypole::Application qw(-Debug);
87
88 is equivalent to
89
90 use Maypole::Application;
91 sub debug { 1 }
92
93 You can specify a higher debug level by saying "-Debug2" etc.
