6 Dancer::Engine - base class for Dancer engines

12 my $engine = Dancer::Engine->build( Serializer => 'JSON', $configuration );
13
15 Dancer has various engines such Serializer engines, Template engines,
16 Logger engines and Session handlers engines. This is the base class for
17 all Dancer engines.
18
19 If you're writing an engine of a common type (such as those mentioned
20 above), you probably want to simply use their base class, which in turn
21 use Dancer::Engine. For example, Template engines inherit from
22 Dancer::Template::Abstract and Serializer engines inherit from
23 Dancer::Serializer::Abstract. Those Abstract base classes inherit from
24 Dancer::Engine.
25
26 If a new type of Dancer engine is created, it is best it inherits from
27 this class.
28
