NAME
Dancer::Plugin::MobileDevice - make a Dancer app mobile-aware
SYNOPSIS
package MyWebApp;
use Dancer;
use Dancer::Plugin::MobileDevice;
get '/' => sub {
if (is_mobile_device) {
# do something for mobile
}
else {
# do something for regular agents
}
};
DESCRIPTION
A plugin for Dancer-powered webapps to easily detect mobile clients and offer a simplified layout, and/or act in different ways.
The plugin offers a is_mobile_device
keyword, which returns true if the device is recognised as a mobile device.
It can also automatically change the layout used to render views for mobile clients.
Custom layout for mobile devices
This plugin can use a custom layout for recognised mobile devices, allowing you to present a simplified page template for mobile devices. To enable this, use the mobile_layout
setting for this plugin - for instance, add the following to your config file:
plugins:
mobiledevice:
mobile_layout: 'mobile'
This means that, when template
is called to render a view, if the client is recognised as a mobile device, the layout named mobile
will be used, rather than whatever the current layout
setting is.
You can of course still override this layout by supplying a layout option to the template
call in the usual way (see the Dancer documentation for how to do this).
