NAME

XUL::Node::Application - base class for XUL-Node applications

SYNOPSYS

  # subclassing to create your own application
  package XUL::Node::Application::MyApp;
  use base 'XUL::Node::Application';
  sub start { Window(Label(value => 'Welcome to MyApp')) }

  # running the application from some handler in a server
  use XUL::Node::Application;
  XUL::Node::Application->get_constructor('MyApp')->();

  # Firefox URL
  http://SERVER:PORT/start.xul?MyApp

DESCRIPTION

To create a XUL-Node application, subclass from this class and provide one template method: start(). It will be called when the application is started.

You can get a callback for running the application by calling the class method get_constructor(), which returns a CODE ref that can be run to start the application. This is how the session starts applications.
