Catalyst::Helper - Bootstrap a Catalyst application
See Catalyst::Manual::Intro
Bootstrap a Catalyst application. Autogenerates scripts
Slurp file from DATA.
Create the main application skeleton.
This method is called by create.pl to make new components for your application.
Surprisingly, this function makes a directory.
writes content to a file.
Render and create a file from a template in DATA using Template Toolkit.
Helpers are classes that provide two methods.
* mk_compclass - creates the Component class * mk_comptest - creates the Component test
So when you call bin/create view MyView TT, create would try to execute Catalyst::Helper::View::TT->mk_compclass and Catalyst::Helper::View::TT->mk_comptest.
bin/create view MyView TT
See Catalyst::Helper::View::TT and Catalyst::Helper::Model::DBIC for examples.
All helper classes should be under one of the following namespaces.
Catalyst::Helper::Model:: Catalyst::Helper::View:: Catalyst::Helper::Controller::
The helpers will read author name from /etc/passwd by default. To override, please export the AUTHOR variable.
