Hi all,
Still trying to learn all the in's and out's of C::A. I'm curious about
handling situations where I have common operations that must be applied to
all modes upon exiting. Example:
I load a unique .tmpl files and assign values to parameters in run modes.
But before outputing, I want to assign some values common to all of .tmpls.
cgiapp_postrun doesn't always work because it runs after each mode, and I
only want it to run after all modes are finished (forwarding). I tried it
teardown, but I lose the $common values somewhere before I get there.
I wish there was something like "cgiapp_lastrun" that would come only after
the last mode for the instance was run, and before teardown.
Anyway, here's my scenario:
my ($template);
sub cgiapp_init {
#set paths
}
sub setup {
my $self = shift;
$self->mode_param('rm');
$self->run_modes(
'mode1' => 'mode_1',
'mode2' => 'mode_2',
'mode3 => 'mode_3',
)
}
sub teardown {
$template->param(graphic => $common->{'header_graphic'});
}
sub cgiapp_prerun {
#get $common values from database
}
sub mode_1 {
#do stuff
$template = $self->load_tmpl('users.tmpl');
$template->param(users => $users);
return $template->output;
}
sub mode_2 {
#do stuff
$template = $self->load_tmpl('products.tmpl');
$template->param(products => $products);
return $template->output;
}
sub mode_3 {
#do stuff
$self->forward('mode1');
}
