I would very much appreciate feedback on my approach to using my TT view with
REST. I'm just playing with the AdventREST example trying to understand the
whole REST thing.
I created a class (lib/AdventREST/MyREST.pm) for my controllers to inherit
from. This class inherits from Catalyst::Controller::REST.
In MyREST.pm, I override the 'end' method to either use the RenderView
ActionClass or the Serialize ActionClass:
sub _renderview : ActionClass('RenderView') {}
sub _serialize : ActionClass('Serialize') {}
sub end : Private {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
if ( $self->want_renderview($c) ) {
$c->forward('_renderview');
}
else {
$c->forward('_serialize');
}
where the want_renderview() method can be written however you want to (using
the Content-Type or file extension or whatever).
Thanks.
Greg
