Hi all,
I've been searching for the best answer, but there's a huge amount to wade
through.
I'm working on a Catalyst app where all views are purely HTML. I use
Catalyst::View::TT. The vast majority of my data in views should be HTML
escaped:
[% message | html %]
However, I'd like that to be the default rather than the exception because it's
easy to forget this. I wanted to just do this in the view class:
STASH => Template::Stash::EscapeHTML
But that globally escapes everything, thus destroying my forms. I considered
writing my own stash but had trouble getting enough information to always be
sure of doing the right thing. It might be nice if Catalyst::View::TT accepted
a Template subclass, something like this:
package Veure::View::HTML;
use Modern::Perl;
use parent 'Catalyst::View::TT';
__PACKAGE__->config(
TEMPLATE_CLASS => 'Template::HTML',
TEMPLATE_EXTENSION => '.tt',
WRAPPER => 'site/wrapper',
);
That would cause everything to be HTML escaped, unless I use the new "none"
filter:
[% form.render | none %]
However, that doesn't work because the template class is hard-coded into
Catalyst::View::TT.
I'm not sure if this is the best way to go about this, though. Should I just
continue work on a custom stash? How have others dealt with this?
Cheers,
Ovid
