Hello - I am semi new to Perl and Catalyst. I have walked through the Catalyst tutorial a couple times and have also picked up a couple books and done much googling that always seem to get me close but leave me hanging.
Have been looking at tons of docs for catalyst::controller::rest and catalyst::view::json amongst many others and can't find joy. Anyway -- I think I would be on the right track if someone solved this basic inquiry: Working from this example: http://www.catalystframework.org/calendar/2009/22# An AJAX CRUD Interface with Catalyst and jQuery<http://www.catalystframework.org/calendar/2009/22#%20An%20AJAX%20CRUD%20Interface%20with%20Catalyst%20and%20jQuery> which I have working fine, fwiw... How would you expose the "created" column from the db (schema came from here: http://search.cpan.org/~bobtfish/Catalyst-Manual-5.9003/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tutorial/04_BasicCRUD.pod<http://search.cpan.org/%7Ebobtfish/Catalyst-Manual-5.9003/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tutorial/04_BasicCRUD.pod> and is, in this example, a sqlite TIMESTAMP col) in the JSON generated by the API controller's grid_POST method? If I simply add the column to the API controller here: <snip> $data{rows} = [ map { +{ id => $_->id, cell => [ $_->id, $_->title, $_->rating, $_->author_list, $_->created, ] } } $paged_rs->all ]; </snip> The app throws this: Content-Type application/json had a problem with your request. ***ERROR*** encountered object '2012-02-29T17:16:27', but neither allow_blessed enabled nor TO_JSON method available on it at /usr/local/share/perl/5.12.4/Catalyst/Action/Serialize/JSON.pm line 39. And I realize I'm not serializing the timestamp appropriately (and how data with colons are bound to cause issues in JSON)... but this simple thing is what I haven't been able to solve. Any guidance greatly appreciated. Thanks - Steve P.S. For penance I will create some documentation of the working example and check it in somewhere useful or host a living doc on one of my websites to help others.
