=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Helper::View::TTSite - Helper for TT view which builds a skeleton web site

=head1 SYNOPSIS

# use the helper to create the view module and templates

    $ script/myapp_create.pl view HTML TTSite

# add something like the following to your main application module

    sub message : Global {
        my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
        $c->stash->{template} = 'message.tt2';
        $c->stash->{message}  ||= $c->req->param('message') || 'No message';
    }

    sub default : Private {
        my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
        $c->stash->{template} = 'welcome.tt2';
    }

    sub end : Private { # Or use Catalyst::Action::RenderView
        my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
        $c->forward( $c->view('HTML') );
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This helper module creates a TT View module.  It goes further than
Catalyst::Helper::View::TT in that it additionally creates a simple
set of templates to get you started with your web site presentation.

It creates the templates in F<root/> directory underneath your
main project directory.  In here two further subdirectories are
created: F<root/src> which contains the main page templates, and F<root/lib>
containing a library of other template components (header, footer,
etc.) that the page templates use.

The view module that the helper creates is automatically configured
to locate these templates.

=head2 Default Rendering

To render a template the following process is applied:

The configuration template F<root/lib/config/main> is rendered. This is
controlled by the C<PRE_PROCESS> configuration variable set in the controller
generated by Catalyst::Helper::View::TTsite. Additionally, templates referenced by
the C<PROCESS> directive will then be rendered. By default the following additional
templates are set: F<root/lib/config/col>,
which defines color names and RGB their RGB values and F</root/lib/config/url>,
which defines site wide variables available to templates.

Next, the template defined by the C<WRAPPER> config variable is called. The default
wrapper template is located in F<root/lib/site/wrapper>. The wrapper template
passes files with C<.css/.js/.txt> extensions through as text OR processes
the templates defined after the C<WRAPPER> directive: C<site/html> and C<site/layout>.

Based on the default value of the C<WRAPPER> directive in F<root/lib/site/wrapper>,
the following templates are processed in order:

=over 4

=item * F<root/src/your_template.tt2>

=item * F<root/lib/site/footer>

=item * F<root/lib/site/header>

=item * F<root/lib/site/layout>

=item * F<root/lib/site/html>

=back

Finally, the rendered content is returned to the browser.
