521 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
522 | |
523 | This module is used by B<catalyst.pl> to create a set of scripts for a |
524 | new catalyst application. The scripts each contain documentation and |
525 | will output help on how to use them if called incorrectly or in some |
526 | cases, with no arguments. |
527 | |
528 | It also provides some useful methods for a Helper module to call when |
529 | creating a component. See L</METHODS>. |
530 | |
531 | =head1 SCRIPTS |
532 | |
533 | =head2 _create.pl |
534 | |
535 | Used to create new components for a catalyst application at the |
536 | development stage. |
537 | |
538 | =head2 _server.pl |
539 | |
540 | The catalyst test server, starts an HTTPD which outputs debugging to |
541 | the terminal. |
542 | |
543 | =head2 _test.pl |
544 | |
545 | A script for running tests from the command-line. |
546 | |
547 | =head2 _cgi.pl |
548 | |
549 | Run your application as a CGI. |
550 | |
551 | =head2 _fastcgi.pl |
552 | |
553 | Run the application as a fastcgi app. Either by hand, or call this |
554 | from FastCgiServer in your http server config. |
555 | |

556 | =head1 HELPERS |
557 | |
fab70e0a |
558 | The L</_create.pl> script creates application components using Helper |
559 | modules. The Catalyst team provides a good number of Helper modules |
560 | for you to use. You can also add your own. |
561 | |
68ccb5e5 |
562 | Helpers are classes that provide two methods. |
563 | |
564 | * mk_compclass - creates the Component class |
565 | * mk_comptest - creates the Component test |
566 | |
fab70e0a |
567 | So when you call C<scripts/myapp_create.pl view MyView TT>, create |
568 | will try to execute Catalyst::Helper::View::TT->mk_compclass and |
68ccb5e5 |
569 | Catalyst::Helper::View::TT->mk_comptest. |
570 | |
c4c50c2d |
571 | See L<Catalyst::Helper::View::TT> and |
572 | L<Catalyst::Helper::Model::DBIC::Schema> for examples. |
68ccb5e5 |
573 | |
574 | All helper classes should be under one of the following namespaces. |
575 | |
576 | Catalyst::Helper::Model:: |
577 | Catalyst::Helper::View:: |
578 | Catalyst::Helper::Controller:: |

606 | =head1 METHODS |
607 | |
fab70e0a |
608 | =head2 mk_compclass |
609 | |
610 | This method in your Helper module is called with C<$helper> |
611 | which is a L<Catalyst::Helper> object, and whichever other arguments |
612 | the user added to the command-line. You can use the $helper to call methods |
613 | described below. |
614 | |
615 | If the Helper module does not contain a C<mk_compclass> method, it |
616 | will fall back to calling L</render_file>, with an argument of |
617 | C<compclass>. |
618 | |
619 | =head2 mk_comptest |
620 | |
621 | This method in your Helper module is called with C<$helper> |
622 | which is a L<Catalyst::Helper> object, and whichever other arguments |
623 | the user added to the command-line. You can use the $helper to call methods |
624 | described below. |
625 | |
626 | If the Helper module does not contain a C<mk_compclass> method, it |
627 | will fall back to calling L</render_file>, with an argument of |
628 | C<comptest>. |
629 | |
630 | =head2 mk_stuff |
631 | |
632 | This method is called if the user does not supply any of the usual |
633 | component types C<view>, C<controller>, C<model>. It is passed the |
634 | C<$helper> object (an instance of L<Catalyst::Helper>), and any other |
635 | arguments the user typed. |
636 | |
637 | There is no fallback for this method. |
638 | |
bc8d7994 |
639 | =head1 INTERNAL METHODS |
fab70e0a |
640 | |
641 | These are the methods that the Helper classes can call on the |
642 | <$helper> object passed to them. |
643 | |
28eb1300 |
644 | =head2 render_file ($file, $path, $vars) |
fab70e0a |
645 | |
28eb1300 |
646 | Render and create a file from a template in DATA using Template |
647 | Toolkit. $file is the relevent chunk of the __DATA__ section, $path is |
648 | the path to the file and $vars is the hashref as expected by |
649 | L<Template Toolkit|Template>. |
fab70e0a |
650 | |
28eb1300 |
651 | =head2 get_file ($class, $file) |
fab70e0a |
652 | |
653 | Fetch file contents from the DATA section. This is used internally by |
28eb1300 |
654 | L</render_file>. $class is the name of the class to get the DATA |
655 | section from. __PACKAGE__ or ( caller(0) )[0] might be sensible |
656 | values for this. |
fab70e0a |
657 | |
658 | =head2 mk_app |
659 | |
660 | Create the main application skeleton. This is called by L<catalyst.pl>. |
661 | |
28eb1300 |
662 | =head2 mk_component ($app) |
fab70e0a |
663 | |
664 | This method is called by L<create.pl> to make new components |
665 | for your application. |
666 | |
28eb1300 |
667 | =head3 mk_dir ($path) |
fab70e0a |
668 | |
669 | Surprisingly, this function makes a directory. |
670 | |
28eb1300 |
671 | =head2 mk_file ($file, $content) |
fab70e0a |
672 | |
673 | Writes content to a file. Called by L</render_file>. |
674 | |
28eb1300 |
675 | =head2 next_test ($test_name) |
fab70e0a |
676 | |
677 | Calculates the name of the next numbered test file and returns it. |
28eb1300 |
678 | Don't give the number or the .t suffix for the test name. |
fab70e0a |
679 | |

680 | =head1 NOTE |
681 | |
682 | The helpers will read author name from /etc/passwd by default. |
683 | To override, please export the AUTHOR variable. |
