package MyApp::Controller::Foo;
use parent qw/Catalyst::Controller::WrapCGI/;
+ use CGI ();
sub hello : Path('cgi-bin/hello.cgi') {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$self->cgi_to_response($c, sub {
- use CGI ':standard';
-
- print header, start_html('Hello'),
- h1('Catalyst Rocks!'),
- end_html;
+ my $q = CGI->new;
+ print $q->header, $q->start_html('Hello'),
+ $q->h1('Catalyst Rocks!'),
+ $q->end_html;
});
}
+In your .conf, configure which environment variables to pass:
+
+ <Controller::Foo>
+ <CGI>
+ username_field username # used for REMOTE_USER env var
+ pass_env PERL5LIB
+ pass_env PATH
+ pass_env /^MYAPP_/
+ kill_env MOD_PERL
+ </CGI>
+ </Controller::Foo>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Allows you to run Perl code in a CGI environment derived from your L<Catalyst>
+context.
+
+B<*WARNING*>: do not export L<CGI> functions into a Controller, it will break
+with L<Catalyst> 5.8 onward.
+
+If you just want to run CGIs from files, see L<Catalyst::Controller::CGIBin>.
+
+=head1 CONFIGURATION
+
+C<< $your_controller->{CGI}{pass_env} >> should be an array of environment variables
+or regular expressions to pass through to your CGIs. Entries surrounded by C</>
+characters are considered regular expressions.
+
+C<< $your_controller->{CGI}{kill_env} >> should be an array of environment
+variables or regular expressions to remove from the environment before passing
+it to your CGIs. Entries surrounded by C</> characters are considered regular
+expressions.
+
+Default is to pass the whole of C<%ENV>, except for C<MOD_PERL> (that is, the
+default C<kill_env> is C<[ 'MOD_PERL' ]>.
+
+C<< $your_controller->{CGI}{username_field} >> should be the field for your user's name, which will be
+read from C<< $c->user->obj >>. Defaults to 'username'.
+
+See L</SYNOPSIS> for an example.

# Hack-around because Catalyst::Engine::HTTP goes and changes
Does the magic of running $coderef in a CGI environment, and populating the
appropriate parts of your Catalyst context with the results.
+Calls wrap_cgi (below.)

sub cgi_to_response {
The CGI environment is set up based on $c.
-Used by cgi_to_response, which is probably what you want to use as well.
+The environment variables to pass on are taken from the configuration for your
+Controller, see L</SYNOPSIS> for an example. If you don't supply a list of
+environment variables to pass, the whole of %ENV is used.
