I'm trying to use Chained('.') to create a controller base class that
binds to the namespace of whatever controller class inherits it, but despite
the documentation specifically mentioning this use, I can't seem to get it
to work.
Where does the documentation say that? In Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained
it says
Another interesting possibility gives :Chained('.'), which chains
itself to an action with the path of the current controller's
namespace.
Apparently I misunderstood the relationship between Chained and PathPart,
and therefore misunderstood what the documentation was saying here. So now
the way I understand it is that Chained('.') means to setup a chain segment
that has as it's parent the chain segment that matches the current
controller's namespace. Apparently what I'm actually looking for is the
equivalent of Chained('/') PathPart('.'), meaning I want to build chains
that originate in the current namespace.
What I'm actually trying to accomplish is something like this:
package MyApp::CRUDController;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base 'Catalyst::Controller';
# sub base : Chained(???) PathPart(???) CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub id : Chained('base') PathPart('id') CaptureArgs(0) { }
sub list : Chained('base') PathPart('') Args(0) { }
sub view : Chained('id') PathPart('view') Args(0) { }
sub edit : Chained('id') PathPart('edit') Args(0) { }
sub delete : Chained('id') PathPart('delete') Args(0) { }
1;
package MyApp::Controller::Foo;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base 'MyApp::CRUDController';
# So here I would like to get these chained actions:
# /foo/list
# /foo/id/*/view
# /foo/id/*/edit
# /foo/id/*/delete
1;
But the only way I can find to do this with Chained is by putting
something like this in each controller subclass:
sub base : Chained('/') PathPart('foo') CaptureArgs(0) { }
And I would rather not do that if I can avoid it, I'd rather have it
automatic, based on the namespace of the class that is inheriting the
superclass.
