Hi all!

 

I'm displaying a view on a web page. The view contains a timestamp and a
date field. The database is MySQL 5.0.x. 

 

As raw values from timestamp fields are no eye candy, I decided to use
DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::DateTime, using its default formatter to format
the timestamp. Unfortunately, it formats the date column, too. But as the
date column has no time information, I get something like
"YYYY-MM-DDT00:00:00". I don't want the time information.

 

Usually, I would format the date and timestamp within the sql statement, but
I wanted to try to format it in the ResultClass. So, how do I do that?

 

There is a handicap tough. Sure, I could iterate over each item of the
resultset and call some formatting routine for the date field. But I'm too
lazy to do that, because it looks a lot simpler to simply give the resultset
to the template (bzw, using HTML::Template::Compiled) and let the template
handle the output.

 

Here are some sniplets:

# code:

my $rs = $schema->resultset('View')->search(.);

$template->param(view_loop => $rs);

 

# template:

<TMPL_LOOP view_loop>

<TMPL_VAR column>

</TMPL_LOOP>

 

So, any suggestions?
