This will break for filenames with spaces in them. For strict
correctness, you want this:
( my $pdf_filename = $c-stash-{ pdf_filename } ) =~ s!!\\!g;
$c-res-header( 'Content-Disposition' = qq(attachment;
filename=$pdf_filename) );

hmm.. I'm missing something here...
Yup.
won't that simply escape double quotes and not affect spaces?
No.

Thanks for the input. I came across Catalyst::View::PDF::API2 but couldn't
get that to work for some reason. I hadn't tried ..PDF::Reuse but right now
HTML::HTMLDoc is working pretty well for me.
Just as an aside, I've been using HTMLDOC server-side for years and have
only just noticed HTML::HTMLDoc. It's a neat wrapper but I haven't found
a way of setting header footer size (equivalent of --headfootsize
option), except to directly access the objects private parts:
$htmldoc-_set_doc_config('headfootsize', 9)
which breaks all the conventions, but works. I notice the H::H package
hasn't been updated since 2005 so I guess it's safe enough to do this.
Anyone encountered this issue before?

Re: [Catalyst] Unicode in request captures
Hi t0m, I filed a bug report together with patch and test about Unicode characters in request captures more than two weeks ago: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=50339 *Taken* fine. I've got a branch on Catalyst currently to deal with some other encoding Captures / CaptureArgs issues. good to hear. I think that your patch may be a little too enthusiastic about encoding as it is currently, but also looks like a reasonable first attempt. hmm, what do you mean with too enthusiastic? I'll incorporate this into my branch http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/repos/Catalyst/Catalyst-Runtime/5.80/branches/uri_encode_captures_andor_args_take2/ Many thanks for the patch, I'll update you further on the status of the branch in RT.

But if I do then cpan look ModuleName $ perl Makefile.PL $ make $ make test $make install I can install the modules without problem (usually). However, I need to manually install each dependency. I've seen this strange thing under 2 Debian systems so I think it is not a Debian bug. Does this happen to you? If yes, how do you solve it? I note that both Mandriva (which has had it for a few years) and Fedora now have working Catalyst packages. Mandriva also has a CPANPLUS backend (which is being actively used for packaging new CPAN modules, however other tools - written in perl - are used for updating all packages). I am prepared to package other Catalyst modules for Mandriva on request.

Re: [Catalyst] Debian recommendation
Sorry for the top post but my answer is simple. I have used Debian for Catalyst development since I discovered Catalyst. I use CPAN because no distro can keep up with the fast changing Catalyst world, so it's no use to use the distro packages. Besides I develop in Debian and deploy in FreeBSD 6 and 7, so I am used to CPAN anyway. Perhaps you know this and failed to mention it but Debian has a clear Perl Policy: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/perl-policy/ My rule is that many XS-type modules are better installed with the distro's packages DBI, and the DBDs are examples of this. The rest of the Catalyst packages I install with CPAN and have yet to run into any problems. I have been using Debian since 2.0 and Catalyst since it came out.

Debian doesn't understand Perl, and they don't care about CPAN. Debian hand-hacks stuff in the most virulent and ridiculous fashion: they'll open up a perl class, hack in an extra method, make random other methods die explicitly, and then they'll make your system dependent on it. I use CPAN too, and Debian as my primary distribution but that doesn't change a thing. They could for instance, subclass a module for use by the system into a ::Debian package, but instead they choose the dirty hack-it-in method which makes life difficult for those of us who want to simply get a job done. The Debian packages don't have to pass the natural tests, they're not published under the same namespaces, they don't change version numbers, and they're hardly sound improvements. Debian will justify this because they want the system configured through /etc, and not at the whim of each individual author, but unfortunately that doesn't help us here, or people that depend on the non-debian behavoir. Use CPAN at your risk, it might work -- it might not. I do, and I feel comfortable saying most programmers on this list can probably navigate around the problems Debian creates, but for the end perl user, Debian is a horrible platform. -- Evan Carroll System Lord of the Internets ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/

Re: [Catalyst] Request
Hi Octavian - On Tue, 27 Oct 2009 23:16 +0200, Octavian Râsnita orasn...@gmail.com wrote: From: Larry Leszczynski lar...@emailplus.org Hi Octavian - Is there a Catalyst Request method for getting the path and the query_string? (Everything's after the base). I want to use it in a TT template for changing the current language. The current URI is something like: http://www.site.com/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 The base for this URI is: http://www.site.com/en/ (Because I overwritten prepare_path as in the example given on the Cat wiki) and the URL that should be printed with the new language is: http://www.site.com/ro/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 Not sure if this gets you all the way there, but you could call c.req.uri with no arguments, that should give you the current request including base, path and query string. Then you could strip off c.req.base from the beginning of that string. Thank you Larry, but the problem is that the base was overwritten and it contains some more than the uri, so I can't cut it from the URI. It should work fine, we do something very similar. The trick is that after the prepare_path fixup (if you did it like in the wiki), when you stringify c.req.uri, it will reflect the *new* base, not the original. Using your example: original request url:http://www.site.com/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 rewritten request url: http://www.site.com/en/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 So you should have: [% uri = c.req.uri; # http://www.site.com/en/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 base = c.req.base;# http://www.site.com/en/ pattern = '^' _ base;# pattern not tested... path_and_query = uri.replace(pattern, ''); %] So it's easy to strip base from the front of uri and get what you need, without knowing what base is. Thank you Evan. Your solution was helpful. I didn't know that c.req.uri is not just a string, but an object that has its own methods, and c.req.uri.path_query was the one I needed. This could work, but given the same original url and prepare_path fixup, you will have: [% uri = c.req.uri; # http://www.site.com/en/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 path_and_query = c.req.uri.path_query; # /en/prg?var1=val1var2=val2 %] So now when you build the new url you have to be aware that path_and_query contains the /en part that needs to be stripped.

Hi all,
Learning Catalyst here. Following along with the manual and I ran into
a weird issue. I assume the documentation is right so it must be
something with my installation (Catalyst packages on OpenBSD 4.6).
Following along with the SIMPLE DELETE FEATURE example, I made changes
to root/src/books/list.tt2. Alas, the uri is not rendering properly.
a href=[% c.uri_for(c.controller.action_for('delete'), [book.id])
%]Delete/a
I may have not updated my view knowledge - but I would write that as:
a href=[% c.uri_for(c.controller.action_for('delete'), book.id) %]Delete/a
Why did you use the square brackets around 'book.id'?
