To view information on a given tag, you hit the following path:
/tag/URI_ESCAPED_TAG
Which uses the following action in the Tag controller:
sub view : PathPart('tag') Chained('/') Args {
my ($self, $c, $tag) = @_;
How about:
my ($self, $c, @tag_parts) = @_;
my $tag = join('/', @tag_parts);

Re: [Catalyst] Chained, slashes, and escaping
When I access the following URI: /tag/sl%2Fashes $tag gets set to sl instead of sl/ashes.

As far as I could the development myapp_server actually deals with everything correctly. In Apache: You can now allow encoded slashes in Apache 2.0.46 with: AllowEncodedSlashes On If you're using mod_perl though, when Catalyst fetches the URI from apache it requests the parsed vesion so for your example would get back /tag/sl/ashes You can customise Catalyst::Engine::Apache to use unparsed_uri and split off the query string - which seems to work OK for my simple case, but I didn't test any further.

Hi Matt, I had considered that. I just wanted to check with the list
before I went that route.
Thanks!

[Catalyst] Chained, slashes, and escaping
I'm implementing tagging under Catalyst and want to be as unrestrictive
as possible on the tag text. As such, I allow slashes in the tag text.
To view information on a given tag, you hit the following path:
/tag/URI_ESCAPED_TAG
Which uses the following action in the Tag controller:
sub view : PathPart('tag') Chained('/') Args {
my ($self, $c, $tag) = @_;
To test and make sure the escaping is working properly I created the
following tag:
sl/ashes
When I access the following URI:
/tag/sl%2Fashes
$tag gets set to sl instead of sl/ashes.
Chained appears to be using the unescaped path when it looks for the
separator instead of the actual path.
Is this a bug or a feature? How can I work around it?

I cheated and replace '/' with '_' when outputting links when
confronted with a similar issue, then s/_/\//og in the handler. Don't
know if that will work for you?

Apparently back in the early days of the web, a URL like that caused problems
with poorly written CGI scripts that blindly opened the PATH_INFO variable.
Instead of fixing the scripts, the apache / NCSA HTTPD authors decided to
break the URL spec for the rest of forever.

11 years later, the web is still broken (for backwards compatibility, of
course).
