Re: [Catalyst] [Beginner] model with MySQL, is many_to_many required?
From: "Ekki Plicht (DF4OR)" Hi. Just getting around to implement the first user auth stuff, and as usual I am going along with MySQL. I know, I know, please no DB flame wars :-) As most of the docs are based on SqLite and Cat/MySQL docs are a little bit sketchy, I am unsure if my Schema requires the manual addition of the many_to_many relationship, or if this is just a requirement for SqLite. Yes you need to manually add the many_to_many relationship.

$c->uri_for('/static/wherever') is the correct solution. Giving it an absolute
path will most likely break if you end up deploying your application somewhere
other than the server root.

[Catalyst] [Beginner] model with MySQL, is many_to_many required?
Hi. Just getting around to implement the first user auth stuff, and as usual I am going along with MySQL. I know, I know, please no DB flame wars :-) As most of the docs are based on SqLite and Cat/MySQL docs are a little bit sketchy, I am unsure if my Schema requires the manual addition of the many_to_many relationship, or if this is just a requirement for SqLite. That shows probably that I still haven't grasped Models and Schemas fully, but so be it. My Schema has the three usual auth tables: users, roles, user_roles. The latter one stores the relation with foreign keys, I am using InnoDB tables which support those. User.pm has the 'has_many' sub, Role.pm has the 'has_many' sub, UsersRole.pm has two subs 'belongs_to', all automagically from the Schema::Loader. Anything else required?

[Catalyst] User management with Catalyst (with email and URLs)
Dear list members, I guess what I am trying to do is a pretty common task for web developers. So I am very astonished that a couple of hours spent searching the Internet didn't provide me with a good starting point for my efforts. Here's what I would like to achieve: A user comes to a web page and enters his email address to join the fun. He gets an email with a confirmation URL that leads him back to the site where he entered his email address to begin with, he then gets a welcome message and is presented a request to enter a password. With his email address and the entered password he can from then on login to the protected area at any time. And of course users do forget their passwords, so an automatic password retrieval feature would come in handy, too. Anybody got any good pointers where to start looking for something I can customize to my needs? I can't imagine I am the first or only one wanting to achieve something like the above using Catalyst. Right? Any hints appreciated.
