[Catalyst] Environment Variables
Hello all. First time posting here. :-)
I'm trying to get at $ENV{HTTP_REFERER} from my catalyst app but it
doesn't seem to be there. In fact the only keys that exist in %ENV are
CATALYST_ENGINE and PERL5LIB. Are the others being wiped out somehow?
Not sure if this is normal Catalyst behavior. Thanks!

That info is in $c-request-referer _when_ it's present. Generally
you want to avoid the ENV stuff, though I believe there is a plugin to
get at it if you really need some part of it not already exposed.

They're not being wiped out, they just don't exist to begin with. All those
envvars are part of CGI, and Catalyst is not CGI. Everything you need to know
about the incoming request should be in $c-request (alias $c-req).
