You said argument in your original post:
sub foo : Local {
my ( $self, $c, $myarg ) = @_;
$c-stash-{myarg} = $self-munge( $myarg );
# or use chaining
}
I just can't figure
out how to access the variables of a controller method in the template.
Munged argument is [% myarg | html %]
I'd
be more than happy to pass the argument to a controller, and then have the
view fetch it from the controller, and then the template read it from the
view,
If I had any idea how to dereference the variables in order to set them in
new components. I was just trying to keep it walk before running and I keep
tripping over my feet.
It's that wording that is tripping me up. ;)

You want [% c.req.body_params.myarg %] if it's a post, [%
c.req.params.myarg %] if you don't care. I would munge the parameters
in the controller and try to formalize an API to interact with the
view though. Also, avoid making your view-side code be
controller-dependent, you'll surely regret it later.

You want to put the data into the 'stash'.
So in your controller you have:
my ( $self, $c, $arg ) = @_;
$arg =~ s/stuff/munge/;
$c-stash-{somearg} = $arg;
And in your view, you say: [% c.stash.somearg %]
You don't really want the view to be able to see the controller's
internal state / mechanics, and so you have to explicitly stash any
data which you want to be able to see from the view.

Re: [Catalyst] Using a post argument in a template
I did. I want to use it as a variable even though it's passed in as an arg.
I didn't mean to be unclear, sorry. Once it's stashed, can I use it like
[% myarg %] in a template? or [% c.stash.myarg %]?

Re: [Catalyst] Using a post argument in a template
Cool. I was unaware how the stash worked. I can see the benefit of encapsulating
each component. Thanks!

Re: [Catalyst] Using a post argument in a template
I can stash and array and when I use [% c.stash.mylist %] in the template, it prints 'ARRAY(0x94023b0)' but if I try: [% FOREACH element IN c.stash.mylist %] [% element %] [% END %] the output is null.

nevermind. this works. I am an idiot. It helps if the array isn't empty... On Fri, 25 Jul 2008, James S.
