Catalyst::Action::RenderView - Sensible default end action. sub end : ActionClass('RenderView') {} This action implements a sensible default end action, which will forward to the first available view, unless status is set to 3xx, or there is a response body. It also allows you to pass "dump_info=1" to the url in order to force a debug screen, while in debug mode. If you have more than one view, you can specify which one to use with the "default_view" config setting (see Catalyst's "$c->view($name)" method).

end
The default "end" action. You can override this as required in your application class; normal inheritance applies.

execute
Dispatches control to superclasses, then forwards to the default View. See "METHODS/action" in Catalyst::Action. When you force debug with dump_info=1, RenderView is capable of removing classes from the objects in your stash. By default it will replace any DBIx::Class resultsource objects with the class name, which cleans up the debug output considerably, but you can change what gets scrubbed by setting a list of classes in $c->config->{debug}->{ignore_classes}. For instance: $c->config->{debug}->{ignore_classes}=[]; To disable the functionality. You can also set config->{debug}->{scrubber_func} to change what it does with the classes. For instance, this will undef it instead of putting in the class name: $c->config->{debug}->{scrubber_func}=sub { undef $_ }; To add something to an "end" action that is called before rendering, simply place it in the "end" method: sub end : ActionClass('RenderView') { my ( $self, $c ) = @_; # do stuff here; the RenderView action is called afterwards } To add things to an "end" action that are called after rendering, you can set it up like this: sub render : ActionClass('RenderView') { } sub end : Private { my ( $self, $c ) = @_; $c->forward('render'); # do stuff here } Marcus Ramberg <marcus@thefeed.no> This library is free software.
