dancer

All code examples I have seen related to Dancer2 and database connections put all Dancer2 code directly in the anonymous subroutines attached to the various 'get' and 'put' requests. I would like to organize my code in a way that myServices.pm file is essentially just a router to the other code files that contain the meat of what is executing. I can successfully use the params keyword in the MyServices::Submission module. However, I can't seem to use the database keyword from Dancer2::Plugin::Database in this context. myServices.pm: package myServices; use Dancer2; use Dancer2::Plugin::REST;

As a newbie to Perl I'm struggling to find a simple way to do this. I've created a very simple table in my database: CREATE TABLE users ( id SERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, username TEXT NOT NULL, password TEXT NOT NULL); So far I used a simple login system that has a hard coded username and password that I found online: package Example; use Dancer ':syntax'; our $VERSION = '0.1'; set session => "Simple"; get '/' => sub { # template 'index',{},{layout => 0}; template 'index'; }; before sub { if (! session('user') && request->path_info !~ m{^/login}) { var requested_path => request->path_info;

I am building some ajax in a Perl web framework Dancer I am not sure it is responding with proper http headers as I cannot trigger jQuery's ajax success handlers from what appear to be otherwise successful requests. Using the ajax snippet below I get the following output in a browser console. The complete callback gets called successfully and gives what looks like successful output. Status:200 StatusText:"OK" However the success handlers never get called. $.ajax({type: "GET", url: "/learn/faq", success: function(data){console.log('omg got it');}, complete: function(data){console.log("complete"

What do you think about both? I began reading a book about Catalyst, and found it pretty complex as compared to Dancer. so now I'm giving Dancer a try, and it looks easier to learn and more "human friendly". This is a somewhat subjective question, but I'll try to give you an answer in an objective way. First things first, a disclaimer : I'm part of the Dancer development team, so my opinion should of course be considered somewhat biased :) Catalyst is more widely used than Dancer, and so there's more community support behind it - if you were to look for contractors with experience working with
