[dancer-users] route handler for a URL that matches a token

[Andrew Solomon]

Hi Richard

Firstly with the GET request when you click on this

 http://myapp.com/reset/JiOk49ld9oekdisJkflSS3ed
<http://myapp.com/resetJiOk49ld9oekdisJkflSS3ed>

your route handler will be something like this (note ':' instead of '$'):

get '/reset/:token' => sub {

  return template 'pass_reset' => {
    token => params->{token}
  };

};

This template views/pass_reset.tt will contain something like

<form action="/reset/[% token %]" method="post">
  <input type="password" name="password1"><br/>
  <input type="password" name="password2"><br/>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>


and back in the controller on clicking submit, it will be handled by

post '/reset/:token' => sub {

   # do something to check params->{password1} eq params->{password2} ...

};


(Please imagine the code above is scribbled on a blackboard - I haven't run
it:)
