how to fetch an existing cookie
by Wanjuan Yang 17 Jul '17

17 Jul '17

Hi, We are using dancer2, how can I fetch an existing cookie from the client requests? In dancer1, there is module Dancer::Cookies, we can retrieve all the cookies by doing: my $cookies = Dancer::Cookies->cookies; See the following: use Dancer::Cookies; my $cookies = Dancer::Cookies->cookies; foreach my $name ( keys %{$cookies} ) { my $cookie = $cookies->{$name}; my $value = $cookie->value; print "$name => $value\n"; } Does Dancer2 has equivalent module or are there any ways to fetch a cookie? Your help would be much appreciated!

dancer cookie
by Wanjuan Yang 14 Jul '17

14 Jul '17

Hi, Our application has two layers, the first layer does the authentication and set the user cookie in client browser. In second layer, we need to get the information from user cookie and do the authorisation. My question is how can I get the information from the user cookie which is set in first layer? Also how can I delete the cookie after user logout?

Dancer2 Authentication Problem
by CHONG Yu Meng 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

Hi all, Still learning Dancer2. Managed to get the database part working, but now I have a strange authentication problem - probably something I am missing. I want to password protect several routes: /secret /secretpg1 /secretpg2 In config.yml, I have configured just one user, who should be able to access all the above routes: engines: session: YAML: cookie_name: invictus.session is_secure: 1 is_http_only: 1 plugins: Auth::Extensible: realms: config: provider: Config users: - user: 'joeblow' pass: 'sikrit123' name: 'Joe Blow' roles: - Marketing In my Dancer2 code, I have this: get '/secret' => require_login sub { 'You are logged in as user: ' . logged_in_user->{name} }; get '/secretpg1' => require_login sub { 'This is page 1.'; }; get '/secretpg2' => require_login sub { 'This is page 2.'; }; If I go to /secret, I will get the default login page. If I then go to /secretpg1, I thought I would get the page without having to login again, but I get redirected to the default login page again. If I login successfully then go to /secretpg2, I get asked to login again. What am I doing wrong here? Is there some additional configuration? I suspect there is something wrong with my config.yml, but I cannot find any information on Google that helps. All the examples I see have only one route. Help! Thanks in Advance! pascal chong

The case of the missing body-parameter...

I am debugging a dancer2 ajax application which receives a POST request as follows wget --post-data '{"item":{"filename":"/prj/dyumnin/ designw.in/web/WS/log/Build_1/13RTL Compile Check.log"}}' --header=Content-Type:application/json http://localhost:5000/api/prjEdit/getFile.json *My route definition is * package api; use Data::Dumper; use Dancer2 appname=>'web'; use Dancer2::Plugin::Database; use spreadsheet; use Data::GUID::Any 'guid_as_string'; use Dancer2::Plugin::REST; use File::ReadBackwards; prepare_serializer_for_format; prefix '/api/prjEdit'; post '/getFileTail.:format'=>sub{ my $data=body_parameters->get_all('item'); debug Dumper $data; debug Dumper body_parameters; my %all_parameters = params; debug Dumper \%all_parameters; *What I see in the log is* [web:17548] core @2017-07-05 22:53:10> looking for post /api/prjEdit/getFileTail.json in /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1/Dancer2/Core/App.pm l. 35 [web:17548] core @2017-07-05 22:53:10> Entering hook core.app.before_request in (eval 258) l. 1 [web:17548] debug @2017-07-05 22:53:10> *$VAR1 = undef;* in /prj/dyumnin/ designw.in/web/bin/../lib/api.pm l. 211 [web:17548] debug @2017-07-05 22:53:10>* $VAR1 = bless( {}, 'Hash::MultiValue' ); i*n /prj/dyumnin/designw.in/web/bin/../lib/api.pm l. 212 [web:17548] debug @2017-07-05 22:53:10>* $VAR1 = {* * 'format' => 'json'* * }; *in /prj/dyumnin/designw.in/web/bin/../lib/api.pm l. 214 Similar requests for other routes work.I am unable to understand why the body parameter is getting lost for this route. and Have not Idea where to begin my search. To make matters worst when coupled with the Angular2 front end. for the same request sometimes the body parameters are passed to this route and sometimes they are not. Any Hints on how to debug this scenario is welcome. Regards Vijay -- https://www.facebook.com/vijayvithal.jahagirdar https://twitter.com/jahagirdar_vs http://democracies-janitor.blogspot.in/

Database template not working (and also my Dancer2 code)
by CHONG Yu Meng 04 Jul '17

04 Jul '17

Hi all, Learning Dancer2 and trying to re-learn Perl, so please be patient. I've read the Manual and Tutorial, and I can get most examples working, except for querying a database and displaying the results. I am using Dancer2::Plugin::Database. I have a simple database table (jpstars): +----+-----------------+---------------------+ | id | firstname | lastname | +----+-----------------+---------------------+ | 1 | Harumi | Nemoto | | 2 | Eiko | Koike | | 3 | Ami | Ayukawa | +----+-----------------+---------------------+ I have the following Dancer2 code (dancerapp.pm): package dancerapp; use Dancer2; use Dancer2::Plugin::Database; our $VERSION = '0.1'; get '/dbtest' => sub { my $sth = database->prepare( 'SELECT id, firstname, lastname FROM jpstars;' ); $sth -> execute; template 'display_jpstars', { subscribers => $sth -> fetchrow_hashref('id') }; }; I have this template file (display_jpstars.tt) <html><head><title>JPStars</title></head> <body> <h1>JpStars</h1> <table> <tr> <th>First Name</th> <th>Last Name</th> </tr> <% FOREACH id IN subscribers.keys.nsort %> <tr> <td><% subscribers.$id.displayname %></td> <td><% subscribers.$id.emailaddr %></td> </tr> <% END %> </table> </body> </html> dance; I get an error: "Can't use attribute 'id' because it doesn't contain a reference to an array" I'm pretty sure my template code is wrong (my dancer.pm code too), but I have no idea how it should look. Help! Thanks in advance! Pascal CHONG
