How to keep Dancer2::Session::Cookie after browser session ends?
by Pavel Denisov 23 Jun '14

23 Jun '14

Hi! I use Dancer2::Session::Cookie and am trying to implement "Remember me" option for user login. I understand that I need to set 'expires' to some future date for session cookie, but how do I do it in Dancer? 'cookie_duration' configuration parameter makes this, but it is read-only and I can not change it depending on user input.

Problem using jquery UI in Dancer
by Sullivan Beck 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

I've using Dancer 1.3115 on OpenSuSE 13.1. I've downloaded jquery 1.11.1 and the datepick plugin from http://keith-wood.name/datepick.html. I took the simplest test script from the datepick home page (and stripped it down to a single popup calendar -- that's the functionality I want) and put it in a very simple Dancer script. Unfortunately, although the HTML produced is correct, the Dancer script isn't working. When I run the dancer script and point my browser at it, I see a text box asking for a date. If I click in the box, no calendar pops up to select the date. If I view the page source and copy the html into a dancer2.html file and open that file up in my browser and it works great. I see the same page, and clicking in the box pops up the calendar. I'm a fairly recent user of Dancer, but I'm really liking it and want to use it for a project but I really need the datepicker to work. Any suggestions? I'm attaching the dancer2.pl script and the HTML it generates. My setup is that I have dancer2.pl and dancer2.html in a directory and a subdirectory jquery containing both jquery and the datepicker plugin (both completely unmodified).

Dancer2::Plugin::REST breaks tests
by Cymon 06 Jun '14

06 Jun '14

Hi, i know there's already an issue open on CPAN RT about this problem, but are there news about a new release of the package? I spent some time looking into the problem, first fail should depends by the before hook in Dancer2::Core::Response. Comments here say that "All serializers return byte strings". I'm a bit curious about this... why was implemented this way considering that Serializer are something like YAML and JSON? Second problem is just about new Dancer2 server (I solved something similar here: http://perlishscrewdriver.blogspot.it/2014/05/all-releases-come-with-bug.ht…) -- Cymon Coniglio domina, http://www.therabbit.it

Strehler CMS on the dancing floor
by Cymon 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

Well, I think it's time to do something like an "official" annuncement about Strehler, my little CMS based on Dancer2. You can find it here: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Strehler/ While the raw code is here: https://github.com/cym0n/strehler I released it on CPAN many weeks ago, the 1.1.0 version, but I think i can consider it "mature" only now, with 1.1.10. (where mature means: all the bugs are hiding very well from me). I'd love someone to try it and give me feedbacks about, I know there's still a lot of work to do (and i'm already working on new features) but a second sight on the product will be very useful to improve it! Enjoy! -- Cymon http://perlishscrewdriver.blogspot.com

Dancer::Plugin::Database - unable to open database
by Gert van Oss 30 May '14

30 May '14

hello Dancers, I’m trying to use Dancer::Plugin::Database. The database is a sqlite-file that only serves as datafile so I’m not writing to the database in my app. If I run my app on the server with the command ‘perl bin/app.pl’ everything works just fine. All data is shown on the pages as expected. If, however I startup the app while making use of Starman (I took guidance of the article on the perlmaven site) I get the message that the app is unable to open the database. Up until now I worked around the problem to store all my data in json-files and create multiple ‘selection/sorts’ by using hashes and arrays but that is becoming a bit difficult to maintain. The error log gives two lines DBI connect('dbname=all.sqlite','',...) failed: unable to open database file at /home/gertmt/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.20.0/lib/site_perl/5.20.0/Dancer/Plugin/Database/Core.pm line 259. Database connection failed - unable to open database file in /home/gertmt/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.20.0/lib/site_perl/5.20.0/Dancer/Plugin/Database.pm l. 28 these might explain the problem however I have no idea where to start. Is there someone who had to deal with this issue? Thanks, Gert

Behind proxy sometimes
by Matthew Mallard 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi, Long story, but I’m using a config where I’m connecting to the Plackup instance through an SSH tunnel. The users I’m developing for will connect through an Apache reverse proxy to the same environment. Anyhow, the behind_proxy setting was causing my SSH tunnel session to barf on splitting an uninitialised variable. This fixes it - should be harmless to put in for everyone, but a bit safer for the fringe cases: --- /perf/perl/lib/perl5/Dancer2/Core/Request.pm 2014-05-12 14:23:07.000000000 +1000 +++ /perf/perl/lib/perl5/Dancer2/Core/Request.pm.bak 2014-05-12 14:26:28.049744396 +1000 @@ -222,7 +222,7 @@ sub host { my ($self) = @_; - if ( $self->is_behind_proxy && $self->env->{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST} ) { + if ( $self->is_behind_proxy ) { my @hosts = split /\s*,\s*/, $self->env->{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST}, 2; return $hosts[0]; } else { Regards, Matt
