Re: [dancer-users] Before Hook hit multiple times.

hooks and routes are called once in the application flow. Do I really have to program around this taking into consideration the number of times the before hook is called on each page?

HTTP is stateless. The client can make as many requests as it likes and your Dancer app will see them as separate requests. The 'before' hook fires for every request. If you want to limit a hook to particular routes, you have to write that logic yourself in the hook subroutine or else wrap the route handlers instead of using a before hook. David
