I’ve just finished a touch-up pass on my series of articles on getting beyond the initial small-scale app design generated by “dancer -a app”. They were to be part of the 2015 advent calendar, but for now, here are the current links: Part 1, modules: https://goo.gl/SFn30N Part 2, routes: https://goo.gl/UfMqGo Part 3, views: https://goo.gl/DN8xYO Part 4, front end: https://goo.gl/wlyOFB Part 5, REST API: https://goo.gl/VbMI4P Part 6, reloader: https://goo.gl/6AiiIm (These are GitHub links, showing the current tip-of-master versions, shortened so they don’t break due to line wrapping.) The major change is that I’ve replaced the context object idea with direct Dancer DSL calls. I had poor justifications for this object, which I realized after watching Alexis Sukrieh’s 2015 conference video. That in turn allowed me to drop a level of function calls, which makes the recommended design considerably cleaner. I’ve also fixed up some UTF-8 problems, so you don’t get broken Latin-1 characters when viewing the articles in a web browser. (They look fine on a UTF-8 terminal. :) )
