I see Dancer2::Plugin::REST, is that the recommended one? It looks good… any experiences with it?
I always end up doing serialization "myself", instead of relying in plugins. Because many times there will be some edge cases that using the plugin will require a huge workaround. While handling the serialization yourself it's always easier to adapt. And even so I usually end up with very simple and clean applications like:
sub '/users' => sub { to_json MyModel->users; };
If you prefer you can also use the "set serializer" option, to omit the to_json parts, or if you intend to have more than one serializer possible
Yeah… I have a base class for all my models so I'll probably take that route. Thank you all, -- Pedro Melo @pedromelo http://www.simplicidade.org/ xmpp:melo@simplicidade.org mailto:melo@simplicidade.org
