[dancer-users] Dancer2::Manual: confused as to use of 'appname' keyword to distribute code across packages

[Amelia Ireland]

I didn't read the first email properly -- I think what you want to do is
this:

in WebApp.pm:

package WebApp;

use Dancer2 appname => 'test';
# plus the other dependencies

hook before => sub {
    if (!session('user') && request->dispatch_path !~ m{^/login}) {
        forward '/login', { requested_path => request->dispatch_path };
    }
};

get '/' => sub { template 'index'; };
get '/index' => sub { redirect '/' };

# etc.

1;

in WebApp::API.pm:

package WebApp::API;
use Dancer2 appname => 'test';

# handles everything under /api
prefix '/api' => sub {

    any ['get', 'post'] => '/userdata/:user' => sub {

        my $user_value = route_parameters->get('user');
        my $user = database->quick_select('users', { username =>
$user_value });
        # etc.
    };
};

1;


in app.psgi:

use WebApp;
use WebApp::API;

builder {
    mount '/' => WebApp->to_app   # note that WebApp::API->to_app also
works here
};

To make life even easier for yourself, you can make a wrapper to hold your
various route modules:

package WebAppWrap;
use Dancer2 appname => 'test';
use WebApp;
use WebApp::API;
use WebApp::JSON;
use WebApp::Complex::Package; # each of these modules has appname 'test'
# etc.

in app.psgi:

use WebAppWrap;

builder {
     mount '/' => WebAppWrap->to_app   # pulls in all loaded modules with
appname 'test'
};
