Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
That worked great with the test script ( print $template->output; ), but
unfortunately, I'm having trouble getting the display onto a web page
(via the Handler). The resulting web page is blank, with no source.
Below are my Apache configs for the handler, logs, and the handler and
view module's latest code. I've also included the test script code, just
in case there is some obvious reason it would work and the handler
won't.

Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Hi.
First, a small disgression : along with perl, comes a beautiful test
tool for HTTP stuff, called "lwp-request".
Like, at the command-line :
lwp-request (to see the options)
lwp-request -m GET -Sed "http://myserver/myURL";
(that will show you what you get as a response, without a browser
getting in the way)
Then, below, are you not now sending one "Content-type" too many ?
It looks like you are doing it once in handler(), and once in mainpage().

I am working on my first Object-Oriented project, and have hit a slight

Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Thanks for the reply.
I thought as you did (that there were too many "Content-Type"
definitions), so commented out this line in the View.pm module, but that
doesn't seem to have changed anything:
'print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";'
Here is the lwp command and output:

Just for clarity's sake, here is the test script command and output:
---
$ tests/View_mainpage.pl
### HTML::Template Debug ### In _parse:
### HTML::Template _param Stack Dump ###
$VAR1 = [
\'Test!
'
];
### HTML::Template Debug ### In output

Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Hi.
First, don't take my suggestions as gospel, I don't know the TT2 and do
not really know how you're supposed to work with it.
But it seems to me that this is in the wrong order :
$view->mainpage;
$self->content_type('text/html');
I think you should trigger the HTTP header before you generate the
content. Now, whether that is the reason of your current problem or
not, I haven't a clue.
But I'm trying, and I'm really interested, because I am starting to want
to know more about TT2 (and Catalyst) these days. So your
"from-the-very beginning" approach is also very helpful to me.
(And I do have a certain experience of Apache2/mod_perl2)
And, re-check your lwp-request switches, you might have disabled the
display of the response content (remove the -d).

Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Good suggestion, I moved the content_type to the top of the handler
routine in Handler.pm, so it now looks like:

sub handler {
my $self= shift;
$self->content_type('text/html');
my $view= Myserver::View->new();
$view->mainpage;
# Obligatory stuff for the handler
return Apache2::Const::OK;
}

I am still getting a blank page, though. Here is the latest lwp-request

Re: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Hi.
I know it's not clean, and it is probably not what you need to do in the
long run, and I don't know a bit about HTML::Template.
But why don't you try the following, just to check :

I think you should trigger the HTTP header before you generate the
content. Now, whether that is the reason of your current problem or
not, I haven't a clue.
But I'm trying, and I'm really interested, because I am starting to want
to know more about TT2 (and Catalyst) these days. So your

I thought as you did (that there were too many "Content-Type"

It looks like you are doing it once in handler(), and once in mainpage().

Below are my Apache configs for the handler, logs, and the handler and

in case there is some obvious reason it would work and the handler
won't.
Apache config:
PerlRequire /etc/httpd/perl/startup.pl

RE: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
SetHandler modperl doesn't bind 'print' to '$r->print'. Try SetHandler
perl-script, or change your code to pass in the request object and use
$r->print instead of print.

RE: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
Thank you all for your advice. With that and some help from a mentor, it
is now working, with the below code:
Apache config:
---
PerlSwitches -I/home/Perl/
PerlModule Myserver::Handler
SetHandler modperl
PerlResponseHandler Myserver::Handler
---
Handler.pm:
---
sub handler {
my $request = shift;
my $view= Myserver::View->new();
if (my $output = $view->mainpage()) {
$request->content_type('text/html');
$request->print($output);
return Apache2::Const::OK;
} else {
return Apache2::Const::Declined;
};
1;
---
View.pm
---
sub new {
my $class = shift;
my $self= {};
return bless $self, $class;
}
sub mainpage {
my $self= shift;
my $template= HTML::Template->new(
filename => '/home/Perl/tmpl/mainpage.tmpl',
cache => 1,
debug => 1,
stack_debug => 1 );
return $template->output;
}

RE: Custom Object-Oriented Module using HTML::Template
FYI, for those interested, I had to do some code adjustments. There was
a missing right curly bracket in Handler.pm (need to close the sub), and
I wasn't loading DECLINED properly in Handler.pm. Here is the proper
setup:
---
package Myserver::Handler;
#Setup some essentials
use strict; #strict tolerance for code
use Carp; #debugging
use diagnostics;#more debugging
use warnings; #more debugging
#Handler-related stuff
use Apache2::RequestRec ();
use Apache2::RequestIO ();
use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(OK DECLINED);
#Loadup Apache2::Request so we know what's been passed to us
use Apache2::Request;
#Loadup the Main (Model) and View modules (staying true to the
#Model/View/Control (MVC) (We are, Handler, or Control))
use lib "../";
use Myserver::Main;
use Myserver::View;
sub handler {
# We are an instance method
my $request = shift;
my $view= Myserver::View->new();
if (my $output = $view->mainpage()) {
$request->content_type('text/html');
$request->print($output);
return Apache2::Const::OK;
} else {
return Apache2::Const::DECLINED;
};
}
