SVN::Web::View(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       SVN::Web::View(3pm)

NAME

       SVN::Web::View - SVN::Web action to view a file in the repository

SYNOPSIS

       In config.yaml

	 actions:
	   ...
	   view:
	     class: SVN::Web::View
	     action_menu:
	       show:
		 - file
	       link_text: (view file)
	   ...

DESCRIPTION

       Shows a specific revision of a file in the Subversion repository.  Includes the commit information for that file.

OPTIONS

       rev     The revision of the file to show.  Defaults to the repository's youngest revision.

	       If this is not an interesting revision for this file, the repository history is searched to find the youngest interesting revision
	       for this file that is less than "rev".

TEMPLATE VARIABLES

       at_head A boolean value, indicating whether the user is currently viewing the HEAD of the file in the repository.

       context Always "file".

       rev     The revision that has been returned.  This is not necessarily the same as the "rev" option passed to the action.  If the "rev"
	       passed to the action is not interesting (i.e., there were no changes to the file at that revision) then the file's history is
	       searched backwards to find the next oldest interesting revision.

       youngest_rev
	       The youngest interesting revision of the file.

       mimetype
	       The file's MIME type, extracted from the file's "svn:mime-type" property.  If this is not set then "text/plain" is used.

       file    The contents of the file.

       author  The revision's author.

       date    The date the revision was committed, formatted according to "Time and date formatting" in SVN::Web.

       msg     The revision's commit message.

EXCEPTIONS

       None.
