NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::ViewCode - View the source of the running application

SYNOPSIS

       In your CGI::Application based class

	   use CGI::Application::Plugin::ViewCode;

       Then you can view your module's source (or pod) as it's running by changing the url

	   ?rm=view_code
	   ?rm=view_code#215
	   ?rm=view_code&pod=0&line_no=0
	   ?rm=view_code&module=CGI-Application

	   ?rm=view_pod
	   ?rm=view_pod&module=CGI-Application

INTERFACE

       This plugin works by adding extra run modes (named "view_code" and " view_pod ") to the application. By calling this run mode you can see
       the source or POD of the running module (by default) or you can specify which module you would like to view (see SECURITY).

   view_code
       This extra run mode will accept the following arguments in the query string:

       module
	   The name of the module to view. By default it is the module currently being run. Also, since colons (':') aren't simply typed into
	   URL's, you can just substitute '-' for '::'.

	       ?rm=view_code?module=My-Base-Class

       highlight
	   Boolean indicates whether syntax highlighting (using Syntax::Highlight::Perl::Improved) is "on" or "off". By default it is "on".

       line_no
	   Boolean indicates whether the viewing of line numbers is "on" or "off". By default it is "on".  It "line_no" is on, you can also
	   specify which line number you want to see by adding an anchor to the link:

	       ?rm=view_code#215

	   This will take you immediately to line 215 of the current application module.

       pod Boolean indicates whether POD is seen or not. By default it is seen>.

   view_pod
       This extra run mode will accept the following arguments in the query string:

       module
	   The name of the module to view. By default it is the module currently being run. Also, since colons (':') aren't simply typed into
	   URL's, you can just substitute '-' for '::'.

	       ?rm=view_pod?module=My-Base-Class

AS A POPUP WINDOW

       This plugin can be used in conjunction with CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup. If we detect that CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup is
       running and turned on, we will create a sub-report that includes the highlighted source code.

       So you can simply do the following:

	   BEGIN { $ENV{CAP_DEVPOPUP_EXEC} = 1; } # turn it on for real
	   use CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup;
	   use CGI::Application::Plugin::ViewCode;

       Befault, this report will be the same thing produced by "view_code". If you want this report to include the "view_pod" report, simply set
       the the $ENV{CAP_VIEWCODE_POPUP_POD} to true. You can also turn off the "view_code" report but setting $ENV{CAP_VIEWCODE_POPUP_CODE} to
       false.

	   # have the POD report, but not the code in the dev popup window
	   BEGIN {
	       $ENV{CAP_DEVPOPUP_EXEC} = 1;	  # turn it on for real
	       $ENV{CAP_VIEWCODE_POPUP_POD} = 1;  # turn on POD report
	       $ENV{CAP_VIEWCODE_POPUP_CODE} = 0; # turn off code report
	   }
	   use CGI::Application::Plugin::DevPopup;
	   use CGI::Application::Plugin::ViewCode;

SECURITY

       This plugin is designed to be used for development only. Please do not use it in a production system as it will allow anyone to see the
       source code for any loaded module.  Consider yourself warned.
