NAME

       Dancer::Plugins - interesting plugins to add to Dancer's capabilities

DESCRIPTION

       Dancer aims to keep the core as small as possible, but there are a growing number of useful plugins to add helpful features.

       This document provides a quick summary of some recommended plugins.

PLUGINS

       Dancer::Plugin::Database
	   Provides easy database access via DBI, reading the DB connection details from your app's config file, and taking care of ensuring the
	   connection is still valid and reconnecting if not (useful in persistent environments).  Just calling the "database" keyword gives you a
	   connected and working database handle. It also provides some helpful keywords to make inserting/updating data as simple as it should
	   be.

       Dancer::Plugin::DBIC
	   Provides easy acces to DBIx::Class database virtualization.

       Dancer::Plugin::Auth::RBAC
	   Dancer Authentication, Security and Role-Based Access Control Framework.

       Dancer::Plugin::Email
	   Provides easy email-sending powered by Email::Send - simply call the "email" keyword.  Email sending settings can be taken from your
	   app's config.

       Dancer::Plugin::SMS
	   Send SMS text messages to mobile phones from your Dancer app, using any service supported by SMS::Send.

       Dancer::Plugin::Ajax
	   Provides easy way to add Ajax route handlers.

       Dancer::Plugin::REST
	   Makes writing RESTful web services easy.

       Dancer::Plugin::SiteMap
	   Automatically provides site maps (as a HTML page, or as an XML sitemap ready for Google) based on the routes your app defines.

       Dancer::Plugin::Validation
	   Easy data validation powered by Oogly.

       Dancer::Plugin::Params::Normalization
	   Provides different ways of normalizing parameter names

       Dancer::Plugin::SimpleCRUD
	   Provides easy CRUD (create, read, update, delete) facilities, automatically creating routes to display, add, edit and delete data from
	   a database table.

       Dancer::Plugin::WebSocket
	   Supports building apps using Web Sockets for bi-directional, full-duplex communications over a long-lived socket connection.

       Dancer::Plugin::Memcached
	   Cache page responses or individual items of data with memcached for performance.

       Dancer::Plugin::MobileDevice
	   Quickly determine whether the client is a mobile browser, in order to offer a simplified layout, or otherwise customise features.

       Dancer::Plugin::NYTProf
	   Provides dead-simple profiling of your app using Devel::NYTProf - enables profiling for each request individually, serves up a list of
	   profiling runs, and generates & sends the HTML reports produced by "nytprofhtml".

       Dancer::Plugin::Bcrypt
	   Provides simple effective password hashing and validation using Bcrypt.

       Dancer::Plugin::Cache::CHI
	   Provides caching for generated pages and/or arbitrary data.	Uses CHI, so is backend-agnostic - caching can be done in memory, to
	   files, using Memcache, in a database, or any other method for which there is a CHI::Driver module.

       Dancer::Plugin::Thumbnail
	   Easy thumbnail generation using GD.

       Dancer::Plugin::Captcha::SecurityImage
	   Easy CAPTCHA image generation and validation, using GD.

       Dancer::Plugin::Facebook
	   Easily work with Facebook's Graph API from your Perl Dancer app.  Uses Facebook::Graph.

       Dancer::Plugin::Redis
	   Easy Redis database connections, based upon Dancer::Plugin::Database.

       Dancer::Plugin::XML::RSS
	   Easy XML RSS creation and consumption.

       More plugins are appearing on CPAN all the time - just search for "Dancer::Plugin" to see what may have been released since this document
       was last updated!

NAME

       Dancer::Object - Objects base class for Dancer

SYNOPSIS

	   package My::Dancer::Extension;

	   use strict;
	   use warnings;
	   use base 'Dancer::Object';

	   __PACKAGE__->attributes( qw/name value this that/ );

	   sub init {
	       # our initialization code, if we need one
	   }

DESCRIPTION

       While we love Moose, we can't use it for Dancer and still keep Dancer minimal, so we wrote Dancer::Object instead.

       It provides you with attributes and an initializer.

METHODS

   new
       Creates a new object of whatever is based off Dancer::Object. This is a generic "new" method so you don't have to write one yourself when
       extending "Dancer::Object".

       It accepts arguments in a hash and runs an additional "init" method (described below) which you should implement.

   init
       Exists but does nothing. This is so you won't have to write an initializer if you don't want to.

   clone
       Creates and returns a clone of the object using Clone, which is loaded dynamically. If we cannot load Clone, we throw an exception.

   get_attributes
       Get the attributes of the specific class.

   attributes
       Generates attributes for whatever object is extending Dancer::Object and saves them in an internal hashref so they can be later fetched
       using "get_attributes".

       For each defined attribute you can access its value using:

	 $self->your_attribute_name;

       To set a value use

	 $self->your_attribute_name($value);

       Nevertheless, you can continue to use these attributes as hash keys, as usual with blessed hash references:

	 $self->{your_attribute_name} = $value;

       Although this is possible we defend you should use the method approach, as it maintains compatibility in case "Dancer::Object" structure
       changes in the future.

   attributes_defaults
	 $self->attributes_defaults(length => 2);

       given a hash (not a hashref), makes sure an object has the given attributes default values. Usually called from within an "init" function.
