Dancer::Plugin::MobileDevice - make a Dancer app mobile-aware
version 0.05
package MyWebApp; use Dancer; use Dancer::Plugin::MobileDevice; get '/' => sub { if (is_mobile_device) { # do something for mobile } else { # do something for regular agents } };
A plugin for Dancer-powered webapps to easily detect mobile clients and offer a simplified layout, and/or act in different ways.
The plugin offers a is_mobile_device keyword, which returns true if the device is recognised as a mobile device.
is_mobile_device
It can also automatically change the layout used to render views for mobile clients.
This plugin can use a custom layout for recognised mobile devices, allowing you to present a simplified page template for mobile devices. To enable this, use the mobile_layout setting for this plugin - for instance, add the following to your config file:
mobile_layout
plugins: MobileDevice: mobile_layout: 'mobile'
This means that, when template is called to render a view, if the client is recognised as a mobile device, the layout named mobile will be used, rather than whatever the current layout setting is.
template
mobile
layout
You can of course still override this layout by supplying a layout option to the template call in the usual way (see the Dancer documentation for how to do this).
