Catalyst::View::vCard - vCard view for Catalyst
# in a controller... my $profile = $foo; $c->stash->{ vcards } = [ $profile ]; $c->stash->{ filename } = $profile->username; $c->forward( $c->view( 'vCard' ) ); # in a view... package MyApp::View::vCard; use base qw( Catalyst::View::vCard ); sub convert_to_vcard { my( $self, $c, $profile, $vcard ) = @_; $vcard->nickname( $profile->username ); $vcard->fullname( $profile->name ) if $profile->name; $vcard->email( $profile->email ) if $profile->show_email; }
This is a view to help you serialize objects to vCard output. You can configure the output filename by supplying a name in $c-stash->{ filename }> (a .vcf extension will automatically added for you). A default convert_to_vcard implementation is provided, however you can provide your own to map your object to a Text::vCard object.
$c-
.vcf
convert_to_vcard
This method will loop through and call convert_to_vcard on all of the items in the vcards key of the stash.
vcards
This is a default implementation for converting your items to vCard objects. It will try various hash keys or methods based on the naming scheme of Text::vCard's methods.
