DESCRIPTION

Want to use a MicroMason component in your views? No problem! Catalyst::View::MicroMason comes to the rescue.

CAVEATS

You have to define template_root. If template_root is not directly defined within config, the value comes from config-{root}>. If you don't define it at all, MicroMason is going to use the root of your system.

METHODS

process

Renders the component specified in $c->stash->{template} or $c->request->match to $c->response->output.

Note that the component name must be absolute, or is converted to absolute (ie, a / is added to the beginning if it doesn't start with one)

MicroMason global variables $base, $c and c<$name> are automatically set to the base, context and name of the app, respectively.

config

This allows your view subclass to pass additional settings to the Mason Text::MicroMason->new constructor.
