Hi,
after reading some articles on the dancer advent calendar I started to examine dance in order to see, if I can replace my current MasonX::WebApp application with dancer.
So I installed dancer 1.3 , and since I use Mason, I installed Dancer::Template::Mason.
Now I found , that auto_page bypasses the template engine by checking, if a specific template exists , and that behavior its still present in Dancer2.
In Dancer1 the code in Dancer::Renderer is
my $view = Dancer::engine('template')->view($viewpath) || '';
if ($view && -f $view) {
and in Dancer 2 in Dancer::Handler::AutoPage
my $view_path = $template->view($page);
if (! -f $view_path) {
In Dancer::Template::Abstract a method "view_exists " exists , so why not use this?
For Dancer1 the docs tells, override this function in your template class accordingly.
But for auto_page, the template class is not asked if a template exists, and in my opinion,
this behavior is not correct.
What do you think about this ?
Rolf
