appname: "My::App" 

# The default layout to use for your application (located in
# views/layouts/main.tt)
layout: "main"

# when the charset is set to UTF-8 Dancer will handle for you
# all the magic of encoding and decoding. You should not care

charset: "UTF-8"

#template: "simple"
template: "html_template"
engines:
 HtmlTemplate:
   loop_context_vars: '1'
   global_vars: '1'

session: "cookie"
session_cookie_key: "xxxx"

plugins:
               Database:
                   driver: 'mysql'
                   database: 'xxxx'
                   host: 'localhost'
                   username: 'xxxx'
                   password: 'xxxx'

I noticed that some of the other template plugins actually access
$self->config in init() by the way.

Thanks
