Proposed patch for ActionClass attribute
|
|
I implemented application-specific an Application-specific action, and
found the "MyAction" construct to be a little odd. So I took a run at
extending the ActionClass parser to look for a local app version
("MyApp::Action::Foo") first, then to fall back to the Catalyst
version ("Catalyst::Action::Foo") if that's not present. You can still
use "+My::Full::Path" to force a particular selection (such as to skip
over an app version for some reason).
Is there a reason that this wasn't tried before?
I hope this helps. I'd appreciate feedback, and can provide the tests
and doc if this is interesting enough to proceed. Catalyst is a neat
system, and I appreciate the hard work of those who have made it what
it is today.
Cheers,
Bruce
