NAME¶
Dancer::Serializer - serializer wrapper for Dancer
DESCRIPTION¶
This module is the wrapper that provides support for different serializers.
USAGE¶
Configuration¶
The
serializer configuration variable tells Dancer which serializer to
use to deserialize request and serialize response.
You change it either in your config.yml file:
serializer: "YAML"
Or in the application code:
# setting JSON as the default serializer
set serializer => 'JSON';
In your routes you can access parameters just like any route.
When in a route you return a Perl data structure, it will be serialized
automatically to the respective serialized engine (for instance,
"JSON").
For "PUT" and "POST" methods you can access the
"request-"body> as a string, and you can unserialize it, if you
really need. If your content type is recognized by the serializer,
"request-"body> will be unserialized automatically, and it will
be available as a standard parameter.
For instance, if you call
curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json -d "{'id':'bar'}" /foo
your "foo" route can do something like:
post "/foo" => {
my $id = param('id'); # gets "bar"
# ...
}
