Where's the best place to look for a slightly more extended tutorial
than the one that comes with catalyst.

I've used catalyst.pl to create an app, and even had single lines of
text displayed in my browser after running server.pl.

Then I kinda get confused and lost.

I created a view class using TT (not what I want to use in the long run,
but I have to start somewhere), and a model using postgres, I just can't
see how to tie them together to make something that populates templates
from database table(s).

I found the Hops alpha app inthe archives, but this doesn't look to be
built using catalyst.pl and script/create.pl

Are there any sample apps out there to get me going?

You mean accessing tables from templates? not storing templates in the
db?

The glue is $c->stash.

$c->stash->{foo} = MyApp::M::CDBI::Table->search(...);

[% foo.first.somefield %]

Cat is quite young, so most apps are still in development. ;)

MiniMojo (already uses unreleased Catalyst 5)

Yeah, sorry, I wasn't clear. Lucky you knew what I meant. You must be
Perl :)

Cool

Yeah, I'm aware it's quite young still, and pleased at how much
documentation there actually is, and how clean and well thought out
things feel.

Sweet, I'll poke this and drag it to my laptop for investigation on the
train.

Thanks,

Should it be possible to svn checkout the trunk?

Tweaking http://maypole.perl.org/?Download I tried:

chisel@ferrari tmp $ svn checkout
http://maypole.perl.org/repos/mojomojo/trunk mojomojo
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repos/mojomojo/!svn/vcc/default'
svn: REPORT of '/repos/mojomojo/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request
(http://maypole.perl.org)

The command on the page fails the same way too. I was hoping to grab
this for offline perusal.

wget -r is no help either...

hi Chisel.
This works fine for me:
svn co http://maypole.perl.org/repos/mojomojo/trunk mojomojo

Maybe something wrong with your svn installation?

Effectively the same thing I typed, mine just makes it call the local
directory mojomojo and not trunk.

I just retried them both, and they both just worked. Hrm.

freaky. Maybe it was just when I restarted yesterday, to add xslt
stylesheets to the SVN dirs.
