It is also the default controller class unless you set L<Mojolicious/"controller_class">. =head1 ATTRIBUTES L<Mojolicious::Controller> implements the following attributes. =head2 app my $app = $c->app; $c = $c->app(Mojolicious->new); A reference back to the application that dispatched to this controller, usually a L<Mojolicious> object. # Use application logger $c->app->log->debug('Hello Mojo'); # Generate path my $path = $c->app->home->child('templates', 'foo', 'bar.html.ep'); =head2 match my $m = $c->match; $c = $c->match(Mojolicious::Routes::Match->new); Router results for the current request, defaults to a L<Mojolicious::Routes::Match> object. # Introspect my $name = $c->match->endpoint->name; my $foo = $c->match->endpoint->pattern->defaults->{foo}; my $action = $c->match->stack->[-1]{action}; =head2 tx my $tx = $c->tx; $c = $c->tx(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP->new); The transaction that is currently being processed, usually a L<Mojo::Transaction::HTTP> or L<Mojo::Transaction::WebSocket> object. Note that this reference is usually weakened to protect you from hard to detect memory leaks. So the object needs to be referenced elsewhere as well when you're performing non-blocking operations and the underlying connection might get closed early. # Check peer information my $address = $c->tx->remote_address; my $port = $c->tx->remote_port; # Increase size limit for WebSocket messages to 16MiB $c->tx->max_websocket_size(16777216) if $c->tx->is_websocket; # Perform non-blocking operation without knowing the connection status my $tx = $c->tx; Mojo::IOLoop->timer(2 => sub { $c->app->log->debug($tx->is_finished ? 'Finished' : 'In progress'); }); =head1 METHODS L<Mojolicious::Controller> inherits all methods from L<Mojo::Base> and implements the following new ones. =head2 continue $c->continue; Continue dispatch chain from an intermediate destination with L<Mojolicious::Routes/"continue">. =head2 cookie my $value = $c->cookie('foo'); $c = $c->cookie(foo => 'bar'); $c = $c->cookie(foo => 'bar', {path => '/'}); Access request cookie values and create new response cookies. If there are multiple values sharing the same name, and you want to access more than just the last one, you can use L</"every_cookie">. # Create response cookie with domain and expiration date $c->cookie(user => 'sri', {domain => 'example.com', expires => time + 60}); # Create secure response cookie $c->cookie(secret => 'I <3 Mojolicious', {secure => 1, httponly => 1}); =head2 every_cookie my $values = $c->every_cookie('foo'); Similar to L</"cookie">, but returns all request cookie values sharing the same name as an array reference. $ Get first cookie value my $first = $c->every_cookie('foo')->[0]; =head2 every_param my $values = $c->every_param('foo'); Similar to L</"param">, but returns all values sharing the same name as an array reference. # Get first value my $first = $c->every_param('foo')->[0]; =head2 every_signed_cookie my $values = $c->every_signed_cookie('foo'); Similar to L</"signed_cookie">, but returns all signed request cookie values sharing the same name as an array reference. # Get first signed cookie value my $first = $c->every_signed_cookie('foo')->[0]; =head2 finish $c = $c->finish; $c = $c->finish(1000); $c = $c->finish(1003 => 'Cannot accept data!'); $c = $c->finish('Bye!'); Close WebSocket connection or long poll stream gracefully. This method will automatically respond to WebSocket handshake requests with a C<101> response status, to establish the WebSocket connection. =head2 flash my $foo = $c->flash('foo'); $c = $c->flash({foo => 'bar'}); $c = $c->flash(foo => 'bar'); Data storage persistent only for the next request, stored in the L</"session">. # Show message after redirect $c->flash(message => 'User created successfully!'); $c->redirect_to('show_user', id => 23); =head2 helpers my $helpers = $c->helpers; Return a proxy object containing the current controller object and on which helpers provided by L</"app"> can be called. This includes all helpers from L<Mojolicious::Plugin::DefaultHelpers> and L<Mojolicious::Plugin::TagHelpers>. # Make sure to use the "title" helper and not the controller method $c->helpers->title('Welcome!'); # Use a nested helper instead of the "reply" controller method $c->helpers->reply->not_found; =head2 on my $cb = $c->on(finish => sub {...}); Subscribe to events of L</"tx">, which is usually a L<Mojo::Transaction::HTTP> or L<Mojo::Transaction::WebSocket> object. This method will automatically respond to WebSocket handshake requests with a C<101> response status, to establish the WebSocket connection. # Do something after the transaction has been finished $c->on(finish => sub { my $c = shift; $c->app->log->debug('All data has been sent'); }); # Receive WebSocket message $c->on(message => sub { my ($c, $msg) = @_; $c->app->log->debug("Message: $msg"); }); # Receive JSON object via WebSocket message $c->on(json => sub { my ($c, $hash) = @_; $c->app->log->debug("Test: $hash->{test}"); }); # Receive WebSocket "Binary" message $c->on(binary => sub { my ($c, $bytes) = @_; my $len = length $bytes; $c->app->log->debug("Received $len bytes"); }); =head2 param my $value = $c->param('foo'); $c = $c->param(foo => 'ba;r'); $c = $c->param(foo => 'ba;r', 'baz'); $c = $c->param(foo => ['ba;r', 'baz']); Access route placeholder values that are not reserved stash values, file uploads as well as C<GET> and C<POST> parameters extracted from the query string and C<application/x-www-form-urlencoded> or C<multipart/form-data> message body, in that order. If there are multiple values sharing the same name, and you want to access more than just the last one, you can use L</"every_param">. Parts of the request body need to be loaded into memory to parse C<POST> parameters, so you have to make sure it is not excessively large. There's a 16MiB limit for requests by default. # Get first value my $first = $c->every_param('foo')->[0]; For more control you can also access request information directly. # Only GET parameters my $foo = $c->req->query_params->param('foo'); # Only POST parameters my $foo = $c->req->body_params->param('foo'); # Only GET and POST parameters my $foo = $c->req->param('foo'); # Only file uploads my $foo = $c->req->upload('foo'); =head2 redirect_to $c = $c->redirect_to('named', foo => 'bar'); $c = $c->redirect_to('named', {foo => 'bar'}); $c = $c->redirect_to('/index.html'); $c = $c->redirect_to('http://example.com/index.html'); Prepare a C<302> (if the status code is not already C<3xx>) redirect response with C<Location> header, takes the same arguments as L</"url_for">. # Moved Permanently $c->res->code(301); $c->redirect_to('some_route'); # Temporary Redirect $c->res->code(307); $c->redirect_to('some_route'); =head2 render my $bool = $c->render; my $bool = $c->render(foo => 'bar', baz => 23); my $bool = $c->render(template => 'foo/index');

=head2 rendered $c = $c->rendered; $c = $c->rendered(302); Finalize response and emit hook L<Mojolicious/"after_dispatch">, defaults to using a C<200> response code. # Custom response $c->res->headers->content_type('text/plain');

$c->res->headers->append(Vary => 'Accept-Encoding'); =head2 respond_to $c = $c->respond_to( json => {json => {message => 'Welcome!'}}, html => {template => 'welcome'}, any => sub {...} ); Automatically select best possible representation for resource from C<format> C<GET>/C<POST> parameter, C<format> stash value or C<Accept> request header, defaults to L<Mojolicious::Renderer/"default_format"> or rendering an empty C<204> response. Each representation can be handled with a callback or a hash reference containing arguments to be passed to L</"render">. # Everything else than "json" and "xml" gets a 204 response $c->respond_to( json => sub { $c->render(json => {just => 'works'}) }, xml => {text => '<just>works</just>'}, any => {data => '', status => 204} ); For more advanced negotiation logic you can also use the helper L<Mojolicious::Plugin::DefaultHelpers/"accepts">. =head2 send $c = $c->send({binary => $bytes}); $c = $c->send({text => $bytes}); $c = $c->send({json => {test => [1, 2, 3]}}); $c = $c->send([$fin, $rsv1, $rsv2, $rsv3, $op, $payload]); $c = $c->send($chars); $c = $c->send($chars => sub {...}); Send message or frame non-blocking via WebSocket, the optional drain callback will be executed once all data has been written. This method will automatically respond to WebSocket handshake requests with a C<101> response status, to establish the WebSocket connection. # Send "Text" message $c->send('I ♥ Mojolicious!'); # Send JSON object as "Text" message $c->send({json => {test => 'I ♥ Mojolicious!'}}); # Send JSON object as "Binary" message use Mojo::JSON 'encode_json'; $c->send({binary => encode_json({test => 'I ♥ Mojolicious!'})}); # Send "Ping" frame use Mojo::WebSocket 'WS_PING'; $c->send([1, 0, 0, 0, WS_PING, 'Hello World!']); # Make sure the first message has been written before continuing $c->send('First message!' => sub { my $c = shift; $c->send('Second message!'); }); For mostly idle WebSockets you might also want to increase the inactivity timeout with L<Mojolicious::Plugin::DefaultHelpers/"inactivity_timeout">, which usually defaults to C<15> seconds. # Increase inactivity timeout for connection to 300 seconds $c->inactivity_timeout(300); =head2 session my $session = $c->session; my $foo = $c->session('foo'); $c = $c->session({foo => 'bar'}); $c = $c->session(foo => 'bar'); Persistent data storage for the next few requests, all session data gets serialized with L<Mojo::JSON> and stored Base64 encoded in HMAC-SHA1 signed cookies, to prevent tampering. Note that cookies usually have a C<4096> byte (4KiB) limit, depending on browser. # Manipulate session $c->session->{foo} = 'bar'; my $foo = $c->session->{foo}; delete $c->session->{foo}; # Expiration date in seconds from now (persists between requests) $c->session(expiration => 604800); # Expiration date as absolute epoch time (only valid for one request) $c->session(expires => time + 604800); # Delete whole session by setting an expiration date in the past $c->session(expires => 1); =head2 signed_cookie my $value = $c->signed_cookie('foo'); $c = $c->signed_cookie(foo => 'bar'); $c = $c->signed_cookie(foo => 'bar', {path => '/'}); Access signed request cookie values and create new signed response cookies. If there are multiple values sharing the same name, and you want to access more than just the last one, you can use L</"every_signed_cookie">. Cookies are cryptographically signed with HMAC-SHA1, to prevent tampering, and the ones failing signature verification will be automatically discarded. =head2 stash my $hash = $c->stash; my $foo = $c->stash('foo'); $c = $c->stash({foo => 'bar', baz => 23}); $c = $c->stash(foo => 'bar', baz => 23); Non-persistent data storage and exchange for the current request, application wide default values can be set with L<Mojolicious/"defaults">. Some stash values have a special meaning and are reserved, the full list is currently C<action>, C<app>, C<cb>, C<controller>, C<data>, C<extends>, C<format>, C<handler>, C<inline>, C<json>, C<layout>, C<namespace>, C<path>, C<status>, C<template>, C<text> and C<variant>.
