It will detect static files used in your application by looking for file extensions in the URI. By default, you can simply load this plugin and it will immediately begin serving your static files with the correct MIME type. The light-weight MIME::Types module is used to map file extensions to IANA-registered MIME types. Note that actions mapped to paths using periods (.) will still operate properly. You may further tweak the operation by adding configuration options, described below. =head1 ADVANCED CONFIGURATION Configuration is completely optional and is specified within MyApp->config->{static}. If you use any of these options, the module will probably feel less "simple" to you! =head2 Forcing directories into static mode Define a list of top-level directories beneath your 'root' directory that should always be served in static mode. Regular expressions may be specified using qr//. MyApp->config->{static}->{dirs} = [ 'static', qr/^(images|css)/, ]; =head2 Including additional directories (experimental!) You may specify a list of directories in which to search for your static files. The directories will be searched in order and will return the first file found. Note that your root directory is B automatically added to the search path when you specify an include_path. You should use MyApp->config->{root} to add it. MyApp->config->{static}->{include_path} = [ '/path/to/overlay', \&incpath_generator, MyApp->config->{root} ]; With the above setting, a request for the file /images/logo.jpg will search for the following files, returning the first one found: /path/to/overlay/images/logo.jpg /dynamic/path/images/logo.jpg /your/app/home/root/images/logo.jpg The include path can contain a subroutine reference to dynamically return a list of available directories. This method will receive the $c object as a parameter and should return a reference to a list of directories. Errors can be reported using die(). This method will be called every time a file is requested that appears to be a static file (i.e. it has an extension). For example: sub incpath_generator { my $c = shift; if ( $c->session->{customer_dir} ) { return [ $c->session->{customer_dir} ]; } else { die "No customer dir defined."; } } =head2 Custom MIME types To override or add to the default MIME types set by the MIME::Types module, you may enter your own extension to MIME type mapping. MyApp->config->{static}->{mime_types} = { jpg => 'image/jpg', png => 'image/png', }; =head2 Apache integration and performance Optionally, when running under mod_perl, Static::Simple can return DECLINED on static files to allow Apache to serve the file. A check is first done to make sure that Apache's DocumentRoot matches your Catalyst root, and that you are not using any custom MIME types or multiple roots. To enable the Apache support, you can set the following option. MyApp->config->{static}->{use_apache} = 1; By default this option is disabled because after several benchmarks it appears that just serving the file from Catalyst is the better option. On a 3K file, Catalyst appears to be around 25% faster, and is 42% faster on a 10K file. My benchmarking was done using the following 'siege' command, so other benchmarks would be welcome! siege -u http://server/static/css/10K.css -b -t 1M -c 1 For best static performance, you should still serve your static files directly from Apache by defining a Location block similar to the following: SetHandler default-handler =head2 Bypassing other plugins This plugin checks for a static file in the prepare_action stage. If the request is for a static file, it will bypass all remaining prepare_action steps. This means that by placing Static::Simple before all other plugins, they will not execute when a static file is found. This can be helpful by skipping session cookie checks for example. Or, if you want some plugins to run even on static files, list them before Static::Simple. Currently, work done by plugins in any other prepare method will execute normally. =head2 Debugging information Enable additional debugging information printed in the Catalyst log. This is automatically enabled when running Catalyst in -Debug mode.
