(Buzzwords) =over 4 =item DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) Jifty tries not to make you say things more than once. =item Full-stack Out of the proverbial box, Jifty comes with one way to do everything you should need to do: One database mapper, one templating system, one web services layer, one AJAX toolkit, one set of handlers for standalone or FastCGI servers. We work hard to make all the bits play well together, so you don't have to. =item Continuations With Jifty, it's easy to let the user go off and do something else, like fill out a wizard, look something up in the help system or go twiddle their preferences and come right back to where they were. =item Form-based dispatch This is one of the things that Jifty does that we've not seen anywhere else. Jifty owns your form rendering and processing. This means you never need to write form handling logic. All you say is "I want an input for this argument here" and Jifty takes care of the rest. (Even autocomplete and validation) =item A Pony Jifty is the only web application framework that comes with a pony. =back =head2 Introduction If this is your first time using Jifty, L is probably a better place to start. =cut use base qw/Jifty::Object/; use Jifty::Everything; use vars qw/$HANDLE $CONFIG $LOGGER $HANDLER $API $CLASS_LOADER $PUB_SUB @PLUGINS/; =head1 METHODS =head2 new PARAMHASH This class method instantiates a new C object. This object deals with configuration files, logging and database handles for the system. Before this method returns, it calls the application's C method (i.e. Cstart>) to handle any application-specific startup. Most of the time, the server will call this for you to set up your C object. If you are writing command-line programs that want to use your libraries (as opposed to web services) you will need to call this yourself. See L for details on how to configure your Jifty application. =head3 Arguments =over =item no_handle If this is set to true, Jifty will not create a L and connect to a database. Only use this if you're about to drop the database or do something extreme like that; most of Jifty expects the handle to exist. Defaults to false. =item logger_component The name that Jifty::Logger will log under. If you don't specify anything Jifty::Logger will log under the empty string. See L for more infomation. =back =cut sub new { my $ignored_class = shift; # Setup the defaults my %args = ( no_handle => 0, logger_component => undef, @_ ); # Add the appliation's library path push @INC, File::Spec->catdir(Jifty::Util->app_root, "lib"); # Now that we've loaded the configuration, we can remove the temporary # Jifty::DBI::Record baseclass for records and insert our "real" baseclass, # which is likely Record::Cachable or Record::Memcached @Jifty::Record::ISA = grep { $_ ne 'Jifty::DBI::Record' } @Jifty::Record::ISA; # Configure the base class used by Jifty models my $record_base_class = Jifty->config->framework('Database')->{'RecordBaseClass'}; Jifty::Util->require( $record_base_class ); push @Jifty::Record::ISA, $record_base_class unless $record_base_class eq 'Jifty::Record'; # Logger turn on Jifty->logger( Jifty::Logger->new( $args{'logger_component'} ) ); # Set up plugins my @plugins; my @plugins_to_load = @{Jifty->config->framework('Plugins')}; my $app_plugin = Jifty->app_class('Plugin'); for (my $i = 0; my $plugin = $plugins_to_load[$i]; $i++) { # Prepare to learn the plugin class name my $plugin_name = (keys %{$plugin})[0]; my $class; # Is the plugin name a fully-qualified class name? if ($plugin_name =~ /^(?:Jifty::Plugin|$app_plugin)::/) { # app-specific plugins use fully qualified names, Jifty plugins may $class = $plugin_name; } # otherwise, assume it's a short name, qualify it else { $class = "Jifty::Plugin::".$plugin_name; } # Load the plugin options my %options = %{ $plugin->{ $plugin_name } }; # Load the plugin code Jifty::Util->require($class); Jifty::ClassLoader->new(base => $class)->require; # Initialize the plugin and mark the prerequisites for loading too my $plugin_obj = $class->new(%options); push @plugins, $plugin_obj; foreach my $name ($plugin_obj->prereq_plugins) { next if grep { $_ eq $name } @plugins_to_load; push @plugins_to_load, {$name => {}}; } } # All plugins loaded, save them for later reference Jifty->plugins(@plugins); # Now that we have the config set up and loaded plugins, # load the localization files.
