Dancer2 and Yeoman integrating nicely

Dancer2 and Angular changes to

bin/app.pl

Generate the backend components...

  651  dancer2 gen -a CMA 
  652  cd CMA
  652  yo angular cma

Rearranging the public / dancer web directories.

  709  vi bin/app.psgi
    insert
BEGIN {
  $ENV{'DBIC_TRACE'}    = 1;
  $ENV{'RELATIVE'} = 1;
}
  710  cd app
  711  ln -s ../bower_components .
  712  cd ../lib && vi CMA.pm
    edit
use Cwd;
set auto_page => 1;
# set the new views directory to absolute path
set views => getcwd . "/app";


get '/' => sub {
 template 'index';
};

# catch anything that cannot be served html extension 
# with template, else just serve the files requested based on the absolute
# path of the files
any qr{.*} => sub {
  my $name = request->path;
  print "request for end of chain: $name\n";
  #print Dumper( config->{appdir} );
  if ( $name !~ /\.html$/ ) {
    send_file( config->{appdir} . "/app/$name", system_path => 1 );
  }
  else {
    template $name;
  }
};

  
  712  cd ..
  719  plackup -r bin/app.psgi 

After this you could remove the public and views directory since they have no purpose. The 'app' directory generated by Yeoman contains all the application files.

Dancer & Yeoman scaffolding... what needs changed

So here a quick one for integrating dancer and yeoman angular generation.

$ dancer -a myapp
$ cd myapp
$ yo angular myapp
$ rm public

# This is the main configuration file of your Dancer app
# env-related settings should go to environments/$env.yml
# all the settings in this file will be loaded at Dancer's startup.

# Your application's name
appname: "myapp"

# The default layout to use for your application (located in
# views/layouts/main.tt)
layout: "main"

# when the charset is set to UTF-8 Dancer will handle for you
# all the magic of encoding and decoding. You should not care
# about unicode within your app when this setting is set (recommended).
charset: "UTF-8"

# template engine
# simple: default and very basic template engine
# template_toolkit: 
serializer: JSON

template: "template_toolkit"
engines:
  JSON:
    allow_blessed:   '1'
    canonical:       '1'
    convert_blessed: '1' 
  template_toolkit:
    encoding:  'utf8'
    start_tag: '[%'
    end_tag:   '%]'
    WRAPPER: layouts/main.tt
    EVAL_PERL: '1'
 
public: app
auto_reload : true

# For session support enable the following line and see Dancer::Session
# session: "YAML"
plugins:
