NAME Catalyst::View::vCard - vCard view for Catalyst SYNOPSIS # in a controller... my $profile = $foo; $c->stash->{ vcards } = [ $profile ]; $c->stash->{ filename } = $profile->username; $c->forward( $c->view( 'vCard' ) ); # in a view... package MyApp::View:;vCard; use base qw( Catalyst::View::vCard ); sub convert_to_vcard { my( $self, $c, $profile, $vcard ) = @_; $vcard->nickname( $profile->username ); $vcard->fullname( $profile->name ) if $profile->name; $vcard->email( $profile->email ) if $profile->show_email; } DESCRIPTION This is a view to help you serialize objects to vCard output. You can configure the output filename by supplying a name in "$c-"stash->{ filename }> (a ".vcf" extension will automatically added for you). A default "convert_to_vcard" implementation is provided, however you can provide your own to map your object to a Text::vCard object. METHODS process( \@vcards ) This method will loop through and call "convert_to_vcard" on all of the items in the "vcards" key of the stash. convert_to_vcard( $self, $c, $in, $out ) This is a default implementation for converting your items to vCard objects. It will try various hash keys or methods based on the naming scheme of Text::vCard's methods.
