Catalyst::Plugin::FirePHP 0.01_03

Catalyst::Plugin::FirePHP is a Perl module that automatically binds the current response headers to a newly created FirePHP::Dispatcher in use and on demand creates nested groups for all called actions.

The only thing you need to do to start using FirePHP is include this plugin in your plugin list. Everything else should happen automatically, no config is needed.

This plugin tries to be as unintrusive as possible if your application doesn't run in debug mode, but it is highly recommended to drop it altogether in production servers.

SYNOPSIS

In your application class (e.g. MyApp.pm):

 use Catalyst ( ..., '+Catalyst::Plugin::FirePHP' );
 use Catalyst::Log::Log4perl;

 __PACKAGE__->config(
 name => 'Just a Catalyst application',
 FirePHP => { action_grouping => 1, compact => 1 }
 );

 # only if you want to change the appender layout to use cspecs
 __PACKAGE__->log( Catalyst::Log::Log4perl->new(
 'log4perl.conf', override_cspecs => 1
 ));

In your log4perl config (only if you want to change the message layout):

 log4perl.rootLogger = DEBUG, SCREEN, FIREPHP
 log4perl.appender.SCREEN = Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen
 log4perl.appender.SCREEN.layout = SimpleLayout

 log4perl.appender.FIREPHP = FirePHP::Log4perl::Appender
 log4perl.appender.FIREPHP.layout = FirePHP::Log4perl::Layout

And later...

 $c->log->debug("This is using log4perl AND FirePHP!");
