NAME
Catalyst::Plugin::OrderedParams - Maintain order of submitted form
parameters
SYNOPSIS
use Catalyst 'OrderedParams';
DESCRIPTION
This plugin enables handling of GET and POST parameters in an ordered
fashion. By default in Catalyst, form parameters are stored in a simple
hash, which loses the original order in which the paramters were
submitted. This plugin stores parameters in a Tie::IxHash which will
retain the original submitted order.
One particular application for this plugin is email handlers, where you
want the output of your email to reflect the order of form elements in
the form.
Simply add this plugin to your application and the following code will
be in the proper order.
for my $param ( $c->req->param ) {
$email .= $param . ": " . $c->req->param( $param );
}
METHODS
prepare_request (extended)
Replace the parameters hash in Catalyst::Request with a tied hash.
