NAME App::ZofCMS::Plugin::FileList - ZofCMS plugin to display lists of files SYNOPSIS In your Main Config file or ZofCMS template: plugins => [ qw/FileList/ ], plug_file_list => { list => { list1 => 'pics', list2 => 'pics2', }, }, In your HTML::Template template: DESCRIPTION Module is a App::ZofCMS plugin which provides means to display lists of files. This documentation assumes you've read App::ZofCMS, App::ZofCMS::Config and App::ZofCMS::Template MAIN CONFIG FILE OR ZofCMS TEMPLATE FIRST-LEVEL KEYS "plugins" plugins => [ qw/FileList/ ], You would definitely want to add the plugin into the list of plugins to execute :) "plug_file_list" plug_file_list => { name => 0, re => qr/[.]jpg$/i, list => { list1 => 'pics', list2 => [ qw/pics2 pics3/ ], }, }, plug_file_list => { list => [ qw/pics pics2/ ], }, plug_file_list => { list => 'pics', }, You can specify the "plug_file_list" first-level key in either Main Config File or ZofCMS Template file. Specifying the same keys in both will lead to the ones set in ZofCMS Template take precedence. The "plug_file_list" key takes a hashref as a value. Possible keys/values of that hashref are as follows: "list" plug_file_list => { list => { list1 => 'pics', list2 => [ qw/pics2 pics3/ ], }, }, plug_file_list => { list => [ qw/pics pics2/ ], }, plug_file_list => { list => 'pics', }, The "list" key specifies the directories in which to search for files. The value of that key can be either a hashref, arrayref or a scalar. If the value is not a hashref it will be converted into a hashref as follows: plug_file_list => { list => 'pics', # a scalar }, # same as plug_file_list => { list => [ 'pics' ], # arrayref }, # same as # hashref with a key that has a scalar value plug_file_list => { list => { plug_file_list => 'pics', } }, # same as # hashref with a key that has an arrayref value plug_file_list => { list => { plug_file_list => [ 'pics' ], } }, The hashref assigned to "list" (or converted from other values) takes the following meaning: the keys of that hashref are the names of the keys in "{t}" ZofCMS Template special key and the values are the lists (arrayrefs) of directories in which to search for files. See SYNOPSIS section for some examples. Note that default "{t}" key would be "plug_file_list" as is shown in conversion examples above. "re" plug_file_list => { re => qr/[.]jpg$/i, list => 'pics', }, Optional. The "re" argument takes a regex as a value ("qr//"). If specified only the files that match the regex will be listed. By default is not specified. "name" plug_file_list => { name => 0, list => 'foo', }, Optional. Takes either true or false values, specifies whether or not to create the "name" "" in the output. See "HTML::Template TEMPLATES" section below. Defaults to: 1 (*do* create) HTML::Template TEMPLATES In HTML::Template templates you'd show the file lists in the following fashion: The name of the "" is what you specified (directly or indirectly) as keys in the "list" hashref (see above). Inside the loop there are two "" that you can use: "" The "" will contain the path to the file, that is the directory you specified . '/' . file name. "" The "" (providing the "name" key in "plug_file_list" hashref is set to a true value) will contain just the filename of the file.
