Gluu fer the Wëëbb Part 3

There is always more than one way to do something in perl and Toto definitely lives up to that old adage.

When I first started I simply aped what was on the POD so my set up was like this



plugin 'toto' =>
nav => [ qw{character} ],
sidebar => {
character => [ qw{character/list character/search character} ],
},
tabs => {
character=> [qw/view edit delete/],
};

which is fine but a doing a little more sniffing about inside the guts of the mod and some of the examples I was able to figure out rather quickly I could get the same results with a different setup.


plugin toto => menu => [
   character => {
       many => [qw{list search create}],
       one => [qw{view update delete}],
     },
     ];

which I actually like a little better than the first time I played with it.

As well I was able to clean up the code a bit as before I had this


get '/character/view/:name' => { nav_item => 'character\view' } => sub {

now I only need this


get '/character/view/:name' => { nav_item => 'character' } => sub {

Which to me looks much better so I am going to use that from now on.
