Re: does a script run via plackup knows where it is?

Maybe, probably–

# app.psgi, cp or mv it around and plackitup. :P
use Path::Tiny;
my $location = path(__FILE__)->absolute;
sub { [ 200, [], ["OHAI $location!"] ] }

Update: I actually think a command line argument or plackup wrapper might be a better choice here. Multiple copies of code is code smell.

Yep, thanks a lot. The only thing you need watch out for is that your above $location is actually an object and when you return that from a Dancer2 handler it confuses Dancer greatly. But it solves my my need in an already bad-smelling hack, so never mind code-smell...	[reply]

That's partly why I quoted it in the example. It stringifies the object. You can, as you probably already found, do `$location->stringify` too.	[reply] [d/l]
