I am working on a script which the user calls a route called /add_news but that route should be able to call itself with a query parameter. This is the smallest amount of code I can come up with to do what I want but it fails every time. The Mojolicious documentation is not clear enough for me to understand what I need to do. 

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Mojolicious::Lite;

get '/add_news' => sub {
    
    my $self = shift;
    my $offset = $self->param('offset') // 0;
        
    if ( $offset > 9 ) {
        $self->render(text => "offset = $offset\n");
    } else {
        $self->redirect_to('/add_news?offset=10');
    }    
};

app->start;

When the code runs with and the offset is greater than 10 I see the rendered text but once I use an offset less than 10 I get a 302 error. I understand it is redirecting but when I look at the output the URL looks correct.

I am using the following curl commands. 

curl http://127.0.0.1:3000/add_news?offset=10
and
curl http://127.0.0.1:3000/add_news?offset=2

How can I make the route call itself?
