Hello Monks.

I am working on a CRUD application using the Catalyst Framework and a Sqlite DB with a DBIx interface.

I have a controller with a list function like so:

sub list :Local {
    # Retrieve the usual Perl OO '$self' for this object. $c is the Ca
+talyst
    # 'Context' that's used to 'glue together' the various components
    # that make up the application
    my ($self, $c) = @_;

    # Retrieve all of the book records as book model objects and store
+ in the
    # stash where they can be accessed by the TT template
    #$c->stash(resultset => [$c->model('DB::User')->all]);
    $c->stash (resultset => $c->model('DB::User')->all);

    use Data::Dumper;
    my $aref = $c->model('User');
    $c->log->debug( Dumper $aref );

    # Set the TT template to use.  You will almost always want to do t
+his
    # in your action methods (action methods respond to user input in
    # your controllers).
    $c->stash(template => 'main/list.tt');
}

Then I am using the following template:

[% cols = resultset.result_source.columns; FOREACH x IN cols; "<li>"  
+_ resultset.$x _ "</li>"; END %]

[% # FOREACH row IN resultset %]Username: [% #row.username %]<br />[% 
+#END %]

<table>
    <tr> 
        <th>User Name</th>
        <th>Password</th>
        <th>Email</th>   
        <th>FName</th>
        <th>LName</th>
        <th>Active</th>
    </tr>

    [% FOREACH row IN resultset %]
        <tr>
            <td>[% row.username %]</td>
            <td>[% row.password %]</td>
            <td>[% row.email_address %]</td>
            <td>[% row.first_name %]</td>
            <td>[% row.last_name %]</td>
            <td>[% row.active %]</td>
        </td>
    [% END %]
</table>

the first line works, when I call:

    $c->stash (resultset => $c->model('DB::User')->all);

but it only displays the first record. My table also only displays the first record in the table.

the first line doesn't work, and m y table displays all records when I call:

    $c->stash (resultset => [$c->model('DB::User')->all]);

The problem is, what if I want to display the results of a different DB?
Seems that I should be able to use the same template... maybe I'm just not groking the model.

The tutorial says these are the same, the first two return undefined values:

  # the long way
  my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->schema->resultset('Actor');

  # using the shortcut method on the model object
  my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor');

  # using the generated class directly
  my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB::Actor');
[download]

Also, this returns a "can't find method" error:

    my $dbic     = $c->model('FilmDB')->schema;
    my $dbic     = $c->model('DB::FilmDB')->schema;

I promise I have read the tutorials more than once.
I think the issue is probably something simple that I'm just misunderstanding.
Can someone please help me instead of just pointing me to the manuals?
