Catalyst Framework - target tt2 view

solegaonkar has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks! Need some help with Catalyst framework I have an application that uses Catalyst. The Root.pm controller performs some checks before passing it over to the tt2. I need to skip this for some pages. But, I am not able to identify the target view tt2 in the root controller. Can you please help!

If you want to change the view for a page/method inside a controller you can do this. `$c->stash->{current_view} = 'OTHER_VIEW';` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Besides changing the view, as suggested, if you’re using `sub end : ActionClass('RenderView') {}`, Catalyst::Action::RenderView—and you probably should be—then all you have to do is write something to the body and the view processing will be skippped. E.g.– `sub moo : Local Args(0) { my ( $self, $c ) = @_; $c->response->body("OHAI, COW!"); }` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
