Mojolicious::Routes::Route - Route

  use Mojolicious::Routes::Route;
  my $r = Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new;

Mojolicious::Routes::Route is the route container used by Mojolicious::Routes.

Mojolicious::Routes::Route implements the following attributes.

  my $children = $r->children;
  $r           = $r->children([Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new]);

The children of this route, used for nesting routes.

  my $bool = $r->inline;
  $r       = $r->inline($bool);

Allow "under" semantics for this route.

  my $parent = $r->parent;
  $r         = $r->parent(Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new);

The parent of this route, usually a Mojolicious::Routes::Route object. Note that this attribute is weakened.

  my $bool = $r->partial;
  $r       = $r->partial($bool);

Route has no specific end, remaining characters will be captured in "path".

  my $pattern = $r->pattern;
  $r          = $r->pattern(Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern->new);

Pattern for this route, defaults to a Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern object.

Mojolicious::Routes::Route inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

  $r = $r->add_child(Mojolicious::Routes::Route->new);

Add a child to this route, it will be automatically removed from its current parent if necessary.

  # Reattach route
  $r->add_child($r->find('foo'));


  my $route = $r->any;
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo');
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => sub {...} => 'name');
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => {foo => 'bar'} => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/] => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->any('/:foo' => (agent => qr/Firefox/) => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->any(['GET', 'POST'] => '/:foo' => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->any(['GET', 'POST'] => '/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/]);

Generate Mojolicious::Routes::Route object matching any of the listed HTTP request methods or all.

  # Route with pattern and destination
  $r->any('/user')->to('user#whatever');

All arguments are optional, but some have to appear in a certain order, like the two supported array reference values, which contain the HTTP methods to match and restrictive placeholders.

  # Route with HTTP methods, pattern, restrictive placeholders and destination
  $r->any(['DELETE', 'PUT'] => '/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/])->to('foo#bar');

There are also two supported string values, containing the route pattern and the route name, defaulting to the pattern "/" and a name based on the pattern.

  # Route with pattern, name and destination
  $r->any('/:foo' => 'foo_route')->to('foo#bar');

An arbitrary number of key/value pairs in between the route pattern and name can be used to specify route conditions.

  # Route with pattern, condition and destination
  $r->any('/' => (agent => qr/Firefox/))->to('foo#bar');

A hash reference is used to specify optional placeholders and default values for the stash.

  # Route with pattern, optional placeholder and destination
  $r->any('/:foo' => {foo => 'bar'})->to('foo#bar');

And a code reference can be used to specify a "cb" value to be merged into the default values for the stash.

  # Route with pattern and a closure as destination
  $r->any('/:foo' => sub {
    my $c = shift;
    $c->render(text => 'Hello World!');
  });

See Mojolicious::Guides::Tutorial and Mojolicious::Guides::Routing for more information.

  my $route = $r->delete;
  my $route = $r->delete('/:foo');

  my $route = $r->delete('/:foo' => {foo => 'bar'} => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->delete('/:foo' => [foo => qr/\w+/] => sub {...});
  my $route = $r->delete('/:foo' => (agent => qr/Firefox/) => sub {...});

Generate Mojolicious::Routes::Route object matching only "DELETE" requests, takes the same arguments as "any" (except for the HTTP methods to match, which are implied). See Mojolicious::Guides::Tutorial and Mojolicious::Guides::Routing for more information.

  # Route with destination
  $r->delete('/user')->to('user#remove');


  $r = $r->detour(action => 'foo');
  $r = $r->detour('controller#action');
  $r = $r->detour(Mojolicious->new, foo => 'bar');
  $r = $r->detour('MyApp', {foo => 'bar'});

Set default parameters for this route and allow partial matching to simplify application embedding, takes the same arguments as "to".

  my $route = $r->find('foo');

Find child route by name, custom names have precedence over automatically generated ones.

  # Change default parameters of a named route
  $r->find('show_user')->to(foo => 'bar');


  my $route = $r->get;
  my $route = $r->get('/:foo');
  my $route = $r->get('/:foo' => sub {...});

  my $bool = $r->is_websocket;

Check if this route is a WebSocket.

  my $name = $r->name;
  $r       = $r->name('foo');

The name of this route, defaults to an automatically generated name based on the route pattern. Note that the name "current" is reserved for referring to the current route.

  # Route with destination and custom name
  $r->get('/user')->to('user#show')->name('show_user');


  my $route = $r->options;

  $r       = $r->over([foo => 1, bar => {baz => 'yada'}]);

Activate conditions for this route. Note that this automatically disables the routing cache, since conditions are too complex for caching.

  # Route with condition and destination
  $r->get('/foo')->over(host => qr/mojolicious\.org/)->to('foo#bar');

Generate Mojolicious::Routes::Route object for a nested route with its own intermediate destination, takes the same arguments as "any" (except for the HTTP methods to match, which are not available). See Mojolicious::Guides::Tutorial and Mojolicious::Guides::Routing for more information.

  # Add a "firefox" shortcut
  $r->root->add_shortcut(firefox => sub {
    my ($r, $path) = @_;
    $r->get($path, agent => qr/Firefox/);
  });
