Lets see the steps to install catalyst in a easy way.
Download svndump.gz from http://handelframework.com/downloads/
Extract/unzip the items from svndump.gz
For windows:
open a command prompt
-------------------------
- Goto -> Run->cmd
Change directory to CatInABox/bin
------------------------------------
> cd CatInABox/bin folder
Run catalyst.bat
----------------
Run catalyst.bat along with your Application name. Say my application name is 'Testapp', i would run
> catalyst.bat Testapp
Now you are done with creating your application. To start the server, change directory to your Testapp/script and start the server.
cd Testapp/script
perl testapp_server.pl
Now your application is up and running. To view it. Goto browser and checkhttp://localhost:3000 . you should be able to view the application.
For unix flavors:
Repeat the same procedure for unix boxes. Instead of catalyst.bat use catalyst.pl
catalyst.pl Testapp
To create a TT view, run:
$ script/testapp_create.pl view TT TTThis creates the lib/Testapp/View/TT.pm module, which is a subclass of Catalyst::View::TT.
To create a new Controller, run:(say i am creating controller User)
$ perl script/testapp_create.pl controller User
This will create "/lib/TestApp/Controller/User.pm" and "/t/controller_user.t"dot(.) t files are used for testing.
To create a database Model
Before creating model, read: http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=700283
You need a database, it is recommened to use SQLite, if your application is small. Since its a "embedded" database. so the database exists as a single file and requires no server to run.
$ $ perl script/testapp_create.pl model TestDb DBIC::Schema \ Testapp::Schema::TestDb create=dynamic \ dbi:SQLite:/tmp/database
