=head1 NAME

Dancer2::Manual::Cookbook - Example-driven quick-start to the Dancer2 web framework

=head1 VERSION

version 2.1.0

=head1 Description

A quick-start guide with examples to get you up and running with the Dancer2
web framework. This document will be twice as useful if you finish reading
the manual (L<Dancer2::Manual>) first, but that is not required... :-)

=head1 Route Recipes

=head2 The simplest Dancer2 web app

Dancer2 has been designed to be easy to work with - it's trivial to write a
simple web app, but still has the power to work with larger projects. To
start with, let's make an incredibly simple "Hello World" example:

    #!/usr/bin/env perl
    package MyApp;
    use Dancer2;

    get '/' => sub {
        return "Hello, world!";
    };

    MyApp->to_app();

Yes - the above is a fully-functioning web app; running that script with
C<plackup MyApp.psgi> will launch a webserver listening on the default
port (5000). Now you can make a request:

    $ curl http://localhost:5000/
    Hello, world!

Note that you don't need to use the C<strict> and C<warnings> pragmas; they
are already loaded by Dancer2.

=head2 Default Route

You can set up a default route to help trap C<404> errors in a
consistent way, or to handle multiple routes in a consistent
manner. A default route handler will handle any request that doesn't get
served by any other route.

All you need to do is set up the following route as the B<last> route:

    any qr{.*} => sub {
        status 'not_found';
        template 'special_404', { path => request->path };
    };

Then you can set up the F<special_404.tt> template like so:

    You tried to reach [% path %], but it is unavailable at the moment.

    Please try again or contact us at <contact@example.com>.

=head2 Using the C<auto_page> feature for automatic route creation

For simple "static" pages you can simply enable the C<auto_page> config
setting; this means you don't need to declare a route handler for those
pages; if a request is for C</foo/bar>, Dancer2 will check for a matching
view (e.g. C</foo/bar.tt>) and render it with the default layout, if
found. For full details, see the documentation for the L<auto_page
setting|Dancer2::Config/"auto_page">.

=head2 Enabling and disabling routes with config and Module::Runtime

For various reasons you may want to be able to turn routes on and off in
your app without having to comment out sections of code. This is easily
accomplished if you encapsulate each route handler (or group of related
handlers) in a separate module, and load the wanted routes at runtime.

In C<MyApp::Route::Foo>:

    package MyApp::Route::Foo;

    use Dancer2 appname => 'MyApp';

    get '/foo' => sub { return "bar" };

In C<MyApp::Route::Baz>:

    package MyApp::Route::Baz;

    use Dancer2 appname => 'MyApp';

    get '/baz' => sub { return "qux" };

In your C<config.yaml>:

    route_modules :
        Foo : 1
        Baz : 0

In your main route controller:

    use Dancer2;
    use Module::Runtime 'require_module';

    my $module_base = 'MyApp::Route::';

    my %modules = %{ config->{route_modules} };

    my @required_modules = grep { $modules{$_} } keys %modules;

    require_module( $module_base . $_ ) for @required_modules;

Now your app will expose C</foo> but requests to C</baz> will return a
404 response.

=head2 Using the prefix feature to split your application

For better maintainability, you may want to separate some of your application
components into different packages. Let's say we have a simple web app with an
admin section and want to maintain this in a different package:

    package myapp;
    use Dancer2;
    use myapp::admin;

    prefix undef;

    get '/' => sub {...};

    1;

    package myapp::admin;
    use Dancer2 appname => 'myapp';

    prefix '/admin';

    get '/' => sub {...};

    1;

The following routes will be generated for us:

    - get /
    - get /admin/
    - head /
    - head /admin/

By default, a separate application is created for every package that uses
Dancer2. The C<appname> tag is used to collect routes and hooks into a
single Dancer2 application. In the above example, C<appname =E<gt> 'myapp'>
adds the routes from C<myapp::admin> to the routes of the app C<myapp>.

When using multiple applications please ensure that your path definitions do
not overlap. For example, if using a default route as described above, once
a request is matched to the default route then no further routes (or
applications) will be reached.

=head1 Template Recipes

=head2 UsingTemplate Toolkit's WRAPPER directive in Dancer2

Dancer2 already provides a WRAPPER-like ability, which we call a "layout".
The reason we don't use Template Toolkit's WRAPPER (which also makes us
incompatible with it) is because not all template systems support it.
In fact, most don't.

However, you might want to use it to be able to define C<META> and
regular L<Template::Toolkit> variables.

These few steps will get you there:

=over 4

=item * Disable the layout in Dancer2

You can do this by simply commenting (or removing) the C<layout>
configuration in the config file.

=item * Use the Template Toolkit template engine

Change the configuration of the template to Template Toolkit:

    # in config.yml
    template: "template_toolkit"

=item * Tell the Template Toolkit engine which wrapper to use

    # in config.yml
    # ...
    engines:
        template:
            template_toolkit:
                WRAPPER: layouts/main.tt

=back

Done! Everything will work fine out of the box, including variables and
C<META> variables.

Please note that disabling the internal layout it will also disable the
hooks C<before_layout_render> and C<after_layout_render>.

=head2 Customizing Template Toolkit in Dancer2

Please see L<Dancer2::Template::TemplateToolkit|Dancer2::Template::TemplateToolkit/"ADVANCED CUSTOMIZATION">
for more details.

=head1 Error Recipes

=head2 Delivering custom error pages

=head3 At the Core

In Dancer2, creating new errors is done by creating a new L<Dancer2::Core::Error>

     my $oopsie = Dancer2::Core::Error->new(
         status  => 418,
         message => "This is the Holidays. Tea not acceptable. We want eggnog.",
         app     => $app,
     )

If not given, the status code defaults to a 500, there is no need for a message if
we feel taciturn, and while the C<$app> (which is a I<Dancer2::Core::App>
object holding all the pieces of information related to the current request) is
needed if we want to take advantage of the templates, we can also do without.

However, to be seen by the end user, we have to populate the L<Dancer2::Core::Response>
object with the error's data. This is done via:

     $oopsie->throw($response);

Or, if we want to use the response object already present in the C<$app>
(which is usually the case):

     $oopsie->throw;

This populates the status code of the response, sets its content, and throws a
I<halt()> in the dispatch process.

=head3 What it will look like?

The error object has quite a few ways to generate its content.

First, it can be explicitly given

     my $oopsie = Dancer2::Core::Error->new(
         content => '<html><body><h1>OMG</h1></body></html>',
     );

If the C<$content> was not given, the error will check if there is a
template by the name of the status code (so, say you're using Template
Toolkit, F<418.tt>) and will use it to generate the content, passing it
the error's C<$message>, C<$status> code and C<$title> (which, if not
specified, will be the standard HTTP error definition for the status code).

If there is no template, the error will then look for a static page (to
continue with our example, F<418.html>) in the F<public/> directory.

And finally, if all of that failed, the error object will fall back on
an internal template.

=head3 Errors in Routes

The simplest way to use errors in routes is:

     get '/xmas/gift/:gift' => sub {
         die "sorry, we're all out of ponies\n"
             if route_parameters->get('gift') eq 'pony';
     };

The die will be intercepted by Dancer, converted into an error (status
code 500, message set to the dying words) and passed to the response.

In the cases where more control is required, C<send_error()> is the way to go:

     get '/glass/eggnog' => sub {
         send_error "Sorry, no eggnog here", 418;
     };

And if total control is needed:

     get '/xmas/wishlist' => sub {
         Dancer2::Core::Error->new(
             response => response(),
             status   => 406,
             message  => "nothing but coal for you, I'm afraid",
             template => 'naughty/index',
         )->throw unless user_was_nice();

         ...;
     };

=head1 Configuration Recipes

=head2 Accessing configuration information from a separate script

You may want to access your webapp's configuration from outside your
webapp. You could, of course, use the YAML module of your choice and load
your webapps's F<config.yml>, but chances are that this is not convenient.

Use Dancer2 instead. You can simply use the values from F<config.yml>
and some additional default values:

    # bin/show_app_config.pl
    use Dancer2;
    printf "template: %s\n", config->{'template'}; # simple
    printf "log: %s\n",      config->{'log'};      # undef

Note that C<< config->{log} >> should result in an uninitialized warning
on a default scaffold since the environment isn't loaded and
log is defined in the environment but not in F<config.yml>. Hence C<undef>.

Dancer2 will load your F<config.yml> configuration file along with the
correct environment file located in your F<environments/> directory.

The environment is determined by two environment variables in the following
order:

=over 4

=item * DANCER_ENVIRONMENT

=item * PLACK_ENV

=back

If neither of those is set, it will default to loading the development
environment (typically C<$webapp/environment/development.yml>).

If you wish to load a different environment, you need to override these
variables.

You can call your script with the environment changed:

    $ PLACK_ENV=production perl bin/show_app_config.pl

Or you can override them directly in the script (less recommended):

    BEGIN { $ENV{'DANCER_ENVIRONMENT'} = 'production' }
    use Dancer2;

    ...

=head1 Database Recipes

=head2 Using DBIx::Class

L<DBIx::Class>, also known as DBIC, is one of the many Perl ORM
(I<Object Relational Mapper>) frameworks. It is easy to use DBIC in Dancer2
using L<Dancer2::Plugin::DBIx::Class>.

This example demonstrates a simple Dancer2 application that allows one to search
for authors or books. The application is connected to a database that contains
authors and their books. The website will have a single page with a form
that allows one to query books or authors and display the results.

=head3 Creating the application

    $ dancer2 gen -a bookstore

To use the Template Toolkit as the template engine, specify it in the
configuration file:

    # add in bookstore/config.yml
    template: template_toolkit

=head3 Creating the view

We need a view to display the search form and the results, if any. The
results will be fed by the route to the view as an arrayref of results. Each
result is a hashref, with a author key containing the name of the author, and
a books key containing an arrayref of strings: the books' names.

    # example of a list of results
    [ { author => 'author 1',
        books => [ 'book 1', 'book 2' ],
      },
      { author => 'author 2',
        books => [ 'book 3', 'book 4' ],
      }
    ]

    # bookstore/views/search.tt
    <p>
    <form action="/search">
    Search query: <input type="text" name="query" />
    </form>
    </p>
    <br>

An example of the view displaying the search form and results, if any:

    <% IF query.length %>
      <p>Search query was : <% query %>.</p>
      <% IF results.size %>
        Results:
        <ul>
        <% FOREACH result IN results %>
          <li>Author: <% result.author.replace("((?i)$query)", '<b>$1</b>') %>
          <ul>
          <% FOREACH book IN result.books %>
            <li><% book.replace("((?i)$query)", '<b>$1</b>') %>
          <% END %>
          </ul>
        <% END %>
      <% ELSE %>
        No result
      <% END %>
    <% END %>

=head3 Creating a Route

A simple route, to be added in the C<Bookstore.pm> module:

    # add in bookstore/lib/Bookstore.pm
    get '/search' => sub {
        my $query   = query_parameters->get('query');
        my @results = ();

        if ( length $query ) {
            @results = _perform_search($query);
        }

        template search => {
            query   => $query,
            results => \@results,
        };
    };

=head3 Creating a database

We create a SQLite file database:

    $ sqlite3 bookstore.db
    CREATE TABLE author(
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL,
        firstname text default '' not null,
        lastname text not null
    );

    CREATE TABLE book(
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL,
        author INTEGER REFERENCES author (id),
        title text default '' not null
    );

Now, to populate the database with some data, we use L<DBIx::Class>:

    # populate_database.pl
    package My::Bookstore::Schema;
    use base qw(DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader);
    package main;
    my $schema = My::Bookstore::Schema->connect('dbi:SQLite:dbname=bookstore.db');
    $schema->populate('Author', [
        [ 'firstname', 'lastname'],
        [ 'Ian M.',    'Banks'   ],
        [ 'Richard',   'Matheson'],
        [ 'Frank',     'Herbert' ],
    ]);
    my @books_list = (
        [ 'Consider Phlebas',    'Banks'    ],
        [ 'The Player of Games', 'Banks'    ],
        [ 'Use of Weapons',      'Banks'    ],
        [ 'Dune',                'Herbert'  ],
        [ 'Dune Messiah',        'Herbert'  ],
        [ 'Children of Dune',    'Herbert'  ],
        [ 'The Night Stalker',   'Matheson' ],
        [ 'The Night Strangler', 'Matheson' ],
    );
    # transform author names into ids
    $_->[1] = $schema->resultset('Author')->find({ lastname => $_->[1] })->id
        foreach (@books_list);
    $schema->populate('Book', [
        [ 'title', 'author' ],
        @books_list,
    ]);

Then run it in the directory where F<bookstore.db> sits:

    perl populate_database.db

=head3 Using Dancer2::Plugin::DBIx::Class

There are 2 ways of configuring DBIC to understand how the data is organized
in your database:

=over 4

=item * Use auto-detection

The configuration file needs to be updated to indicate the use of the
Dancer2::Plugin::DBIx::Class plugin, define a new DBIC schema called C<Bookstore> and
to indicate that this schema is connected to the SQLite database we created.

    # add in bookstore/config.yml
    plugins:
      DBIC:
        Bookstore:
          dsn:  "dbi:SQLite:dbname=bookstore.db"

Now, C<_perform_search> can be implemented using L<Dancer2::Plugin::DBIx::Class>. The
plugin gives you access to an additional keyword called B<schema>, which you
give the name of schema you want to retrieve. It returns a C<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader>
which can be used to get a resultset and perform searches, as per standard
usage of DBIX::Class.

    # add in bookstore/lib/Bookstore.pm
    sub _perform_search {
        my ($query) = @_;
        my $bookstore_schema = schema 'Bookstore';
        my @results;
        # search in authors
        my @authors = $bookstore_schema->resultset('Author')->search({
            -or => [
                firstname => { like => "%$query%" },
                lastname  => { like => "%$query%" },
          ]
        });
        push @results, map {
            { author => join(' ', $_->firstname, $_->lastname),
                books => [],
            }
        } @authors;
        my %book_results;
        # search in books
        my @books = $bookstore_schema->resultset('Book')->search({
            title => { like => "%$query%" },
        });
        foreach my $book (@books) {
            my $author_name = join(' ', $book->author->firstname, $book->author->lastname);
            push @{$book_results{$author_name}}, $book->title;
        }
        push @results, map {
            { author => $_,
              books => $book_results{$_},
            }
        } keys %book_results;
        return @results;
    }

=item * Use home made schema classes

The L<DBIx::Class::MooseColumns> lets you write the DBIC schema classes
using L<Moose>. The schema classes should be put in a place that Dancer2
will find. A good place is in F<bookstore/lib/>.

Once your schema classes are in place, all you need to do is modify F<config.yml>
to specify that you want to use them, instead of the default auto-detection method:

    # change in bookstore/config.yml
    plugins:
      DBIC:
        bookstore:
          schema_class: My::Bookstore::Schema
          dsn: "dbi:SQLite:dbname=bookstore.db"

=back

Our bookstore lookup application can now be started using the built-in server:

    # start the web application
    plackup bin/app.psgi

=head1 Authentication Recipes

Writing a form for authentication is simple: we check the user credentials
on a request and decide whether to continue or redirect them to a form.
The form allows them to submit their username and password; we save that
and create a session for them so when they try the original request,
we recognize the user and allow them in.

=head2 Basic Application

The application is fairly simple. We have a route that needs authentication,
we have a route for showing the login page, and we have a route for posting
login information and creating a session.

     package MyApp;
     use Dancer2;

     get '/' => sub {
         session('user')
             or redirect('/login');

         template index => {};
     };

     get '/login' => sub {
         template login => {};
     };

     post '/login' => sub {
         my $username  = query_parameters->get('username');
         my $password  = query_parameters->get('password');
         my $redir_url = query_parameters->get('redirect_url') || '/login';

         $username eq 'john' && $password eq 'correcthorsebatterystaple'
             or redirect $redir_url;

         session user => $username;
         redirect $redir_url;
     };

=head2 Tiny Authentication Helper

L<Dancer2::Plugin::Auth::Tiny> allows you to abstract away not only the
part that checks whether the session exists, but to also generate a
redirect with the right path and return URL.

We simply have to define what routes needs a login using Auth::Tiny's
C<needs> keyword.

     get '/' => needs login => sub {
         template index => {};
     };

It creates a proper return URL using C<uri_for> and the address from which
the user arrived.

We can thus decorate all of our private routes to require authentication in
this manner. If a user does not have a session, it will automatically forward
it to I</login>, in which we would render a form for the user to send a login request.

Auth::Tiny even provides a new parameter, C<return_url>, which can be used to send
the user back to their original requested path.

=head2 Password Hashing

L<Dancer2::Plugin::Passphrase> provides a simple passwords-as-objects interface with
sane defaults for hashed passwords which you can use in your web application. It uses
B<bcrypt> as the default but supports anything the L<Digest> interface does.

Assuming we have the original user-creation form submitting a username and password:

     package MyApp;
     use Dancer2;
     use Dancer2::Plugin::Passphrase;
     post '/register' => sub {
         my $username = query_parameters->get('username');
         my $password = passphrase(
             query_parameters->get('password')
         )->generate;

         # $password is now a hashed password object
         save_user_in_db( $username, $password->rfc2307 );

         template registered => { success => 1 };
     };

We can now add the B<POST> method for verifying that username and password:

     post '/login' => sub {
         my $username   = query_parameters->get('username');
         my $password   = query_parameters->get('password');
         my $saved_pass = fetch_password_from_db($username);

         if ( passphrase($password)->matches($saved_pass) ) {
             session user => $username;
             redirect query_parameters->get('return_url') || '/';
         }

         # let's render instead of redirect...
         template login => { error => 'Invalid username or password' };
     };

=head1 JSON/Serialization/API Recipes

=head2 Writing a REST application

With Dancer2, it's easy to write REST applications. Dancer2 provides helpers
to serialize and deserialize for the following data formats:

=over 4

=item JSON

=item YAML

=item XML

=item Data::Dumper

=back

To activate this feature, you only have to set the C<serializer> setting to
the format you require, for instance in your config file:

   serializer: JSON

Or directly in your code:

   set serializer => 'JSON';

From now, all hashrefs or arrayrefs returned by a route will be serialized
to the format you chose, and all data received from B<POST> or B<PUT>
requests will be automatically deserialized.

    get '/hello/:name' => sub {
        # this structure will be returned to the client as
        # {"name":"$name"}
        return { name => query_parameters->get('name') };
    };

It's possible to let the client choose which serializer to use. For
this, use L<Dancer2::Serializer::Mutable>, and an appropriate serializer will be
chosen from the C<Content-Type> header.

It's also possible to return a custom error using the
L<send_error|Dancer2::Manual::Keywords/send_error> keyword. When you don't
use a serializer, the C<send_error> function will take a string as first
parameter (the message), and an optional HTTP code. When using a serializer,
the message can be a string, an arrayref or a hashref:

    get '/hello/:name' => sub {
        if (...) {
           send_error("you can't do that");
           # or
           send_error({reason => 'access denied', message => "no"});
        }
    };

The content of the error will be serialized using the appropriate
serializer.

=head2 Using the serializer

Serializers essentially do two things:

=over 4

=item * Deserialize incoming requests

When a user makes a request with serialized input, the serializer
automatically deserializes it into actual input parameters.

=item * Serialize outgoing responses

When you return a data structure from a route, it will automatically
serialize it for you before returning it to the user.

=back

=head3 Configuring

In order to configure a serializer, you just need to pick which format
you want for encoding/decoding (e.g. L<JSON|Dancer2::Serializer::JSON>)
and set it up using the C<serializer> configuration keyword.

It is recommended to explicitly add it in the actual code instead of the
configuration file so it doesn't apply automatically to every app that
reads the configuration file (unless that's what you want):

     package MyApp;
     use Dancer2;
     set serializer => 'JSON'; # Dancer2::Serializer::JSON

     ...

=head3 Using

Now that we have a serializer set up, we can just return data structures:

     get '/' => sub {
         return { resources => \%resources };
     };

When we return this data structure, it will automatically be serialized
into JSON. No other code is necessary.

We also now receive requests in JSON:

     post '/:entity/:id' => sub {
         my $entity = route_parameters->get('entity');
         my $id     = route_parameters->get('id');

         # input which was sent serialized
         my $user = body_parameters->get('user');

         ...
     };

We can now make a serialized request:

     $ curl -X POST http://ourdomain/person/16 -d '{"user":"sawyer_x"}'

=head3 Supporting both serialized and non-serialized routes

Serializers are engines. They affect a Dancer Application, which means
that once you've set a serializer, B<all> routes within that package
will be serialized and deserialized. This is how the feature works.

As suggested above, if you would like to have both, you need to create
another application which will not be serialized.

A common usage for this is an API providing serialized endpoints (and
receiving serialized requests) and providing rendered pages.

     # MyApp.pm
     package MyApp;
     use Dancer2;

     # another useful feature:
     set auto_page => 1;

     get '/' => sub { template 'index' => {...} };

     # MyApp/API.pm
     package MyApp::API;
     use Dancer2;
     set serializer => 'JSON'; # or any other serializer

     get '/' => sub { +{ resources => \%resources, ... } };

     # user-specific routes, for example
     prefix '/users' => sub {
         get '/view'     => sub {...};
         get '/view/:id' => sub {...};
         put '/add'      => sub {...}; # automatically deserialized params
     };

     ...

Then those will be mounted together for a single app:

     # handler: app.pl:
     use MyApp;
     use MyApp::API;
     use Plack::Builder;

     builder {
         mount '/'    => MyApp->to_app;
         mount '/api' => MyApp::API->to_app;
     };

If you want use redirect from a mounted package to the application's root
URI, L<Dancer2::Plugin::RootURIFor> makes this possible:

    package OurWiki;
    use Dancer;
    use Dancer2::Plugin::RootURIFor;

    get '/:some_path' => sub {
        redirect root_uri_for('/');
    }

=head3 An example: Writing API interfaces

This example demonstrates an app that makes a request to a weather
API and then displays it dynamically in a web page.

Other than L<Dancer2> for defining routes, we will use L<HTTP::Tiny>
to make the weather API request, L<JSON> to decode it from JSON format,
and finally L<Path::Tiny> to provide a fully-qualified path to our
template engine.

     use JSON;
     use Dancer2;
     use HTTP::Tiny;
     use Path::Tiny;

=head4 Configuration

We use the L<Template::Toolkit> template system for this app.
Dancer searches for our templates in our views directory, which defaults
to I<views> directory in our current directory. Since we want to put our
template in our current directory, we will configure that. However,
I<Template::Toolkit> does not want us to provide a relative path without
configuring it to allow it. This is a security issue. So, we're using
L<Path::Tiny> to create a full path to where we are.

We also unset the default layout, so Dancer won't try to wrap our template
with another one. This is a feature in Dancer to allow you to wrap your
templates with a layout when your templating system doesn't support it. Since
we're not using a layout here, we don't need it.

     set template => 'template_toolkit';        # set template engine
     set layout   => undef;                     # disable layout
     set views    => Path::Tiny->cwd->absolute; # full path to views

Now, we define our URL:

     my $url = 'http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?id=5110629&units=imperial';

=head4 Route

We will define a main route which, upon a request, will fetch the information
from the weather API, decode it, and then display it to the user.

Route definition:

     get '/' => sub {
         ...
     };

Editing the stub of route dispatching code, we start by making the request
and decoding it:

     # fetch data
     my $res = HTTP::Tiny->new->get($url);

     # decode request
     my $data = decode_json $res->{'content'};

The data is not just a flat hash. It's a deep structure. In this example, we
will filter it for only the simple keys in the retrieved data:

     my $metrics = { map +(
         ref $data->{$_} ? () : ( $_ => $data->{$_} )
     ), keys %{$data} };

All that is left now is to render it:

     template index => { metrics => $metrics };

=head3 Example: Feeding graph data through AJAX

Let us assume we are building an application that uses a plotting library
to generate a graph and expects to get its data, which is in the form
of word count from an AJAX call.

For the graph, we need the url C</data> to return a JSON representation
of the word count data. Dancer in fact has a C<encode_json()> function that takes
care of the JSON encapsulation.

     get '/data' => sub {
         open my $fh, '<', $count_file;

         my %contestant;
         while (<$fh>) {
             chomp;
             my ( $date, $who, $count ) = split '\s*,\s*';

             my $epoch = DateTime::Format::Flexible->parse_datetime($date)->epoch;
             my $time = 1000 * $epoch;
             $contestant{$who}{$time} = $count;
         }

         my @json;  # data structure that is going to be JSONified

         while ( my ( $peep, $data ) = each %contestant ) {
             push @json, {
                 label     => $peep,
                 hoverable => \1,    # so that it becomes JavaScript's 'true'
                 data => [ map  { [ $_, $data->{$_} ] }
                         sort { $a <=> $b }
                         keys %$data ],
             };
         }

         my $beginning = DateTime::Format::Flexible->parse_datetime( "2010-11-01")->epoch;
         my $end       = DateTime::Format::Flexible->parse_datetime( "2010-12-01")->epoch;

         push @json, {
             label => 'de par',
             data => [
                 [$beginning * 1000, 0],
                 [   DateTime->now->epoch * 1_000,
                     50_000
                       * (DateTime->now->epoch - $beginning)
                       / ($end - $beginning)
                 ]
               ],

         };

         send_as JSON => \@json ;
     };

=head1 Dessert Recipes

(these are tasty tips and tricks that don't fit anywhere else)

=head2 Turning off warnings

The C<warnings> pragma is already used when one loads Dancer2. However, if
you I<really> do not want the C<warnings> pragma (for example, due to an
undesired warning about use of undef values), add a C<no warnings> pragma to
the appropriate block in your module or psgi file.

=head2 Troubleshooting hooks

You can make troubleshooting hook entries easier by ensuring their coderefs
are named, either by using L<Sub::Util> or using the refs of regular
functions.

        package MyApp;

        use Dancer2;

        use Sub::Util qw/ set_subname /;

        hook 'before_request' => 
            set_subname my_before => sub { ... };

        sub my_after { $::hook_counter++ } 

        hook 'after_request' => \&my_after;

        ...

If you do so, they will appear as part of the core logs:

    [MyApp] core @2025-06-15 15:02:36> Entering hook core.app.before_request in (eval 274) l. 1
    [MyApp] core @2025-06-15 15:02:36> running hook entry App::HookEntries::my_before in (eval 274) l. 1
    [MyApp] core @2025-06-15 15:02:36> Entering hook core.app.after_request in (eval 274) l. 1
    [MyApp] core @2025-06-15 15:02:36> running hook entry Dancer2::Core::App::__ANON__ in (eval 274) l. 1
    [MyApp] core @2025-06-15 15:02:36> running hook entry App::HookEntries::my_after in (eval 274) l. 1
