The Catalyst Continuation Plugin is a software tool that extends the functionality of the Catalyst framework. With this plugin, developers can easily create and manage web applications with enhanced features such as continuations, enabling long-running transactions and improved user experience.
Catalyst::Plugin::Continuation is a plugin for the Catalyst web framework that offers Continuations support. Continuations offer web developers a way to create seamless, multi-page workflows that appear to users as a single page.
To use this plugin, be sure to load session plugins as well. Users can take advantage of a package that includes Catalyst's Session, Session::Store::File, Session::State::Cookie and Continuation.
After setting up the plugin, users can create a controller package and add an action with an attached action class. In the example code provided, the MyApp::Controller::Test controller is set up and a counter action is added, with a $up and $down continuation to support the counter's increment and decrement features.
The counter action uses the Catalyst->continue() method to create the $up and $down continuations, respectively. The counter is saved to the Catalyst stash and can be incremented or decremented simply by altering the stash.
Overall, Catalyst::Plugin::Continuation is a powerful tool for developers using the Catalyst framework who want to provide a seamless, multi-page user experience without losing the user's context.
