NAME
    Catalyst - The Elegant MVC Web Application Framework

SYNOPSIS
        use Catalyst;

        use Catalyst qw/My::Module My::OtherModule/;

        use Catalyst '-Debug';

        use Catalyst qw/-Debug -Engine=CGI/;

        __PACKAGE__->action( '!default' => sub { $_[1]->res->output('Hello') } );

        __PACKAGE__->action(
            'index.html' => sub {
                my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
                $c->res->output('Hello');
                $c->forward('_foo');
            }
        );

        __PACKAGE__->action(
            '/^product[_]*(\d*).html$/' => sub {
                my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
                $c->stash->{template} = 'product.tt';
                $c->stash->{product} = $c->req->snippets->[0];
            }
        );

DESCRIPTION
    Catalyst is based upon Maypole, which you should consider for smaller
    projects.

    The key concept of Catalyst is DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself).

    See Catalyst::Manual for more documentation.

    Omit the Catalyst::Plugin:: prefix from plugins. So
    Catalyst::Plugin::My::Module becomes My::Module.

        use Catalyst 'My::Module';

    You can also set special flags like -Debug and -Engine.

        use Catalyst qw/-Debug My::Module/;

    The position of plugins and flags in the chain is important, because
    they are loaded in the same order they appear.

  -Debug
        use Catalyst '-Debug';

    is equivalent to

        use Catalyst;
        sub debug { 1 }

  -Engine
    Force Catalyst to use a specific engine. Omit the Catalyst::Engine::
    prefix.

        use Catalyst '-Engine=CGI';

  METHODS
   debug
    Overload to enable debug messages.

   config
    Returns a hashref containing your applications settings.
