Using Other Templating Systems

HTML::Template support is built into CGI::Application

Many other Perl templating systems can be used (e.g.: Template Toolkit, Mason)

Simply write a replacement for load_tmpl in your module:


       sub load_tmpl {
           my ($webapp) = @_;
           require Template;
           # create & initialize a Template Toolkit object
           return Template->new(%config);
       }

       sub some_run_mode {
          # ...
          my $template = $webapp->load_tmpl();
          $template->process('some.tmpl', $vars);
       }
