NAME
Catalyst::View::RRDGraph - RRD Graph View Class
SYNOPSIS
use the helper to create your View myapp_create.pl view RRDGraph
RRDGraph
from the controller:
sub routine :Local {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$c->stash->{'graph'} = [
"--lower-limit", "0",
"--start", "end-1d",
"--vertical-label", "My Label",
"--height", 600,
"--width", 300,
"DEF:Data=/path/to/rrd.rrd:data:AVERAGE",
"AREA:Data#0000FF:Data "
];
$c->forward('MyApp::View::RRDGraph');
}
DESCRIPTION
This view generates RRD graph images from the graph defintion placed in
the stash. The controller is responsable of placing an ARRAYREF in
$c-stash->{'graph'}> with the same data as to generate a graph with the
RRDs module, except for *filename*, that will be automatically generated
by the view.
It doesn't depend on RRDs, but *does* need it to work (and for the tests
to pass). You can install RRDs, for instance, using Alien::RRDtool, or
compiling it manually from
CONFIGURATION
Configurations for the view are:
IMG_DIR
Directory to generate temporary image files. Defaults to /tmp/
IMG_FORMAT
Image format for the generated files. 'PNG' by default.
ON_ERROR_SERVE
On error, if this config value is set, the file to which it points will
be served (so you can serve an "error image" file to the user).
Alternately, it can be set to a code reference, that will called with
$self, $c and $error. You can then generate your own content in this
handler. Default (leaving undefined) is to throw an expception.
See for more info.
METHODS
