DESCRIPTION

Use Text::Forge templates as Catalyst views.

Text::Forge templates are very similar to ERB/ASP/PHP in syntax. See the Text::Forge module for details.

Templates are passed two parameters, the stash and the Catalyst object itself.

Example template:

  <% my $s = shift; # now contains $c->stash %>
  <h1>Hello, <%= $s->{name} %><h1>
  <p>
    The current time is <%= scalar localtime %>.
  </p>

The catalyst object can also be obtained through $forge->catalyst() from any template.
