Template::Plugin::Dumper - Plugin interface to Data::Dumper
[% USE Dumper %]
[% Dumper.dump(variable) %]
[% Dumper.dump_html(variable) %]This is a very simple Template Toolkit Plugin Interface to the Data::Dumper module. A Dumper object will be instantiated via the following directive:
[% USE Dumper %]As a standard plugin, you can also specify its name in lower case:
[% USE dumper %]The Data::Dumper Pad, Indent and Varname options are supported as constructor arguments to affect the output generated. See Data::Dumper for further details.
[% USE dumper(Indent=0, Pad="<br>") %]These options can also be specified in lower case.
[% USE dumper(indent=0, pad="<br>") %]There are two methods supported by the Dumper object. Each will output into the template the contents of the variables passed to the object method.
Generates a raw text dump of the data structure(s) passed
[% USE Dumper %]
[% Dumper.dump(myvar) %]
[% Dumper.dump(myvar, yourvar) %]Generates a dump of the data structures, as per dump(), but with the characters <, > and & converted to their equivalent HTML entities and newlines converted to <br>.
