Rendering Variant

[Stefan Adams]

From the Rendering Guide:

$c->render('foo/bar/baz', variant => 'phone');

What's a good way to recognize that the variant => 'phone' variable should be set?

That is, I wouldn't have a route action like this:

get '/' => sub {

  my $c = shift;

  $c->render('foo/bar/baz', variant => 'phone');

};

Because then all user agents would get the phone variant, and then what's the point of a variant?

Instead, one would need something like:

get '/' => sub {

  my $c = shift;

  $c->render('foo/bar/baz', variant => $c->is_mobile ? 'phone' : '');

};

I see that there is a plugin Mojolicious::Plugin::Mobi.  Is that the way to do it?  Use its is_mobile() helper to determine whether or not to set the variant to phone?

Ah wonderful! Thank you for pointing that out!

No matter how many times I read the docs I'll never be able to retain it all at once! :)
