Use Mojolicious action as title in template

Question

I'm trying to make the default "title" variable in stash be set to the English version of the action name. For example:

sub customer_orders {
    ...
}

Would have:

title => 'Customer Orders',

Available in the stash for the templates to use. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

Answer 1

It looks like $c->action is available in Mojolicious templates as $action. So you can just do this:

<title><%= title || action_to_title($action) %>

This way other templates can override the title like so:

% title 'My Override Title'

And you can add the action_to_title helper to prepare the action for a title if title is not set.
