To respond to myself, the problem was that, in the Jifty::Plugin::Login
dispatcher, the class attached to any actions must be fully qualified. In other
words, this works:
# Login
on 'login' => run {
set 'action' =>
Jifty->web->new_action(
class => 'Jifty::Plugin::Login::Action::Login', # fully qualified
moniker => 'loginbox'
);
set 'next' => Jifty->web->request->continuation
|| Jifty::Continuation->new(
request => Jifty::Request->new( path => "/" ) );
};
It would be nice if there was a way make a loop over both the app class and any
plugin classes before throwing an error, possibly at /lib/Jifty/Web.pm:405.
Now that I have this working, I can work out how to best handle the app user
objects (just subclass the plugin's user objects?).
