[jifty-devel] Correct place to put GUI helper subroutines

[Andrew Sterling Hanenkamp]

I typically create utility classes that I load to use for common functions:

package MyApp::Util::Date;

require Exporter;
push our @ISA, 'Exporter';

our @EXPORT = qw( pretty_date );

sub pretty_date {
}

# and later

package MyApp::Model::Entry;

use MyApp::Util::Date;

sub show_start_end_date {
    my $self = shift;
    Jifty->web->out(pretty_date($self->start_date) . ' - ' .
pretty_date($self->end_date));

Cheers,
Andrew
