Altering TT's INCLUDE_PATH in Dancer with Custom View

Altering Template Toolkit's INCLUDE_PATH in Dancer

This just came up on Dancer's mailing list and I've been sitting on this code (and post) for a few months since the project I was working on didn't need it.

Basically Dancer's Template Toolkit view requires you completely alter it or use the default setting. This is pain if you just want to add to it but not have to manage all the changes.

I created a new TT view class, to get inside the TT init and add to the INCLUDE_PATH instead of replace it. The code was a bit involved and I extended it a bit by adding a customization flag in each environment (if needed).

On to the code

Here is the code and config that i used to do this

Disclaimer

I don't recall all the other issues that i ran into while doing this. It was over 6 months ago but post questions if you have them
