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

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into columns

2 ways to get SQLite to put dates into a column.
insert into mytable values( null, datetime('now') );insert into mytable values( null, strftime('%s', 'now'));The first one inserts a row somewhat like this:
1|2009-03-10 18:47:46

The second inserts an unix timestamp:
2|1236711411

It might be best to use that unix timestamp with an integer column type for dates since SQLite doesn't support a datetime one.

It makes comparisons and ordering much easier:
select * from dt where lu > strftime('%s', '2009-03-10');

Output of:
id|lu
6|1236643200
2|1236711411
3|1236711516
4|1236711518
5|1236711519But the formatting is pretty ugly. :-/

Hey what about formatting it within the select with the SQLite datetime function:
select id, datetime(lu, 'unixepoch') lu from dt order by lu;
id|lu
6|2009-03-10 00:00:00
2|2009-03-10 18:56:51
3|2009-03-10 18:58:36
4|2009-03-10 18:58:38
5|2009-03-10 18:58:39
Better but having to add that to each select is kind of a pain. I like adding…

BootstrapX clickover

Birth
The last few weeks, i've been pushing Bootstrap in various directions. Most of the time, its being hacking around Popovers. Our current design uses Popovers with forms. It provides a very nice balance between in page action and more subtle interruption to viewing the page than a modal.

Over the last few weeks, I've found a few quirks with using Popover's trigger action of 'focus'. This works fine with forms but on Chrome and Safari 'focus' events are supported incompletely. In addition to that varied support we have a few other needs that inspired a new Bootstrap extension. BootstrapX - Clickover.

Our requirements are:
Click button/link/icon to toggle display of popover contentOption to click 'away' from popover to closeAbility to have 'popover' autoclose after some amount of timeOption to have element inside of popover hide it
I suspect, in the future, it will need to only auto close when user's mouse leaves the clickover.

What's installed on my ec2

What's installed on my ec2? I swear between debian/ubuntu/mac os x/irix (well not anymore), I can never remember how to list installed packages on my ec2. 
Here is is:

sudo yum list installed
Plus or minus sudo depending on who you are. For once, the command is what i'd expect.
