I want to use fancy postfix dereferencing in my Mojo templates. I suppose I could do 

% use experimental 'postderef';

at the top of every template file, but that seems repetitive and lame. Is there a way I can make Mojolicious import my pragma preferences to the lexical scope of every template?

You can reload EPRenderer plugin with own options (default is without options), option template contains default values for Mojo::Template.

use Mojolicious::Lite;

plugin 'EPRenderer', template => { prepend  => 'use experimental "postderef";use Data::Dump "pp";'};

get '/' => sub { shift->render('index'); };

app->start;
__DATA__

@@ index.html.ep
% layout 'default';
% title 'Welcome';

Welcome to the Mojolicious real-time web framework!

% my $a = [[0]];
% push $a->[0]->@*, 1;
%=  pp($a)

@@ layouts/default.html.ep
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head><title><%= title %></title></head>
  <body><%= content %>

  </body>
</html>

If you use that pragma in your Mojolicious App, it should work for the templates as well.

If not, then you could add it to a layout and use that layout from your templates.

    Adding the pragma to the app does not affect the templates (since they're compiled in a different scope.) But adding it to the layout is an idea I haven't tried. I'll give it a shot. – friedo Jul 25 '14 at 20:00
  • Sadly it looks like adding the pragma to the layout has no effect on the templates that use it. – friedo Jul 25 '14 at 20:06
