#lang scribble/manual @(require "mb-tools.rkt") @(require scribble/eval pollen/cache pollen/world (for-label racket (except-in pollen #%module-begin) pollen/world pollen/render)) @(define my-eval (make-base-eval)) @(my-eval `(require pollen pollen/world)) @title{World} @defmodule[pollen/world] Global values that are used throughout the Pollen system. @section{Parameters} I mean @italic{parameters} in the Racket sense, i.e. values that can be fed to @racket[parameterize]. @defparam[world:current-server-port port integer?]{ A parameter that sets the HTTP port for the project server. Initialized to @racket[world:default-port].} @defparam[world:current-project-root port path?]{ A parameter that holds the root directory of the current project (e.g., the directory where you launched @code{raco pollen start}).} @defparam[world:current-server-extras-path dir path?]{ A parameter that reports the path to the directory of support files for the project server. Initialized to @racket[#f], but set to a proper value when the server runs.} @defparam[world:check-directory-requires-in-render? check? boolean?]{ A parameter that determines whether the @racket[world:directory-require] file is checked for changes on every pass through @racket[render]. (Can be faster to turn this off if you don't need it.) Initialized to @racket[#t].} @section[#:tag "settable-values"]{Settable values} These values can be changed by overriding them in your @racket["directory-require.rkt"] source file. Within this file, @seclink["submodules" #:doc '(lib "scribblings/guide/guide.scrbl")]{create a submodule} called @racket[config]. Then within this submodule, use @racket[define] to make a variable with the same name as the one in @racket[pollen/world], but without the @racket[world:] prefix. Assign it whatever value you like. Repeat as needed. When Pollen runs, these definitions will supersede those in @racket[pollen/world]. For instance, suppose you wanted the main export of every Pollen source file to be called @racket[van-halen] rather than @racket[doc], the extension of Pollen markup files to be @racket[.rock] rather than @racket[.pm], and the command character to be @litchar{🎸} instead of @litchar{◊}. Your @racket["directory-require.rkt"] would look like this: @fileblock["directory-require.rkt" @codeblock{ #lang racket/base ;; ... the usual definitions and tag functions ... (module config racket/base (provide (all-defined-out)) (define main-export 'van-halen) (define markup-source-ext 'rock) (define command-char #\🎸)) }] Though any of the values below can be overridden, it may not always be wise to do so. For instance, if you redefined @racket[world:fallback-template-prefix], you would simply break the fallback-template mechanism, because it would look for files that don't exist. But we don't live in a nanny state, so you are entrusted to say what you mean and accept the consequences. Of course, you can restore the defaults simply by deleting these defined values from @racket["directory-require.rkt"]. These settable values are each equipped with a corresponding @racket[world:current-]@racket[_settable-value] function that will return the value loaded from the @racket[config] submodule (if @racket[_settable-value] was defined there), otherwise the default given by @racket[world:]@racket[_settable-value]. For instance, @racket[world:command-char] will always be @litchar{◊}, but in the example above, @racket[world:current-command-char] would return @litchar{🎸}. @defoverridable[default-port integer?]{ Determines the default HTTP port for the project server.
